-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] EUSSET: European Society of Socially Embedded Technologies Datum: Tue, 18 May 2010 02:02:32 +0200 Von: Volker Wulf volker.wulf@fit.fraunhofer.de An: Liste@fit.fraunhofer.de:Wirtschaftsinformatik wi@aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de

Dear colleagues,

we would like to introduce you to the European Society of Socially Embedded Technologies (EUSSET): http://www.eusset.eu/

As new technologies become an increasingly interwoven aspect of our everyday lives, it has become apparent that traditional methods for systems design often lack the detailed understanding of aspects of human, social and cultural life that is required. Our position statement argues in favour of a reorientation of research and design in the broader domain of Human Centred Computing: http://www.eusset.eu/index.php?id=5

We are also on the way to create a legal body around these ideas to make affiliated conferences more visible (ECSCW, C&T, MobileHCI, AVI, COOP, IS-EUD, BritishHCI). Most of their (recent) proceedings are already available for free on the WWW: http://www.eusset.eu/index.php?id=9

EUSSET also build a mailing list of supporters to announce related events, please register at: http://www.eusset.eu/index.php?id=7

Hope you find these developments interesting.

Yours sincerely,

Liam Bannon, Boris de Ruyter, Tom McEwan, Kjeld Schmidt, Ina Wagner, and Volker Wulf
