I am proposing my dissertation research at 10am EST in the Gates-Hillman Centerroom 6115 on Carnegie Mellon campus. My proposal will describe several projects I have done over the past several years that combine qualitative fieldwork in sites around the world as well as new methods to help explore what people’s future practices could be with their virtual possessions. My esteemed committee members are John Zimmerman, Jodi Forlizzi, Sara Kiesler, and Abigail Sellen. Feel free to stop by and check it out if you are in town!
