Cultural and Material life of Media Piracy
The Cultural and Material life of Media Piracy is a three year project carried out by the Sarai programme of the CSDS in collaboration with the Alternative Law Forum, Bangalore. We begin with the premise that piracy is widespread in places where a media-saturated modernity meets severe inequalities of purchasing power for books, software, recordings, videos and other knowledge products. One of the key aims of this research project will be to understand this media environment as it unfolds itself in diverse contexts. The main research node is in India with comparative work in China and Pakistan. The Sarai-ALF teams of researchers work in tandem with an international project on media piracy with fellow researchers in Brazil, South Africa and Russia. The larger study is coordinated by the SSRC (New York).
The project seeks to open different debates on piracy other than simply that of enforcement and criminality. Through research, we hope to generate discussions of cultural needs, community practices of sharing and circulation in societies of high inequality. We will also look at media industry approaches to piracy and enforcement strategies. In addition, there will be ethnographic and quantitative work on media use in neighbourhoods. The study of piracy offers a unique vantage point to study the media environment, through the sites of media and its movement across limits set by law, the complexity of user-bases, and the diversity of cultural delivery platforms.
We are looking for bright, energetic and qualified researchers who can work in collaboration with a regional and international team. Applicants must demonstrate abilities to research and write on the subject. A familiarity with the debate on piracy and the creative commons is preferable. Social science and Humanities applicants should have completed post graduate degrees and law students a four year programme.
Researcher One: Delhi
The researcher will be looking at fieldwork material on media piracy in the Sarai archive, as well as conduct neighbourhood surveys slate to begin in 2009. Work will include research papers presentations and collaborative work with the team.
Researcher Two: Mumbai
The researcher will be looking at the range of piracy strategies pursued by media industries in the film and music sectors. Research will span the larger media companies as well as the smaller companies. Work will include research papers presentations and collaborative work with the team. Applicants from outside Mumbai are also welcome to apply for this position, although Mumbai based work will be significant.
Remuneration will be Rs 28000/ a month. Interested applicants may send their CV and a written research sample to researchjobs@sarai.net by September 20, 2008.
Applications without a written research sample will not be entertained.

PhD students / junior researchers Vacancies
The Infonomics and New Media Research Centre at Zuyd University has vacancies for 2 PhD students / junior researchers (5 yrs, full time)
and 1 Postdoc / senior researcher (5 yrs, full time)
Closing date 15th September – interviews are planned in week 39.
All positions are part of an exciting and prestigious 5-year project,
generously funded by the European Research Council as part of the 7th
Framework Ideas Programme, called : DigIDeas: Social and Ethical Aspects
of Digital Identities. Towards a Value Sensitive Identity Management.
The overall aims of this project are to increase understanding and
awareness of the social and ethical aspects of digital identity
management (IDM),
and to contribute to the quality and social and ethical acceptability of
technological developments. The project will achieve these goals by
bringing
recent insights gained from several disciplines - social studies of
science and
technology, surveillance studies, philosophy (social philosophy and
philosophy of
technology) and computer ethics - to bear on actual developments in digital
identity management, thus exploring novel ways to identify and
articulate the
issues concerned.
With a series of interdisciplinary studies focussing on different
application
areas of IDM, we intend to produce more fine-grained knowledge of the ways
IDM is implicated in contemporary transformations of identity. The
programme
will involve three complementary PhD projects, and one integrative postdoc
project, thus achieving a strong concentration of groundbreaking
knowledge on a
set of fast emerging intellectual and societal problems.
All project members will have clearly defined individual research projects,
as well as cooperate as team members and contribute to DigIDeas’ overall
project goals. Excursions into other ongoing (international) research
projects and
activities (Can SSHRCC, EC-FP7) are possible, and generous travel
budgets are
available.
The Infonomics and New Media Research Centre is a young interdisciplinary
research unit at Zuyd University, Maastricht/Heerlen, led by ass.prof.
dr. Irma
van der Ploeg, and currently employing 10 people. Its research agenda is
focussed on four themes: digital identities, ubiquitous computing, user

