In addition to the weekly lab meetings, there are a variety of other things you might want to consider signing up for.
UW Meetings and Seminars
- UW Social Computing Reading Group — A weekly meeting, run four quarters a year. Folks sign to "host" which means suggesting a paper. Mostly folks from HCDE, the iSchool, and Communication.
- Google Group — You have to be added to the list. Contact Mako to have your email added.
- dub — "Design Use Build" is a backronym that describes a very broad group of folks working on humans and computers. There is a weekly seminar (Wednesdays 12:00-2ish, free lunch). Maybe 25% of talks are of interest.
- dub mailing lists are the safest way to stay connected.
- Upcoming DUB Seminar calendar (ICS calendar feed)
- DUB Slack is actually used. There's a #digitalyouth tag which is probably of interest to a number of folks here.
- The Center for Statistics and Social Sciences (CSSS) has a weekly seminar that tends to be technical but good.
- eScience Institute "advances data-intensive discovery in all fields."
- There's a (not that great) calendar of upcoming eScience events
- escience_bbl is an email list for an escience brown-bag lunch that, as far as I can tell, does not happen anymore. It's a good source of information about events.
- Reproducibility and Open Science Working Group is a group, associated with eScience, that is working on issues of reproducible research. There are some meetings, but they're infrequent. The email list is pretty low traffic and decent.
- reproducible@uw.edu mailman list
- Data Science Studies Group — List for work that is about studying data science and data scientists. Tends to be heavy on qualitative and critical work and questions of ethics, privacy, and data science thnography.
- escience_datasciencestudies@uw.edu — Data Science Studies List
- HCDE Seminar Series is a class taught each fall that is (mostly) outside speakers in CSCW that is also a set of open talks. There are usually quite good things! If there's a list, I'm not sure where it is. In any case, announcements seem to be all sent to DUB.
- Technology & Social Change Group (TASCHA) is a group at the iSchool. Meeting are rare but they do sometimes happen and they are advertised on other lists (like dub).
tascha-share — a mailman list for information sharing around TASCHA folks(this group is closed; no idea how to stay up-to-date on TASCHA specific events)
- UW Data Science Seminar — This seminar has been fantastic. Big budget, presumably, and brings in complete stars in the field.
- dataseminar@uw.edu — the announcement list for seminars
- Computer Science and Engineering Colloquia — Distinguished lecture are common and, if they're in our area, they tend to be good.
- The Colloquia and Distinguished Lecture Viewing Options includes lots of options for viewing online as well as links to Atom and RSS2 calendar feeds.
- talks@cs.washington.edu — The CSE talks announcement list.
- Communication Colloquia — Usually held on Wednesday afternooon from 3:30-5pm.
- com-colloquium@uw.edu is purportedly for announcing colloquia but it is not reliably used.
- Department of Communication Events Calendar — includes four separate Google Calendar feeds and is kept much more up-to-date.
- Change — UW's ICT4D group.
- The Simpson Center for the Humanities hosts lectures and microseminars with STS and digital humanities scholars. Not always relevant, but the source of some of the most high profile speakers at UW — especially the yearly Katz lecture.
- Simpson Center events calendar is regularly updated.
- Sign up for their weekly email.
- Tech Policy Lab UW — A collaboration between CSE, the law school, and the iSchool. Tends to have 3-4 very high-profile and excellent talks each year. These are usually big talks in Kane and usually "require" RSVP/tickets. In practice, you can just show up.
- techpolicylab@uw.edu — Email announcement list for the lab.
- tech_policy@uw.edu — List to "Share events at and around UW related to technology policy." In practice, this tends to be a semi-regular happy hour that is mostly local lawyers working on tech policy work.
- Lecture Page which includes video recordings of recent lectures.
- High Performance Computing Club — Often runs classes and talks related to Hyak and other HPC related topics.
- hpc-list@uw.edu — mailman list
Non-UW groups/meetings working in adjacent spaces
- Cascadia Wikimedians User Group — The Seattle-based group working on wikis and Wikipedia work in the local area.
- wikimedia-cascadia@lists.wikimedia.org — mailman list
- SeaFOSS — calendar of local Seattle free/open source software meetups. Not frequently updated, as far as I can tell.
- TA3M-Seattle — Technology Activiy 3rd Monday, Seattle. Meets most third Mondays, often at UW.
- Puget Sound SIGCHI — This seems to be mostly professionals, I think events usually cost money, and they usually sell out.
- Python Data Science Meetup — Basically a meat market but some of the talks look good.
- Puget Sound Programming Python (PuPPy) — Very active group. See above IRT the meat market thing.
- OpenStreetMap Seattle Meetup — Runs missing maps events and other OSM related projects.
- Greater Seattle Linux User Group
- #gslug on irc.freenode.net
- Mailing lists for discussion and announcements
Online Seminars
- Wikimedia Research Showcase — Fantastic research showcase that is online on the web the third Wednesday of every month (Pacific time). Announcements go out on the wiki-research-l mailing list as well as the WikiResearch twitter.
