"SIGPhil's Philosophical dialogues: the story behind the work" is an AIS SIGPhil's activity to promote the philosophical discourse in IS field.

The purpose of the SIGPhil's podcasts "Philosophical dialogues: the story behind the work" is to go behind the published work and seek answers to why philosophy, how philosophy, when philosophy and with whom. Together with the quests talking about their experience we will explore the history, the ideas, the reasoning, the process, the challenges and the funny things that happened and made contribution to what they did and published. We will also discuss what did not got published and the future of their philosophical work. All that in 45 to 60 minutes.

If you want to engage or just explore the philosophy of science in information systems you should listen these podcasts.

In the second "SIGPhil's Philosophical dialogues: the story behind the work" podcast I talk with prof. Brian Butler. Dr. Brian Butler is a Professor and Senior Associate Dean in the College of Information Studies (iSchool) at the University of Maryland. Dr. Butler has published over 100 refereed articles in journals, conference proceedings, and edited books. His recent scholarly work has been published in Archival Science, Journal of the Association of Information Science and Technology (JASIST), Information Systems Research, MIS Quarterly, Communications of the ACM, and Organization Science. His research interests include the development and modeling of online communities and social media systems, the interplay of power and information technology in organizations, and techniques for deploying complex information systems to support reliable organizational and individual performance. His recent work examined the role of local information institutions and infrastructures in community resilience.

In this podcast we talk about his eclectic approach towards usage of philosophical streams, his opinion on how to communicate your philosophical intuitions in research papers, the philosophical obligations of IS scholars and much more. With this I bring you prof. Brian Butler
