@robinjsmith.bsky.socialA new article on respecifying stigma - and Goffman’s “language of relationships” - using Sacks’ suicide prevention centre corpus. Can (should!) be read alongside @philhutchinson.bsky.social’s article, and others, in the forthcoming special issue.

@iiemca27.bsky.social@iiemca27.bsky.social@iiemca27.bsky.social🚀 IIEMCA27 has 3 novel pre-conference workshops lined up!
The workshops explore timely topics and approaches with the spirit of collective exploration of research possibilities in #EMCA.
@lizstokoe.bsky.social#EMCA shows that and how humans manage interactions - effectively, less effectively, and sometimes in ways that are mundane yet powerfully poignant - but, like much of interaction, momentary and would not be identified, described, and shared in order end up in a list of "discrete aspects."
8/8
@lizstokoe.bsky.socialFrom the article: "A model from OpenAI has been trained to assess more than 50 discrete aspects of each phone call" - which aspects? It would be interesting to see what crossover there is between these 50 and things that would be endorsed by #EMCA research findings.
6/8
@lizstokoe.bsky.socialThere are many stories about AI and 'conversational' products, but this one in particular (about the recording and analysis of probate calls in Co-op Legal Services) had many disappointing, frustrating, and worrying components - from the perspective of conversation analytic research #EMCA.

@dollyangelic.bsky.socialyo so my bestie comrade-in-analysis and her student (now our research assistant) have just had this cool work come out. About the relation between racialisation and visual description in calls to the NZ Police. I think it has the juice. #emca
