To paraphrase E. Goffman concerning a handshake… A “definition” of a cyber security condition:”[…] a handshake that perhaps should not have been extended becomes one that cannot be declined.”

I’m in a deep deep deep dive of . Did you know he loves the idea of contamination? Like loves it. It appears throughout his oeuvre, even making an appearance in Forms of Talk.

Not sure I’ve read anyone talking about this. Except me! Hahah. Shameless. Check it out.

So, why am I open about mental illness?

As a sociologist I regularly taught students about discrimination, studies and ‘stigma’ (in Sociology Erving most famously wrote about it).

After my workplace environment triggered multiple panic attacks a day to the point where I was regularly contemplating suicide I eventually took sick leave and after a short while decided ‘I need to be open about this otherwise I’m reinforcing the ’.

2/7

Look at what just came into my inbox:

"mediastudies.press is a scholar-led, nonprofit, no-fee open access publisher in the media, film, and communication studies fields.

We are excited to announce the publication of Erving Goffman’s remarkable 1953 dissertation, Communication Conduct in an Island Community:

mediastudies.press/communicati
"

I am not sure I will read 's dissertation, but it makes me pause. I have used and continue to use many of his ideas.

@cqdcqdcqd Damn I’m excited for your book … have you published or presented anything on the topic yet? Aside: One of my pet peeves is the way that Goffman’s theories got sucked up, decontextualized, and distorted by . ( guy here, so I have a particular perspective when I read .).

Poll for @ourhcicommunity: What are the boundaries for discourse ? Should it just be professional HCI-related topics? Other academic fields? ? politics and personal matters?
