We're seeing lots of headlines about the catastrophic impact of massive data center expansion. But what else could data centers look like?
In my perpetual quest to seek out alternative technofutures, I want to highlight the really cool work of Keolu Fox.

In 1996, Brewster Kahle wrote "Preserving the Internet" for Scientific American. Nearly 30 years later, it’s striking how many of his predictions about digital preservation came true—and how many challenges remain.

“Should I pretend I, as an intersex person, don’t exist?” - Georgiann Davis www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...
Contributor: I'm an intersex professor. Am I supposed to lie by teaching 'only male and female'?
A campaign against teachers who acknowledge realities of human biology forces a choice: Teach truth and risk your job, or lie and maybe keep it.

Hi #STS peers and other ethnographers!
I am looking for good work on ethics of ethnographic research. In general but also particularly in healthcare/medical settings. Do you have any suggestions? Please, let me know! #STS #ethnography #research #researchethics

So sad, Callon was such an important figure in STS. Who can forget those scallops? I met him once at the École des Mines, Bruno Latour introduced us, around 1990 - that was it. I wish I'd gotten to know him, too late now - yet the scallops and ANT live on

The Center for the sociology of innovation learned with great sadness that Michel Callon has passed away.
A graduate of the École des Mines, Michel joined the center in the late 1960s and was its director from 1982 to 1994.

I am happy to share that I am starting a position as a Postdoctoral Fellow in Technology & Society, with a specialization in #STS & medical AI, at Lund University.
I will work in two research projects exploring ethical & epistemological dimensions of AI-supported predictive precision medicine 😊
