  8. As the countdown to 2024 begins, here's a recap of some of the books #openhumanitiespress has published in 2023. Beginning with this from January:

    Data Farms, ed. by Tsvetelina Hristova, Brett Neilson and Ned Rossiter.

    Like all OHP books, Data Farms is available #openaccess:

    openhumanitiespress.org/books/

    What's at stake in naming #datacentres as #datafarms. These installations are essentially hangars packed with #computers. They congregate #servers, switches and wires that facilitate the storage, processing and transmission of #data in high volumes and at fast speeds. Data centres present a scale of operations, potentially planetary in scope, that intensifies and multiplies the productive and extractive capacities of #digitaltechnologies.

    The economic advantages to parties with servers in these installations derive not only from opportunities for networking but also from inputs to client machines that may be situated at vast distance. Yet data centres have precise locations...

  9. The importance of #ethics in #DigitalDesign lies in the fact that #DigitalTechnologies have become deeply ingrained in nearly every aspect of our lives, from how we #communicate and access #information, to how we conduct business and govern our societies. As such, the way these technologies are designed and developed can have far-reaching consequences for #individuals and #communities.

  10. Have been feeling inspired after doing some work assembling communities that I'm really interested in - thought I'd do a tag dump for some of the areas that I'm looking into, as well as have already found super interesting, have been following and am boosting... (not in alphabetical order and probably too broad but for my own future reference also!)

  11. Technology is Actually Pretty Great

    Technology is great: it's the tech industry that's the problem. This post explores why we need to reject the Big Tech myth of inevitability.

  12. There is an online book launch by the University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa that may interest some mastodon users.

Technotopia, Power and Risk” edited by Vishwas Satgar
    The book is free to download.

  13. "…realities itself are being sculpted by the shifts & waves of #attention that are happening online, which nobody is in control off…" #RichardDoyle
    "#DigitalTechnologies are #psychedelic.
    We’ve been on a bad trip. It’s time for us wiggle out, dream better, & allow a more capacious, plural, and harmonious humanity to take the oars together in whatever novel wonders may arise—to neither “give way to astonishment” nor let our fears steer us into the rocks." #MichaelGarfield

  14. More reading stuff for the vacation as promised: LRZ researcher Michele Martone liked the book Digital Vergan, "because computer scientist Andy Farnell makes a parallel between a liberated and #healthy #nutrition, and the usage of #digitaltechnologies. The book has a goldmine of references, it is written in a understandable style and enrichs everybody". Her you can find the book: digitalvegan.net/

  16. 📢 New Book Alert!

    🌐 'Modelling Between #Digital and #Humanities: Thinking in Practice' is now available!

    This volume presents an exploration of Digital Humanities (#DH), a field focused on the reciprocal transformation of #digitaltechnologies and #humanities scholarship.

    💻Central to #DH research is the practice of #modelling, which involves translating intricate knowledge systems into computational models. This book addresses a fundamental query: How can an effective #language be developed to conceptualize and guide modelling in DH?

    Modelling, with its historical roots, carries multifaceted meanings influenced by various disciplinary contexts. This book innovatively connects #DH with the historical tradition of model-based thinking in the #humanities, #culturalstudies, and the #sciences. Through an exploration of digital, visual and data models, the book asserts that #DH holds the potential to be a cornerstone of a #novel #cultural #literacy paradigm.

  18. #DigitalTechnologies are not a force of nature, we can shape the development (and should). This is why #DigitalGovernance is so important!

    „Instead of releasing half-finished A.I. systems for the public to test, we need to make sure that they are robust before they’re released—and that they strengthen democracy rather than undermine it.“ slate.com/technology/2023/04/a

  19. #GlobalGovernance needs to step up when it comes to #AI and #DigitalTechnologies in general. There have been plenty of opportunities wasted in the past unfortunately, see e.g. our @foraus proposal on an "IPCC for AI" foraus.ch/publications/making-
