The four book series "Technology in Our Time" thoughtfully examines
a broad range of topics and issues central to the study of new
media.
"Volume I: Doing Digital Media" explores emerging forms of self
identification, self expression, and relationship formation in the
online world. The book examines presentations of self, e-neighbors,
the social implications of gaming, cyberbullying, and privacy and
surveillance through readings that open up the discussion of how
lives lived online and in virtual words may lead to communicating
and behaving in ways that differ profoundly from face-to-face
interpersonal interactions. Whether one is searching for love,
openly and passionately tweeting a personal opinion, or expressing
a hidden self through an avatar, doing digital media may well
represent the next phase of how people define themselves and
interact with others. Laura Robinson earned her Ph.D. in Sociology
from the University of California, Los Angeles. Currently, she is
an Assistant Professor in the Sociology Department at Santa Clara
University. Professor Robinson held a postdoctoral fellowship at
the University of Southern California's Annenberg Center, and her
research has been funded by the MacArthur Foundation. Her research
has focused on new media, digital inequality, and comparative
research on The United States, Europe, and Latin America.
Professor Robinson has published in several peer-reviewed journals,
including Sociology, Qualitative Sociology, The Journal of
Computer-Mediated Communication, and Information, Communication,
and Society. Her article The Cyberself, published in New Media
& Society, was awarded the Outstanding Paper Award by the
Computer Information Technology Section of the American
Sociological Association. Professor Robinson's work on Brazilian,
French, and American online political forums has won awards from
the Computer Information Technology Section of the American
Sociological Association, the Association of Internet Researchers,
and the International and Intercultural Communication Division of
the National Communication Association."
