EPIC published the proceedings from last fall, so here is my paper if you want to read it! It covers a lot about authenticity in gaming events and it does get a bit spicy about the nature of capitalism. epicpeople.org/pursuit-of-aut…

Put it into numbers, CyberConnect2 is like only one voice, so of course no matter how passionate we are if it’s only one voice it won’t have much impact, it won’t be heard. That’s why everyone’s voice would be needed to make it happen, to raise interest. #dothack (make it trend)

This new piece from @nitashatiku is so, so, so good. It explains wtf is going on with Silicon Valley and AI risk. Between the lines, it connects a lot of dots for me I hadn't worked out yet. Insanely well-written and well-researched. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…

I've been doing ethnographic work around gaming communities and events professionally for like 8 years now. Think it may be time to step back and publish something? Might try for a conference paper this year?

"Here I collect a selected set of critical lenses on so-called ‘AI’, including the recently hyped #ChatGPT. I hope these resources are useful for others as well, and help make insightful why we need to remain vigilant and resist the AI hype." irisvanrooijcogsci.com/2023/01/29/cri…

Saturation as a marker of #qualitative quality is overrated. However, if that's your goal, this systematic review is your friend. It concludes that, given the right analytic practices, 9-17 interviews or 4-8 focus groups can lead to saturation. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Mentioned old ethnographic technique to PhD student. Have a poor stomach requiring you to go frequently to the toilet so you can record notes before you forget them. She reported back that this has been extremely useful advice.

@RealKevinCole Guess I know what I'm investigating today, on first glance it seems like the sense of wonder of collective asynchronous fiction not unlike SCP or blaseball that functions almost like an epic saga or mythos where despite people continually adding, a cohesive narrative shakes out.
