Bernie's work specialises in how to\u003cbr\u003eleverage computational tools for creative, challenging, and engaging methodologies to address social science\u003cbr\u003eresearch questions about identity, sexuality, and community. His favourite work in this area focuses on the\u003cbr\u003ecapture and analysis of personal social networks, using both pen-and-paper tools and the recent free opensource\u003cbr\u003eapplication Network Canvas (https: \/\/www.networkcanvas.com). He also has a keen interest in how\u003cbr\u003elanguage is used to either bring people together or push them apart using large scale quantitative data. He\u003cbr\u003ehas published over 40 peer reviewed articles and presented at over a hundred conferences, including several\u003cbr\u003ekeynotes. His most famous work reconsidered Goffman's offline stage play metaphor of self-presentation for\u003cbr\u003eonline life (Hogan, 2010). This piece probably helped in popularising the term \"algorithmic curation\".\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBefore working at the University of Oxford's Oxford Internet Institute (https: \/\/www.oii.ox.ac.uk) he completed\u003cbr\u003ehis undergraduate and graduate degrees in Canada. His undergraduate was in Sociology and Computer\u003cbr\u003eScience at Memorial University in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada. His graduate work was in Sociology\u003cbr\u003eand Knowledge Media Design at the University of Toronto. During that time Bernie interned at Microsoft\u003cbr\u003eResearch. Bernie lives in Oxford, UK with his husband and their sprawling vinyl record collection. He tweets\u003cbr\u003e(and collects vinyl) under the moniker \"blurky\" because it is a very rare word that sounds like Bernie.
