Designing for Online Collaborative SensemakingNitesh Goyal
We designed a collaborative analysis tool to explore the value of implicitly sharing insights and notes, without requiring analysts to explicitly push information or request it from each other. In an experiment, pairs of remote individuals played the role of crime analysts solving a set of serial killer crimes with both partners having some, but not all, relevant clues. When implicit sharing of notes was available, participants remembered more clues related to detecting the serial killer, and they perceived the tool as more useful compared to when implicit sharing was not available.
Graham, Stephen. "The end of geography or the explosion of place? Conceptuali...Stephen Graham
Abstract: This article critically explores how the relations between information technologies and space and place are being conceptualized in a broad swathe of recent writings and discourses on the geographies of `cyberspace' and information technologies. After analysing the powerful role of spatial and territorial metaphors in anchoring current discourses about information tech- nologies and society, the article goes on to identify three broad, dominating perspectives. These I label the perspective of `substitution and transcendence' (dominated by technological Utopian- ists), the `co-evolution' perspective (drawing from political economy and cultural studies) and the `recombination' perspective (derived from recent work in actor-network theory). The discussion turns to each in turn, extracting the geographical dimensions and implications of each. The article concludes by considering the implications of the discussion for spatial treatments of society± technology relations and for broader debates about the nature of space and place.
Co-word analyses study the co-occurrence of pairs of items (for example, keywords) that are representative in a document, to identify relations between the ideas presented in the
texts.

AI alignment from the Active Inference perspective 2023.pdfRoman Leventov
AI alignment from the perspective of Active Inference. The stack of "alignments": methodological is more important than scientific alignment which is more important than factual alignment, of which goal alignment is a specific type. However, there are also other, non-Bayesian perspectives on alignment that are also important to take, and alignment in and of itself is not enough to ensure that the AI transition goes well for humanity.
REGIONS and THIRD PLACES - Valuing and Evaluating Creativity for Sustainable ...Christiaan Weiler
In this presentation I will try to put culture and creativity in a specific context, including theoretical references, but concentrating on a practical approach. With outcomes of an action-research project three connected hypothesis are proposed. To complement the otherwise rather limited quantitative data for this relatively new subject, a collaborative methodology is proposed, that will help contextualize the work and directly engage stakeholders in the process.
To stay close to the title of the conference, I will focus on the elements concerning culture and creativity. Giving a purpose to culture and creativity can allow us to concentrate on what it does rather than what it is. The presented research project (still in search of funding...) positions culture in a strategic role for collaborative processes, and proposes the creative stance, as an alternative to the critical stance, for innovative governance and planning development.

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of surveillance enabled by media technologies on personal behavior and preferences. Through this comprehensive overview, the presentation aims to shed light on how media shapes collective consciousness and public opinion.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Mutual redundancies and triple contingencies
1. Mutual Redundancies and Triple Contingencies
among Perspectives on Horizons of Meaning
Loet Leydesdorff
University of Amsterdam,
Amsterdam School of Communication Research (ASCoR)
loet@leydesdorff.net; http://www.leydesdorff.net
2. Information, Redundancy,
and the Measurement of Meaning
1. Information as uncertainty (Shannon-Weaver);
expected information; bits measurement
2. “A difference which makes a difference” (Bateson);
“A distinction which makes a difference” (MacKay)
→ potentially, reduction of uncertainty; “negentropy”
→ “meaningful information” for a system of reference
(e.g., an observer)
→ redundancy + information = maximal information
→ redundancy as the complement of information
3. Replace “historically excluded” with “historically not yet
realized”
(“adjacent others” -- Kauffman, redundancy -- Weaver);
Shift of focus to the instances that could have happened.
Brooks & Wiley (1986, at p. 43): The development of the maximum information
content and the historically realized information over time.
4. Shannon-Weaver model
Shannon (1948, p. 3): “Frequently the messages have meaning; that is they
refer to or are correlated to some system with certain physical or conceptual
entities. These semantic aspects of communication are irrelevant to the
engineering problem.”
Warren Weaver argued that Shannon’s “bizarre” distinction between
information and meaning “has so penetratingly cleared the air that one is
now, for the first time, ready for a real theory of meaning” (Shannon &
Weaver, 1949, p. 27).
5. Cultural domain; Husserl’s “cogitatum”
Correlated in “language”; codingCorrelations: sharing of meaning
Weaver (1949, p.26): “Similarly, one can imagine another box in the diagram
which inserted between the information source and the transmitter, should
be labeled “semantic noise”. (…) And the problem of semantic decoding must
take this semantic noise into account.”

