new article on "pluralising critical technical practice" with Daniela van Geenen and @kfvanes has just been published in Convergence: https://jonathangray.org/2023/12/12/pluralising-ctp

we'll add full details & links for the special issue here when it is out 👀 https://publicdatalab.org/projects/pluralising-critical-technical-practices/

GaTech Digital Media #PhD apps are due Dec 15! I'm looking for a student interested in studying how to create environments & infrastructures to help people to do the work of #TechEthics, using qualitative & design methods.

I usually approach these from a mix of perspectives from #HCI, #STS, #Design, #CriticalDesign, #CriticalTechnicalPractice

And some of my current research areas: https://richmondywong.com/index.php?page=research

It appears that a forthcoming special issue on Phil Agre's #criticaltechnicalpractice is slowly trickling out one-by-one at Convergence

So instead of reading the special issue wholesale I am just reading the pieces as they come out. A stroll through Agre rather than a sprint

after discovering the "live coding youtube" library (💜 h/t @yaxu) started a little collection of tools, scripts, resources for recomposing online video materials (including things like videogrep, yt-dlp, moviepy, cc @aparrish's
tutorial on p5/video, etc): https://www.are.na/jonathan-gray/video-recomposition

would love any suggestions for further things to explore! 🧶