Architecture PhD position at TU Eindhoven
PhD position at TU Eindhoven Department of Architecture, BUilding and Planning
PhD Design and decision support systems - modelling of supernetworks
Technische Universiteit Eindhoven Department of Architecture, Building and Planning
Eindhoven, (Noord-Brabant), 40 hours per week
Job description
Project description
Start and end date Project: start date: ASAP (depending only on the availability of a suitably qualified PhD-candidate). We aim at a starting date of January 1st 2009, and an ending date four years later.
Research objective
The aim of the proposed project is to develop supernetwork models at the highest level of integration to analyze design solutions for physical and non-physical networks in a more integrated fashion than has been done hitherto. The use of supernetwork models to analyze and evaluate synergies in the context of an accessibility analysis and based on actual path choice behaviour raises new questions. This new application and behavioural extension of the concept implies a methodological contribution to supernetwork modelling with relevance for urban planning, transportation research and spatial analysis. The methodology developed in this project will be implemented in a GIS-based software tool that can be used to evaluate design solutions and scenarios for developments in the Randstad region.
Research approach
The research is focused on development of a model for constructing supernetworks and computing paths through these networks for implementing given activity agenda’s of individuals. Since the structure and parameters of a supernetwork are dependent on an activity agenda and also on perceptions, knowledge, preferences and opportunities/constraints (e.g., teleworking) of a specific individual, the model is designed to generate supernetworks dynamically based on physical data as well as data regarding a specific individual and agenda. To develop the model, the following research questions are addressed:
- How can utilities of activities, and travelling and transactions costs be modelled as generalized link costs functions representing also preferences, perceptions and constraints of an individual?
In the use phase, the envisioned model should take into account the actual path choice behaviour and benefits that multiple individuals possibly can realize from synchronization of their paths in time and space through their personalized supernetworks. A next key element of the model developed in this research, therefore, concern:
- A (dynamic) path choice model that represents activity-scheduling and re-scheduling behaviour of individuals when faced with unforeseen events (e.g., delays);
- A path synchronization model representing communications and joint decision making between individuals to realize planned interactions (e.g., joint activity participation).
In technical terms, this means that existing shortest-path algorithms are replaced by models that better represent limited information, cognitive constraints and possibly myopic behaviour of subjects. The model is developed based on stated and revealed data on path choice.

Technische Universiteit Eindhoven
PhD Student “Human and social sustainability in work organizations”
Eindhoven, (Noord-Brabant), 40 hours per week Technische Universiteit Eindhoven
Job description
Project description
The PhD student will conduct his/her research in the project “Human and social sustainability in work organizations”. The research is about designing regenerative work. Regenerative work is defined as work that supports the growth and revitalization of employees’ various resources. Regenerative work thus increases employees’ ability to function in the future while also promoting positive affective states and performance in the present.
The regenerative potential of work relates to the manageability of work (e.g., a balance between resources and work demands), the clarity of goals, and feedback received. This research builds on previous methodologies concerning the analysis and design of jobs. The research will use both surveys and case studies, and will be carried out in industrial companies, in which work crafting is developed in the context of (hyper)turbulent and unpredictable change.
This PhD position is embedded in the KNAW-acknowledged Beta Graduate School for Operations Management and Logistics.
Requirements
University Graduate
For this position we are interested in candidates who show an interest in the development of chaos and complexity theory and the willingness to engage in the co-development of such theory in an international network context. Candidates should be familiar with case study methods, and techniques for quantitative data analysis, and must show competence in writing in English.
Candidates with a master in Work & Organizational Psychology, Operations Management and Logistics, Innovation Management, or related programs are invited to apply. The PhD candidate is expected to deliver a PhD thesis and a number of scientific publications within a period of 4 years.
