Parasitic Aggregation

01 Feb

Date: Wednesday 01 February 2023
Time: 12:00 - 13:00
Categories: Academic events
Venue: Online via Zoom
Speaker: Dr Nathalie Tasler, Academic & Digital Development and Dr Linnea Soler, School of Chemistry

Jonathan Bailey, states that “If you use or link to other content, you are probably an aggregator, at least in some capacity” (Bailey, 2010) and then follows with ‘we are all aggregators’ (Bailey, 2015). But there are different approaches to aggregation and, depending on how transparent the attribution is, these can be classified either as parasitic or symbiotic. We believe that transparency (Silverman, 2014) and how attribution is carried out underpin these critical differences. In this session we explore mechanisms for ethical aggregation and using sharing to create impact for the original creators and yourself.

Public Lecture. In the wake of his tragic early death at 25, Keats was portrayed by his fellow poet Shelley as an ethereal frail flower. This lecture will look beneath the myth to reveal the real Keats, body and soul, in all his energy, vitality and complexity. It will explore how aspects of his life and personality – from his early medical training to his conflicted attitude to women – contributed to his poetic voice, and it will remind us quite how innovative that voice was at the time he first published.
