Distracted but Drafting

I know it’s been a while, but there is more coming… The onslaught of my twin boys has really put my blogging into a tail spin, but believe it or not, I’m still researching.. sort of. I have come across some really great stigmergy research that I will blog about soon, it’s just taking me a while to get through it as I always seem to have a baby in my arms (like right now).

I’m also embroiled in drafting a fairly massive grant application right now – an Australian Research Council Linkage grant to fund a post doc (amongst other things) to explore digital stigmergy and stigmergic collaboration in publicly situated civic information networks. Specifically on the iHub information network in Melbourne’s CBD – very exciting!

As soon as this grant is done (late November), I’m re-entering my research and dissertation writing with gusto, having also just secured a fantastic new co-supervisor – Sean Cubitt. So expect to see more stigmergy and stigmergic collaboration action soon.
