DATA LIFE Conference
Conference theme: Exploring the multiple dimensions of data life through critical data studies
One-day conference co-organized by INTERSECT research group, DATA LOSS project, DATA STORIES project, The Centre for Culture and Technology, and The Aesthetics of Bio-Machines.
The DATA LIFE Conference invites scholars, researchers, and practitioners to submit papers that delve into the complexities and implications of data in our world. As data becomes an increasingly integral part of our lives, it is vital to critically examine the power dynamics, ethical issues, and social impacts associated with its production, management, and use.
Two keynote speakers will open and close the conference: Rob Kitchin (Maynooth University) and Stefania Milan (Amsterdam University). DATA LIFE is a one-day conference co-organized by INTERSECT research group, DATA LOSS and DATA STORIES projects.
We welcome contributions that explore, but are not limited to, the following themes:
- Data Power and Politics: examining power structures in data collection, processing and use.
- Data Justice: analysing inequalities and biases in data systems and algorithms.
- Histories and Cultures of Data: historical and cultural perspectives on the evolution of data management practices.
- Data Policies and Regulation: challenges and opportunities in local and global data governance.
We look forward to your contributions to the DATA LIFE Conference and exploring the multifaceted dimensions of data with you.
