It focuses on the Trust's flagship property The Convent at Peppertree a hotel, restaurant and winery complex located in the heart of Pokolbin in the Hunter Valley of New South Wales, Australia's most visited wine-tourism district. Against the familiar economic accounts which frame Peppertree as a valuable piece of real estate and the product of an unerring entrepreneurial vision, it is recast here as a more precarious network in which the complex threads from which it is woven are simultaneously social and material; configured by the intimate social relations of marriage, friendship and business partnerships and the material fabric of buildings and gardens, wines and foodstuffs through which these relations take and hold their shape. We trace three pathways through the Peppertree network - the social relations of the business `partnership', the `Convent' building which anchors the business in place; and the `gastronomic landscape' from which the restaurant at Peppertree sources local produce. These pathways open up some of the multifarious ways in which knowledge and agency are distributed through the network and enable us to admit new possibilities for financial story-telling; the spatial complications of production and consumption and the situatedness of our own research practice and account.Fri Aug 22 21:12:20 CEST 2008Contemporary SociologyJuly445-449The Road to Utopia and Dystopia on the Information Highway.261997on Assault BOOKS Information the \& Clifford,VIRTUAL Harold,SILICON Highway (Book),MITCHELL, Community: of Oil: Second Space, The Place (Book),SLOUKA, Bits: Infobahn Thoughts Mark,STOLL, Electronic Reality William (Book),WAR Cyberspace High-Tech Snake (Book) J.,NONFICTION,RHEINGOLD, Reviews,CITY Worlds: Homesteading -- Frontier, Reviews several books about the role of computer networks in the lives of people.

We argue that a focus on spatial models is misplaced. Drawing on understandings from architecture and urban design, as well as from our own research findings, we highlight the critical distinction between “space” and “place”. While designers use spatial models to support interaction,we show how it is actually a notion of “place” which frames interactive behaviour. This leads us to re-evaluate spatial systems, and discuss how “place”, rather than “space”, can support CSCW design.Wed Apr 23 22:05:04 CEST 2008Statistics \& Probability LettersJun3309--312First hitting place distributions for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process341997place Hitting 16Tue Apr 22 14:25:45 CEST 2008Stochastic Processes and their ApplicationsAug2281--287Moment generating function of a first hitting place for the integrated Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process321989hitting place first Tue Sep 18 13:19:08 CEST 2007New York, NY, USASIRIR '07: Proceedings of the 30th annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval103--110Towards automatic extraction of event and place semantics from flickr tags2007event semantic flickr emerging web place extraction Mon Aug 27 13:18:41 CEST 2007Re-place-ing space: the roles of place and space in collaborative systems1996roles systems sos-buch place space collaborative Fri Jan 05 04:29:54 CET 2007ISSN ; -332--339Rethinking Virtual Space as a Place for Sociability: Theory and Design Implications2004place space Marisa_Ponti Thomas_Ryberg activity_theory pedagogy Tue Oct 24 21:20:48 CEST 2006ISSN ; -332--339Rethinking Virtual Space as a Place for Sociability: Theory and Design Implications2004Space Pedagogy Place Learning Activity_Theory placeCommunity for tag(s) place
