This is my presentation from this year's Social Media Geek here in Glasgow.
Equator were the lead city sponsors and as well as covering innovation in the social media sphere, we wanted to talk about how we plan to use these tools to improve the experience of the next generation of talent in our sector and beyond.
The digital and creative sectors really suffer from a lack of job-ready graduates. It’s time that we employ our skills to fix this problem.
I believe we can transform education to create better graduates with more opportunities and a healthier landscape for business growth.
For graduates, professionals and businesses, building a strong reputation or brand in the digital social sphere is now an important ingredient for success.
This reputation is no longer simply based on the work you do, it’s about the good you do too.
I'm proposing social utilities that help both individuals and businesses build their reputation through digital mentoring.
Pretty soon, the credentials you earn earn by sharing your knowledge with graduates or buddying with key people in the industry will be vital to getting your next job or promotion.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

IT’S ALL ABOUT TEAMWORK….. HERE IS A TEAMBUILDING EXERCISE FOR YOU
This is quite fun for a group of 8-20 people. This is a great introductory problem solving
activity. It requires people to be in close proximity but they are not allowed to touch.
Question for your team afterwards - What issues should our group focus our attention and
energies on? And How can our group do more with less?
INSTRUCTIONS: Get a tennis ball and instruct your team to have everyone touch the ball
at the same time without touching each other (including hair or clothing).
This should take 5-15 minutes. Caution, your team members may become contortionists.
Give them plenty of room.
