Hello all

Forgive the well-intentioned self-promotion. I’m writing to share links to
some free, open access resources about living with datafication / data
visualization in society:

Public Understanding and Perceptions of Data Practices: a review of
existing research
(https://livingwithdata.org/current-research/publications/) (by Helen
Kennedy, Susan Oman, Mark Taylor, Jo Bates, Robin Steedman) is an extensive
review of existing empirical research (from 2015 to 2020) into
public understandings and perceptions of datafication.

Data Visualization in Society
(https://www.aup.nl/en/book/9789463722902/data-visualization-in-society),
(edited by Martin Engebretsen and Helen Kennedy, published by Amsterdam
University Press) is a multi-disciplined and multi-faceted conversation
concerning the forms, uses and roles of data visualization in society.

Both publications attempt, in part, to link data/dataviz to wider concerns
by addressing the role of structural inequalities in shaping experiences of
data and visualization.


Best wishes


Helen
