SUMMARY:Pre-reflective Agency conference
UID:www.birmingham.ac.uk/200879
DESCRIPTION:‘The piecemeal business’ constitutive of our ethical lives\n
 The overarching aim of this conference is to advance our understanding of the role played by pre-reflective agency within our ethical lives. Explicitly cross-disciplinary, this conference is organised around four sub-themes: \n

Habit changeability (and its relationship to perceived affordances)
Pre-reflective convictions of [in]appropriateness and implicit normativity
The digital mediation of everyday habits and modes of agency
Moulding the infrastructure that moulds our habits: design interventions (this includes, but is not limited to, data-reliant infrastructure)
