Blog: Relevant Tools & Practices in Hybrid Publishing

Seeing the wild amount and variety of experimental publications brought to the world, it is hardly possible to claim that any of them is a ‘best practice’. But some of them are certainly highly interesting in terms of formal experiment, quality, or redefinition of the reading experience. Below, you find an incomplete list of tools and practices that seem relevant and inspiring to Hybrid Publications group of Going Hybrid. You can find more information about this group, its members, and the issues it’s tackling in a previous blogpost.

Developing Team Design Patterns for Hybrid Intelligence Systems

With artificial intelligence (AI) systems entering our working and leisure environments with increasing adaptation and learning capabilities, new opportunities arise for developing hybrid (human-AI) intelligence (HI) systems, comprising new ways of collaboration. However, there is not yet a structured way of specifying design solutions of collaboration for hybrid intelligence (HI) systems and there is a lack of best practices shared across application domains. We address this gap by investigating the generalization of specific design solutions into design patterns that can be shared and applied in different contexts. We present a human-centered bottom-up approach for the specification of design solutions and their abstraction into team design patterns. We apply the proposed approach for 4 concrete HI use cases and show the successful extraction of team design patterns that are generalizable, providing re-usable design components across various domains. This work advances previous research on team design patterns and designing applications of HI systems.

Blog: Workflow Improvements for Hybrid Event Reports

Over the past two months, the Going Hybrid Publishing group has convened for two days of design sprints. The discussions we had during these sprints were informed by our previous state-of-the-art analysis and survey of relevant tools and practices. This blog post is a recap of two design sprint days, sharing both process and outcomes.

Plotless actions with nevertheless a plot

We report research into the evolvement of a hybrid learning environment where education, companies and government successfully cooperate. This hybrid learning environment—one of the latest inventions in curriculum design—is special because it was neither intended nor planned by the parties involved. With some self-astonishment, the participants in this research experienced a growing acknowledgement of their emerging educational creation, aside from the experience of and appreciation for their cooperation and the increasing turnover. With a bricolage research approach within the scope of a rhizomatic perspective on becoming, a multivocal perspective on the evolvement of the learning environment was pursued. In emphasizing the historical evolvement of the learning environment, our findings challenge the tradition of drawing board design, accompanied by an appeal for re-appreciating professional craftsmanship. In addition, some reflections regarding the research are discussed.

A roadmap on how to plan hybrid events and safeguard participant’s experience.

Events and online interaction: the construction of hybrid event communities

Events are per definition limited in time and space. However, the social interaction taking place during events can continue virtually. This can result in hybrid communities, existing of an offline and an online dimension. This paper explores the construction of hybrid event communities based on the following research questions: (1) What type of online practices can be identified before, during and after the event? (2) How do online and offline event practices and rituals influence each other? (3) How do combinations of online and offline practices contribute to the creation and maintenance of hybrid event communities? The practices of three events were studied using qualitative methods. Fifty-six interviews were conducted, and participant observation took place during 11 editions of the events. This was complemented with an online study. The findings identify different types of online practices around events such as connecting practices, recruiting practices and creative practices. Moreover, the combinations of practices lead to different types of event communities. The paper develops a framework of online/offline interaction processes that result in different types of event communities, contributing to our knowledge about the role that events can play in the contemporary network society.
