OM DENNE EPISODE
With increasing migration across the globe, there has been an upsurge of interest in “ethnolects”, varieties of speech used by ethnically diverse groups of young people in modern metropolises. Major projects are underway, for example, in London, Berlin, Stockholm, Toronto and, through the Sydney Speaks project, Sydney. Sydney Speaks considers quantitative patterns of variation in phonetic, morphosyntactic and discourse features as observed in spontaneous spoken language by Sydney-siders of diverse social backgrounds. A contemporary (2010s) corpus will be compared with a corpus of 1970s Sydney speech (Horvath 1985), allowing the fine details of language change to be tracked in real time and in actual language use. In this talk, some of the key questions to be addressed in the project are presented, motivated by some findings from the 1970s data.

For a robot to talk with people, it needs language skills, but less obviously, it also needs social skills and a sense of the physical and social context of conversations. What does it take to engineer a robot as a social technology that can interact in real time in human environments? In this pro…
As a CI within CoEDL I have been working in collaboration with CoEDL Affiliate Francesca Merlan on a project that addresses four of the biggest mysteries about human beings and their social worlds, namely:

Each year the sheer number of “things” that are connected to the Internet grows exponentially. But the real value of the Internet lies in the number of connections not only among things but also people, processes and data. This is the Internet of Everything and it is linked to the growth in smartph…
