Aww, my oldest domain name hicom.org was 33 years old yesterday.
It was the only VAX System that Kevin Mitnick ever had a legitimate account on, he lasted less than a week.

Hey #CSCW attendees! I'm a Community Co-Chair for #CSCW2025. This year, we're hoping to help folks coordinate things like: hotel roommates, ride shares to/from the airport, and fun travel activities in Norway before/after the conference. Your input will be helpful for us to time this well. Given that the conference is Oct. 18-22, around what time would you estimate that you'll be booking your travel arrangements? (Blog post coming early this summer!)
As a non-US scientist and citizen, this frightens me for many reasons:
- US-policies like this one could end up having global impact on what kind of science we can do in the future. If US universities can no longer talk about #DEI, how long before conferences under the #ACM (an US-based institution) such as #CSCW stop awarding DEI prizes?
- This could embolden the extreme right in many countries (including France) to adopt similar policies as soon as they manage to seize power.

Ci-dessous deux ouvrages de #CartographieRadicale qui permettent de réfléchir aux changements nécessaires de représentations de nos espaces de vies et de nos relations sociales que notre projet de carte solidaire collaborative cherche à proposer.
Et un entretien de Nephtys Zwer à propos de son dernier livre "Pour un spatio-féminisme" (2024):

A Situated Approach of Roles and Participation in Open Source Software Communities
> We propose a methodology—based on situated analyses of a formal design process used in the Python project—to identify the distribution of actual roles (implementation, interactive, group, and design oriented) performed by participants into and between the spaces (defining boundary spaces).

Socialization in an Open Source Software Community: A Socio-Technical Analysis
> From these analyses it appears that successful participants progressively construct identities as software craftsmen, and that this process is punctuated by specific rites of passage. Successful participants also understand the political nature of software development and progressively enroll a network of human and material allies to support their efforts

Landscapes of Practice: Bricolage as a Method for Situated Design
> This paper proposes a `bricolage' approach to designing systems for cooperative work. This involves users, participatory designers and ethnographers in a continuing cycle of design and revised work practice, often in settings where resources are limited and short-term results are required.
By Aarhus peeps including @heenrik : 'A Farmer, a Place and at least 20 Members': The Development of Artifact Ecologies in Volunteer-based Communities
> The community artifact ecology concept is important for CSCW as it enables framing of the relationship between communities and technologies beyond the single artifact and beyond a static view of a dedicated technology.
And here we go unloading my CSCW related tabs in no particular order :
An Interview with Volker Wulf and Myriam Lewkowicz on “The European Tradition of CSCW”
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12599-018-0525-5
We’re pleased to present our latest work at HICSS 58 in Waikoloa, Hawaii this January. Our study explores the use of LLMs for supporting collaborative ideation. Results from our randomized experiment suggest that LLMs can be used to strengthen anonymity by rephrasing the contributions of the users. However, AI-generated ideas suggestions did not influence significantly the innovativeness of the participants.

Moving with the Times: IT Research and the Boundaries of CSCW
(https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10606-005-3642-x) - JCSCW 05 by Crabtree, Rodden & Benford. They talk about the location based game “can you see me now?” as ludic design, which is also in Benford’s performance-led research paper and make an analogy in CSCW. They cite Hughes and other papers to find several concepts that are common in the game play and CSCW: routines, distributed coordination, working with constant interruption (technical difficulties), distributed awareness, local knowledge (locally situated info), and surreptitious monitoring (reference to their colleagues). I see that this can be also translated to dance context
