On August 9th I’ll be giving a talk at the Media Sociology Pre-Conference at the Institute for Public Knowledge in New York City. More information here: http://asamediasociology.blogspot.com/. I’ll also be at the American Sociological Association conference the following weekend and week.

On June 7th I’ll be running a panel on youth and new media as part of the Department of Communication’s 30th Anniversary Celebration. The panel will start at 3:15 PM in the IR/PS Gardner Room at UCSD. My panel co-participants are Mary L. Gray (Indiana University and Microsoft Research), Mimi Ito (University of California, Irvine), Robert Lecusay (UCSD), and Lauren Berliner (UCSD).

On May 15th Fernando Dominguez Rubio and I will be hosting a symposium on ‘situated practices’ as part of the Communication Department’s Intellectual Life Series. Carol Padden, Mike Cole, Elana Zilberg, and Patrick Anderson will also be participating. If you’re in San Diego and would like to join, the symposium will run from 12-2PM and will be located in room 201 in the Media Center and Communication building.
