Björn Ekström
Universitetsadjunkt
Faculty of Librarianship, Information, Education and IT (including The Swedish School of Library and Information Science)
— Swedish School of Library and Information Science
Jag arbetar vid Bibliotekshögskolan. I min forskning undersöker jag mänskligt och ickemänskligt engagemang med information i forskningssammanhang, i forskares relationer med ickeforskare och/eller i miljösammanhang. Jag fokuserar på situerad interaktion med information och hur sådan interaktion är relationellt knuten till storskaliga fenomen. I mina studier kombinerar jag praktikteori med kvalitativa och digitala metoder.
Tidigare projekt inkluderar studier av informationspraktiker i volontärmässig artobservation, (des)information om hållbar elproduktion i dominanta informationsinfrastrukturer och big data-ansatser för forskning och utveckling.
