Philosophy and Technology has an interesting article on the idea of Experimental Philosophy of Technology or Techxphi, by Steven R. Kraaijeveld. The argument seems to focus mainly on developing the ethical side. It seems like a way of testing various intuitions and assumptions and might be an area to keep an eye on to see […]
The preview version of the latest Digital Humanities Quarterly is out and is an AudioVisual Data in DH special edition.
These are my notes from the Saturday sessions. The Friday notes are here. The morning started with “Deplatformization and the Ethics of Exclusion”.

I went across to Transmediale as it was on networks, of many types, under the End 2 End theme.

I came across Brandon Walsh’s Thirteen Oblique Strategies for Digital Humanities. This needs some further details but an initial thought is that it offers a way to think about DH and how it can be considered for students. One to come back and reflect on.
I have been following the feministlabs hashtag on Twitter to watch the What is a Feminist Lab? symposium. Rich would be an understatement so far from what I have seen and it is still going… The Civic Laboratory for Environmental Action Research (CLEAR) lab linked to their publication on author order, Equity in Author Order, […]
Facebook announced changes to the News Feed yesterday, Remove, Reduce, Inform: New Steps to Manage Problematic Content, to enhance their “Remove, Reduce, Inform” strategy.
