[AISWorld] Shirley Gregor - SIGPhil's Philosophical dialogues: the story behind the work with Shirley Gregor

[SANTA, Mijalche]

"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 this podcast I talk with Shirley Gregor. She is a Professor Emerita at the Australian National University. Her research interests include artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction and the philosophy of science and technology.

Her research has appeared in outlets including MIS Quarterly, Journal of Management Information Systems, Journal of the Association of Information Systems, International Journal of Electronic Commerce, European Journal of Information Systems and Information Technology & People. 
In her career prof. Gregor was a Senior Editor for MIS Quarterly and was Editor-in-Chief for the Journal of the Association of Information Systems. She has led several large applied research projects.
Prof. Gregor is Fellow of the Australian Computer Society and a Fellow of the Association for Information Systems. She was given a DESRIST Lifetime Achievement Award in 2017 for contributions to design science research in information systems and technology.

And Design Science is the ongoing topic of our discussion. With prof. Gregor I talk about how she was drawn to the fundamental questions and why she wants to answer them. How she participated and made contribution to the ongoing development of design science research in IS. We also discuss the interesting court case related to design science, discuss the possible contribution of abduction, Simon's artificial science, the future of IS and much more. With this I welcome prof. Gregor.
