I am a linguist in the same way that I am also a scientist. Both are my careers and the way I am. https://t.co/Sl2Xasu1EY

@alexiamadd @ACMcCosker Sorry I only just saw this Alexia. Been busy teaching and redesigning a Monash unit for new data scientists so not reading Twitter much. Good luck with your projects Anthony. Hope you are both coping well at work and your homes.

So #PersonaStudies2019 was a pretty awesome start to what will hopefully be an ongoing conference series. I was struck by how applicable the concept has been, flexible to new contexts without losing its coherence or structure. 1/-

Giles citing Harré (1983) prior to social media, there were 'file selves' that represented the individual on paper as a proxy for the physical self. Echoed Gergen's 1991 notion of the disembodied, distributed 'saturated self' #PersonaStudies2019
