Helen Partridge – författare

""The German word for experience - Erlebnis - the experience of the life, to live through something - underpins this book: making visible scholarly opportunities for richer and deeper contextualizations and examinations of the lived-world experiences of people in everyday contexts as they be, do and become." (Ross Todd, Preface). Information experience is a burgeoning area of research and still unfolding as an explicit research and practice theme. This book is therefore very timely as it distils the reflections of researchers and practitioners from various disciplines, with interests ranging across information, knowledge, user experience, design and education. They cast a fresh analytical eye on information experience, whilst approaching the idea from diverse perspectives. Information Experience brings together current thinking about the idea of information experience to help form discourse around it and establish a conceptual foundation for taking the idea forward. It therefore "provides a number of theoretical lenses for examining people's information worlds in more holistic and dynamic ways." (Todd, Preface)."

Vi ska typ umgås. Min hjärna är tom och jag är lätt obekväm. Funderar på vad jag kan säga. Pappa spatserar på sitt klassiska, slängiga vis med trumman på ryggen och gitarrfodralet i ena handen. "Do you need me to help you with the carrying, Dad", tvingar jag fram, kantigt. "No. I’m fine, Ducks." Hur är det att växa upp med en legendar till far, som väljer musik, alkohol och frihet framför allt annat och vad gör det med ens självbild? När en kärleksrelation kraschar startar en vandring genom förnekelse, ilska och sorg, men också acceptans och nya möjligheter. Ibland måste du först bara förstå. Helen Partridge bor i Malmö. Hennes far var gatumusikanternas konung. Detta är hennes första roman.
