Hi, I'm a Associate professor of Media Technology at Södertörn University, Stockholm. I am researching participatory processes online from a critical and feminist perspective, currently organizing the CSCW workshop A Toolbox of Feminist Wonder: https://blogg.sh.se/a-toolbox-of-feminist-wonder/ Some tags to make myself findable: #feministHCI #criticaldatastudies #digitalheritage #metadataculture #metooresearch #researchthroughdesign
Theories and methods that can make a difference

ACM TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTER-HUMAN INTERACTION

ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction (TOCHI) covers the software, hardware and human aspects of interaction with computers. Topics include hardware and software architectures; interactive techniques, metaphors, and evaluation; user interface design processes; and users and groups of users. Those within the artificial intelligence, object-oriented systems, information systems, graphics and software engineering communities, will benefit from the high quality research papers in TOCHI concerning information and ideas directly related to the construction of effective human-computer interfaces.

Cool stuff you should be reading: creative technologist Tomo Kihara explores why Google AI image recognition system "sees" people with darker skin as more violent. He is developing simple games with the Cloud Vision API to push & prod the system, and understand it better. This is a really cool example of what could be called Research Through (Game) Design

Why does the AI recognise darker skin as more “violent”?

I made a game to trick Google’s AI only to find out that it seems to have biases against people of darker skin color.

Things I'm reading these days: E. Giaccardi "Histories and Futures of Research through Design: From Prototypes to Connected Things"
'This article discusses how the artifact of Research through Design (RtD) is changing due to data technology. The article firstly reviews the role of the prototype in RtD traditions. It then describes the move of RtD to data-enabled practices to offer a conceptualization of artifacts as connected things.'

Vice-Chancellor's Fellow in Design

People into #criticalmaking and #researchthroughdesign have a look at the "Critical Makers reader. (Un)learning technology" edited by L. Bogers and L. Chiappini. With essays from Matt Ratto himself, and Garnet Hertz, and a truly nice selection of other contributors.
