Intel Corporation's Domestic Designs and Technologies Research Group is
calling for interns!
As part of Domestic Designs and Technologies Research - the ethnographic

within a multidisciplinary team of anthropologists, design researchers
and documentary film makers to explore and research 'love and
spirituality' and its intersection with computers and technology, in and
around the home.
DDTR is a driving force within the Digital Home Group (DHG): our charter
is to develop a clear & actionable understanding of daily life all over
the world, identify opportunities for our platforms to enable
experiences that consumers value, merge original insights with
technology, market, platform and planning intelligence to define usage
models & platform requirements, and seed future research & platform
opportunities. DHG's vision is to make Intel the trusted foundation of
your digital home. To that end, the Digital Home Group develops
computing and communications oriented platforms that anticipate and
satisfy the needs of consumers world-wide.
We will be offering 3 month paid internships starting in October '07

studies, including analysis of the resulting data. Candidates should
prepare a concise yet thorough 3-5 page proposal to explore some aspect
of love and spirituality and its intersection with computers and
technology in and around the home; inclusion of how the proposed
research fits with the candidate's own research interests (broadly
defined) is a plus. Exact responsibilities of the position will be
defined with the successful applicant based on the proposal you submit.

references) describing the research you'd like to do in this area over
the course of your internship to [log in to unmask]
