Help a researcher at Evoke
category: parties [glöplog]
Are YOU an active demoscener and going to Evoke? will you probably work on something at Evoke together with one or more group mates? Then I would like to study you!
I am an academic on top of organizing the TRSAC demoparty in Denmark - my speciality is creativity in it design processes, which means that I look into how people go from an initial idea or vision to a finished product. You can read more about our project here: http://cavi.au.dk/research-areas/cibis-creativity-in-blended-interaction-spaces/
What I would like to do at Evoke, is to be allowed to hang out at your table and record as much of your work as possible. I am interested in the creative process - recordings will be video/audio, pictures, and my own notes. After going home I will do a qualitative analysis of your work. My interest is mainly in how your different tools, digital and physical, structure and help your work and collaboration with group members in creating a demoscene production.
Ethics: I will happily share all the recorded stuff with you. You will not be used in identifiable form unless you agree specifically to this. I will refer to you as ie. "the coder of a demoscene group" or similar. After writing up my analysis I will send it to you, and you can object to any factual errors.
Interested in helping academia, spreading attention, gaining a friend for life and a bunch of drinks/beers/sodas/bratwursts? Throw a message here, on facebook https://www.facebook.com/nbhansen or on nbhansen@gmail.com

You want to study people? You are looking for volunteers who want to act as laboratory mice?
Wow! Weren't you the guy who once said that I have no clue how the world we are living in works?

Adok:your ability to carry a grudge exceeds ability to remember. I might have and in that case I apologize if I was wrong.
However studying something someone is doing anyway is the exact opposite of a laboratory mouse - I would prefer people carry on and do as they would do anyway. You could make the case that I want to study wild mice, going about their mouse-business albeit with a slight wonder at why that guy there is recording their mousery. That is all part of qualitative method, which is not typically an approach that utilises laboratories much :)

... exceeds MY ability to remember. Not yours.
OK, you are right. You are a human ethologist then. :)
SAVE THE MICE AND CODE MORE DEMOS
BE A MICE AND CODE MOAR DEMOS
action research is very hot in social sciences currently! too bad it's all baloney!
I thought Mice is a musician, not a coder!
If you reserve me some place to the next place to the door to the outback (the door to where outside-action, like "Grillieren 3.0 without Drago but us all" takes place!) i will have the position i want, my Monitor will be visible from outside and i will be your StudyObject for no other reasons, than my own ones anyway! ;)
(Gotta work on Friday, naturally, will arrive late, as in 18h+, so just reserve that one SHEAT already! :p )
Only bad side here would be: everyone outside would see the winner-prod of the Demo-Competition beforehand (in parts!) :(
But i am all in, handle me like some mammal, you want to know more about! ;)

but then with demosceners doing demos!!!
Very nice introduction nic0, feel free to come to our desk and talk to us while we polish our 4k, the concact would be my pouet nickname at blu-flame org.
Oh and fuck off Adok.
Oh and fuck off Adok.
yeah fuck adok..he doesn't know how the world really works!
Hi Hardy and xTr1m thanks for your offers! I am gonna take both of them, and I am booking my plane tickets as we speak :)
gonna mail you guys laters!
gonna mail you guys laters!
The world works because there is a giant turtle on which the world resides.
i agree with Adok. If it isn't a double-blinded RCT then it isn't real research!
