[Nettime-bold] Re: welcoming thoughts about activists and 'new media' |
Yes, I can help you there. Also Tiziana Terranova who is at the University of Essex. You might also post to Nettime bbs. By the way, what's your institutional affiliation? Lachlan Brown (416) 826 6937 VM (416) 822 1123 Hello, I'm doing some research with people involved in non-profit organizations an= d their use of 'new media'. I am trying to find out how exactly they use technology to organize and navigate through information, what types of information is transferred between groups and why users essentially engage the technology =8B in this case, for social change. I'm interested in gaining a deeper understanding about horizontal and vertical flows of communication, physical connectivity, data communality, interactivity and ease of use in organizing social-change networks within a technological framework for democratic advancement. I'm preparing a focus group session, and with such a wealth of different ideas/individuals/thoughts on this listserve, I was wondering if any of you had some ideas as to what types of questions you would ask...what explorations do you think are worthy in this area? What specific questions would you ask if you were in this focus group with non-profits? Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide...I will be sure to share any information I gain from the meeting.
