I've been introducing my students to #ResearchCreation via my major #Design.
Specifically, through #CriticalMaking
What I like about Critical Making is that the state of the final prototype isn't what's important. It is the process and what we reflected on and learned during the making of the artefact.
I always tell my students that they don't need to hand in a beautiful piece of art. It's okay if it's messy or unfinished because it's the process that matters!
Pretty strong #zine printing game today 💪

The Critical Coding Cookbook PDF Reader is now downloadable at https://criticalcode.recipes/downloads. The 276 pages of delicious reading includes hyperlinks to code examples and it’s printer-friendly 🍥
Special thanks to Munus Shih for turning the website into a book 🍢
I finally got around to scanning a series of printed slides (okay, decal-ed slides) that I produced as an art project last spring. (Shout out to the wonderful work of the Creative Futures #HASTAC group, who let me show it last June.) IU has some archival quality scanners, so I got these HUGE scans of each of the slides.
The idea was to overlap two images in different colors (Red and blue) to think about how aspects of medicine which are shown to the public (happy people living in sanatoria) are interlinked with the really awful extractive practices of scientific medicine. The material I used were related to tuberculosis around 1900.
These I love because both images kind of get lost in a kind of abstraction.
🚨 Abstract Deadline Tomorrow!!! 🚨

The prevalence of digital and algorithmic systems in everyday human subjectivities prompts a critical analysis that considers not only sociotechnical aspects but also cultural and communicative factors. This is because contemporary digital and algorithmic systems reinforce the heteropatriarchal borders and categories of the offline world that not only reflect historical empire building but also sustain the coloniality of modernity (see Mignolo 2007). In online spaces, borders have formed that reflect traditional offline biases and normative categorizations that oftentimes only serve a narrow demographic. Furthermore, contemporary digital systems and algorithms do not reflect the pluralistic nature of the humanities. Concomitantly, human subjectivities in digital spaces often display creative and unique methods of digital resistance to existing normative categorizations and algorithmic biases. Consequently, this Research Topic seeks to draw on the existing ground work of the Full Stack Feminism in Digital Humanities (FSFDH) research project, funded by UKRI-AHRC and the Irish Research Council under the ‘UK-Ireland Collaboration in the Digital Humanities Research Grants Call’ (grant numbers AH/W001667/1 and IRC/W001667/1). We seek to recognize and explore cultural methods of survival and resistance within existing biased, market-driven digital empires. This will be done by creating a collection of scholarly research that foregrounds storytelling and embodiment, not just as a...
Delighted to have my abstract for a short talk accepted for #HASTAC2023 #CriticalMaking and #SocialJustice
My talk focuses on the centrality of #storytelling to both uncovering marginalised histories and reimagining intersectional feminist futures.
The talk draws from interviews conducted with digital practitioners as part of @FullStackFeminism.
