Title

danah boyd

Description

who am i?

My name is danah boyd and i am a PhD student at the School of Information (SIMS) at the University of California, Berkeley. My research focuses on how people negotiate a presentation of self to unknown audiences in mediated contexts. In particular, my dissertation is looking at how youth develop a sense of individual and cultural identity in "public" online environments like LiveJournal, Xanga and MySpace. Additionally, i am concerned with how digital publics do not look like the physical publics that we traditionally consider.

Prior to my current project, i studied blogging, articulated social network services (e.g. Friendster, Tribe.net, LinkedIn...). I have written papers on a variety of different topics, from digital backchannels to social visualization design, sexing of internet interactions to creating artifacts for memory work.

I am currently being advised by Peter Lyman at SIMS and Mimi Ito at USC-Annenberg Center. Prior to Berkeley, i was a graduate student in the Sociable Media Group with Judith Donath at the MIT Media Lab. My master's thesis focused on how people manage their identity presentation in relation to social contextual information. As an undergraduate, i studied computer science at Brown University with Andy van Dam. My undergrad thesis focused on how sex hormones affect prioritization of depth cues and how this affects use of virtual reality systems.
