When I first arrived at ASU, I spent a bit of time in the Nexus Lab – talking with Michael Simeone, working with a few students who were doing some encoding, and giving a few presentations. One of those presentations as part of the Research Advancement series, was where I met my current collaborator, Jessica Rajko. From that first meeting we’ve developed our #VibrantLives work and have gone on to show […]
Coming Soon: Size Does Matter
This is a placeholder post – one that I’m using to remind me of some thinking, writing, and making that I’d like to do in the near future. In a recent HSCollab Possibility Lunch we spent time talking about the many many different kinds of information coded in human performance/life. We were thinking through uptake of the dress-wearing of Young Thug and Jayden Smith (below) and how we might understand these […]
Doing not Being a Book
NB: This is the written work and slide images from a talk I gave as part of the fabulous Yale Book History Seminar this weekend. Thank you to the amazing organizers for a really wonderful event. We were given provocations/prompts and asked to speak for about 20 mins. I think the most compelling part is the first section and the final paragraph :). Someday, when the book is done, I’ll work […]
Feminist Infrastructure as Metamorphic Infrastructure
I’m one of five women on a panel about Feminist Infrastructure at the Digital Humanities annual conference taking place now in Krakow, Poland. Due to other obligations, I’m here in the states, but my virtual presence will be manifest with little movie presentation. Related: not keen that this panel and so many others have been put on a “diversity” track, but happy everyone is there and doing the work. Creating […]
Timeline of #myDHis
In anticipation of the #myDH panel this afternoon at #DHSI2016, I thought I’d pull up some of the earlier conversations on this topic. There are two overlapping tags: #myDHis and #myDH. #myDHis began in 2015 as a coordinated public intervention in a conversation that was happening at a DH event. It was designed to help people in the room at that event who felt marginalized by a dominant narrative regarding […]

DataPLAY Debuts
FemTechNet’s signal/noise conference, held in Ann Arbor (MI) this weekend, hosted the debut of Vibrant Lives’ DataPLAY. Below is our playbill, which evokes early American playbills that were used to advertise formal theatrical events as well as technological experiences and new medical practices, like those at the World’s Fair or in smaller traveling techno-operas and shows. In many ways the bill and the notion of a debut suggests a polished performance […]
