im pretty disabled and so can't go to university to study anything, but im really interested in our interaction with the internet (as an entity) and through the internet (with other people)
so recently i decided im gonna start studying that myself! im not sure where im going to start, but i want to explore such a wide range of things! psychology and linguistics are probably the two fields that have already done a lot of work on this, but i'd also like to study the sociology of it!
idk if i'll find anything that changes the way we interact with the internet, probably not, but i am excited to learn and discover c:
Hi ~beefox, it's a big subject! Can you give examples of specific questions or cases that interest you? Much like ~commence2897, I'd be happy to help (locha@rawtext.club). I'm a philosopher of mind, but I've specialized in corpus methods, which got me into philosophy of language and had me read some linguistics.
hey there - i hope you enjoy learning!
i'm in my final year of linguistics (and communication - so there's a fair amount of sociology), so i'm more than happy to share resources, pointers and what have you over at midnight.pub@sbcv.co.uk.
i'm excited to read whatever you find! academia shouldn't just be for folks at college when so many folks interact with things that can be studied.
Probably not. But you might! And you will, indeed, learn and discover along the way...
Good luck with your quest!
