A lost playthrough of Daybreak is brutal.

Frustrating. Maybe because the defeat feels epistemically charged: as if climate futures themselves were lost.

I’m currently working with a colleague on this game in a chapter for an upcoming edited volume on humans, machines & climate crisis. We analyse how knowledge, imaginaries and epistemics are translated into playable mechanics — and what performing the game does to futuring.

Curious: has anyone here played Daybreak / e-Mission?
What did you notice?

Nil Uzun joins #dnl36 as moderator and research associate at RWTH Aachen, where she investigates algorithmic warfare, military AI, and alternative tech futures. Her work bridges sociology, STS, and global justice, unpacking how technology both reflects and resists power.

4S 2025 Seattle

yeah, just got a notification that we @KAEEGoetheUni got a small grant to develop a tutorial session with a small research task: students will be tasked to identify elements of #HiddenCurriculum in our #STS study programme. It will be fun, and hopefully offering critical insight, to think about this between #HigherEducation studies and #ScienceAndTechnologyStudies.

#STS Scholars for Remote Access and Financial Fair Play!

We call on #ScienceAndTechnologyStudies (@sts) scholars advocating for #RemoteAccess and #Financial #FairPlay to sign this petition.

We demand STS communities to
1. provide remote access, ensure hybrid participation possibilities
2. make costs of future STS conferences& associations transparent.

Critically #teaching #STS in #German(y)?

Are you involved as teacher, student or otherwise in #ScienceAndTechnologyStudies teaching in #Germany?

Please share your situated analyses of teaching&#learning realities at our workshop in March at Berlin's #STShub.

I hope to link the conversation to #Critical #Pedagogy considerations in #STS.

STS-Hub 2025: Diffracting the Critical

The STS Hub 2025 'Diffracting the Critical' explores contemporary formations of critique in Science and Technology Studies (STS). Emphasizing feminist approaches, postcolonial studies, and more-than-human ontologies, this event challenges traditional norms and promotes expansive, collaborative methodologies. Join us to address critical issues in ecologies, infrastructures, scales, temporalities, collaborations, and solidarities in the age of climate change.

I wonder if there's anyone here who's experienced using the #UKRI #GatewayToResearch #GtR dataset? I'm really keen to identify researchers who have had #ResearchImpact on #PublicPolicy.