6. Luhmann
(Husserl, Parsons, Maturana, etc.)
• Symbolically generalized codes of
communication (Parsons, 1963; 1968):
– For example: money, power, truth, love, etc.;
• Functional differentiation of the codes as the
latent dimensions (“eigenvectors”) in the
communication matrix of senders and receivers
(von Foerster); (→ social system)
• Second-order dynamics because of three layers;
the loops can reinforce each other into
auto-catalysis (Ulanowicz; Padgett & Powell).
7. Layer 1
Networks of communications among communicating agents:
Historical proliferation of the uncertainty (entropy)
Layer 2
Interactions among communications provide meaning to the
communications at the supra-individual (i.e., systems) level
Layer 3
Codes of communication structure the interactions,
at the (next-order) “global” level
Bottom-up:
Historical construction
Top-down:
Evolutionary control
Variation and
selection
8. 1. Selections at
specific moments of
time networks
3. Some stabilizations are
selected for globalization
2. Some selections are
selected for stabilization
over time
→ Triple Helix of selection mechanisms
9. Two selection mechanisms operating upon each other generate a historical
variation (T12 ≥ 0). Three selection mechanisms operating upon one another can
generate a positive (T123 ≥ 0) or “negative” (missing) variation (T123 < 0).
Correlations are added to the relations.
10. Additive and subtractive color mixing
→ three different perspectives;
→ sharing of meaning; → generation of synergy
relationalpositional
12. Configurational Information:
T123 = H1 + H2 + H3
– H12 – H13 – H23 + H123
→ TUIG is potentially negativeR123 < 0 : reduction of uncertainty; synergy;
R123 > 0 : historical development; exploration
Mutual Information:
T12 = H1 + H2 – H12
T12 ≥ 0; always positive
𝑹 𝟏𝟐 = 𝐻1 + 𝐻2 − (𝐻12+2𝑇12)
= 𝐻1 + 𝐻2 − ([𝐻1+ 𝐻2 − 𝑇12] + 2𝑇12) = −𝑻 𝟏𝟐

14. Semantic map among 56 title words connected at cosine ≥ 0.1
among 149 titles of documents in Social Science Information
2005-2009.
15. 1. The mutual information among the three factors in the
system of title words is T123 = +50.6 millibits.
No synergy among the three main factors in the
historical organization of the titles in a journal.
2. When the analysis is repeated for the 187 documents that
cite one of these 149 documents, T123 = –106.2 millibits;
Evolutionarily self-organization of the citing documents
into three disciplinary groupings:
(i) organizational sociology; (ii) ethnology; and
(iii) migration studies.
16. Indicator of synergy
in innovation systems
• The Triple Helix provides us with a model for
measuring the knowledge base of an innovation
system in terms of synergies
• Three sources of variance:
– geographical diversity (endowment);
– technological capacity (infrastructure);
– industrial structure
• Firms as units of analysis

19. Conclusions
• Relations in the network space versus correlations in the vector space;
dyadic relations versus triple contingencies (→ “triadic closure”).
• Historical relations versus Evolutionary functions
– Historical footprints; variation; observable retention
– Evolutionary differentiation; exploration of new dimensions; R > 0
– possible synergy among selection mechanisms → R < 0
• The selection mechanisms are not given, but socially constructed as
symbolic codes of the communication (res cogitans). They can be
operationalized as evolving eigenvectors of the consecutive matrices.
• The advantages of this approach are operationalization and
measurement!
