Abstract

This one-day workshop aims to map data and its inherent connections to work (of all kinds) across a landscape of ongoing crises. The workshop brings together researchers and practitioners with an interest in data work that underpins automation, algorithmic systems and organizational and societal strives toward datafication. The workshop provides a forum for interdisciplinary discussions around controversies related to data and work – and data work in particular – with the aim to expand the toolbox for working with data by proposing and developing critical approaches, drawing on the rich contributions of the growing body of literature on data work and datafication. Through spatial and temporal mapping exercises, the workshop intends to both trace paths through past crises into a contemporary moment, and towards more hopeful futures.
