Time to Reconsider Time in the Digital Age

Constant change is a hallmark of the phenomena we study. Further, the phenomena we study often occur on widely different time scales. Unfortunately, our methods are often limited to a narrow range of time scales, or we overlook temporality and change altogether.

We will engage the audience in a discussion of two key questions: How can our methods more effectively incorporate temporality and change? How can we create findings that have lasting value when phenomena are always changing
