SUMMARY:DIGINAUTS Workshop: Border dissidence\, digital resistance & the production of irregularized migrants
DESCRIPTION:Thursday 24th October\, 9.00-12.30\nUniversity of Copenhagen\, Auditorium 22.0.11 \nFriday 25th October\, 13.30-16.30\nIT University of Copenhagen\, room 4A14 \nThe interdisciplinary research project Diginauts is inviting to the workshop Border dissidence\, digital resistance & the production of irregularized migrants. \nThis workshop aims to understand the role of technology in controlling and enabling migration. The workshop seeks studies on the use of technology in the acts of imposing official power to control and limit migrations influxes\, as well as the use of technology in protesting/circumventing power structures inherent in border technologies. Contributions are welcome from different methodological approaches and socio-cultural contexts\, including Migration Studies. \nFind the full program and call for papers here.

SUMMARY:Research Talk by Dr. Morgan Ames – The Charisma Machine: The Life\, Death and Legacy of One Laptop Per Child
DESCRIPTION:IT University of Copenhagen\, 24. October 2019\, 11.00 am\nRued Langgaards Vej 7\, Copenhagen\nRoom: Aud. 2 \nDrawing on her new book\, The Charisma Machine\, Ames chronicles the life and legacy of the One Laptop per Child project and explains why — despite its failures — the same utopian visions that inspired OLPC still motivate other projects trying to use technology to “disrupt” education and development. \nAnnounced in 2005 by MIT Media Lab cofounder Nicholas Negroponte\, One Laptop per Child promised to transform the lives of children across the Global South with a small\, sturdy\, and cheap laptop computer\, powered by a hand crank. In reality\, the project fell short in many ways\, starting with the hand crank\, which never materialized. Yet the project remained charismatic to many who were enchanted by its claims of access to educational opportunities previously out of reach. Behind its promises\, OLPC\, like many technology projects that make similarly grand claims\, had a fundamentally flawed vision of who the computer was made for and what role technology should play in learning. \nDrawing on a seven-month study of a model OLPC project in Paraguay\, this talk will discuss how the laptops were not only frustrating to use\, easy to break\, and hard to repair\, they were designed for “technically precocious boys” — idealized younger versions of the developers themselves — rather than the diverse range of children who might actually use them. Reaching fifty years into the past and across the globe\, Ames offers a cautionary tale about the allure of technology hype and the problems that result when utopian dreams drive technology development. \nBio\nMorgan Ames is an assistant adjunct professor in the School of Information and interim associate director of research for the Center for Science\, Technology\, Medicine and Society at the University of California\, Berkeley\, where she teaches in Data Science and administers the Designated Emphasis in Science and Technology Studies. She is also affiliated with the Algorithmic Fairness and Opacity Working Group\, the Center for Science\, Technology\, Society and Policy\, and the Berkeley Institute of Data Science. She researches the ideological origins of inequality in the technology world\, with a focus on utopianism\, childhood\, and learning. The questions that drive her current projects concern the ways in which young people construct their identities with computers\, and how computers (and the technology design practices that produced them) shape the identities they construct. \nNo registration needed.

SUMMARY:TiP Talk by Airi Lampinen: Alternative Ways of Organizing Work
DESCRIPTION:IT University of Copenhagen\, 30. October 2019\, 12.00—14.00\nRued Langgaards Vej 7\, Copenhagen\nRoom: Aud. 4 \nThe Technologies in Practice (TiP) research group at ITU is happy to present Senior Lecturer in Human–Computer Interaction and Docent in Social Psychology Airi Lampinen from Stockholm University/University of Helsinki\, as our next speaker in our TiP Talk Speaker Series. \nAbstract\nAiri Lampinen’s talk will highlight grassroots efforts to create alternative ways of organizing work. The focus will be on social and economic arrangements that are not geared solely at economic value and may not aim at scaling up. The talk draws on empirical work on cooperatives as well as the self-organizing network Hoffice that brings together people who wish to cocreate temporary workplaces. What can we learn from such – sometimes humble and halting – efforts at creating new social and economic models? In promoting a focus on local meshing (Light & Clodagh\, 2019)\, instead of the kind of scaling familiar from global\, for-profit initiatives\, the talk invites us to expand our thinking into what future economies can look like and the part technologies may play in them. \nBio\nAiri Lampinen is an Associate Senior Lecturer in Human–Computer Interaction at the Department of Computer and Systems Sciences (DSV) at Stockholm University\, Sweden\, and a Docent in Social Psychology in the Faculty of Social Sciences at University of Helsinki\, Finland. The main focus of her current research is on interpersonal and economic encounters in the context of networked platforms. She is the Principal Investigator on the projects Economic Encounters for Human–Computer Interaction and Algorithmic Systems\, Power\, and Interaction. Moreover\, she is actively involved in the COST Action From Sharing to Caring: Examining Socio-Technical Aspects of the Collaborative Economy (http://sharingandcaring.eu) where she co-leads the working group on collaborative economy practices and communities. \nTiP Talks – a series of talks\nThe Technologies in Practice research group at the ITU is the organizer behind this series of talks\, “TiP Talks”\, where we have invited academically distinguished speakers to ITU to share their research\, which we consider as being of inspiration for academics who are interested in qualitative studies of technologically mediated practices in organizations. \nThis talk is open for everyone\, but the content is intended for an academic audience as it builds upon previous research.\nNo registration needed.
