The International Visual Sociology Association’s annual 2012 meeting is in New York, July 6-9th. You can see the call for papers here. Perhaps if inVisio members are going they could reply to this post and hook up at the conference – it would also be great if you anyone going could email swarren@essex.ac.uk so I can equip you with promotional inVisio materials to litter the coffee break hall with!
Saturday, 12 November 2011 from 14.00 to 15.30 GMT an online workshop is dedicated to visual research projects that explore issues of power: ”The Chair. Visual Encounters with Power”
Organizers: MAGMA Contemporary Medium, SEMEISTOS Web-Semiotics Research Group
Online presentations of 10-15 minutes via Skype are welcome, and/or offline written presentations of visual research projects that are aimed at exploring leadership, power, and status issues. We intend to publish these presentations as an e-book and make them available for broader audiences. A live streaming of the workshop will be available at: http://www.livestream.com/magmalive

Jonathan Schroeder came across this interesting site the other day – lots of fascinating posts and I think you can send your work to them for publication on the blog too…. http://viz.cwrl.utexas.edu/content/about-viz
The International Journal of Work, Organization and Emotion will be publishing the first ever collection of articles specifically interrogating the sensory nature of work and organizational culture(s).

We’d particularly welcome papers from inVisio members that explore the interface between the visual and our other senses. Please drop me a line on swarren@essex.ac.uk if you want to chat informally about a submission. The editing team includes Prof Gavin Jack (La Trobe University, Australia), Kathleen Riach (Uni of Essex, UK), Antonio Strati (Uni of Trento, Italy) and me – Samantha Warren (Uni of Essex, UK)
Want to know more about how computer software can help analyse Visual Data? A free 2-day conference (including meals and accommodation!) at the Uni. of Surrey, UK. See this link for more details:
Dear inVisio members… please find attached a call for papers for a journal special issue on ‘Vision’ edited by Dr Beatriz Acevedo and Prof. Sam Warren. Submissions due 29th April 2011
Sam Warren asked me to post the presentation software I used at the Standing Conference on Organizational Symbolism 2010 (SCOS) in Lille. The software is called Prezi and it is a good alternative to Powerpoint as it uses a zoom function instead of slides. University staff can get a free online license! If you are looking for a less linear way to present this might be an option.
Please see the “Activities” tab above for details of the forthcoming inVisio seminar at Surrey, UK on ‘Computer Analysis of Visual Data’ on Thurs 5th August. Places FREE
