We t ry to offer the majority of our events as livestreams\, so that especially in such times science communication and public discourse do not come to a complete standstill. For logistical reasons\, however\, this is unfortuna tely not possible for this event. Please visit our website to find out abo ut the current livestream offer and news from the institute. We hope for y our understanding. \n\nThe use of data and algorithmic processes for deci sion-making are a growing part of social life. Digitally monitoring\, trac king\, profiling as well as predicting human behaviour and social activiti es is at the core of the information order often described as surveillance capitalism. Increasingly\, it also determines decisions that are central to our ability to participate in society\, such as welfare\, education\, c rime\, work\, and if we can cross borders. How can we grasp what is at sta ke in such developments? \n\nRecently\, there is a growing focus on quest ions of bias\, discrimination and fairness in this debate. In her lecture\ , Lina Dencik will take stock of these concerns and present research that examines the implementation of data-driven systems in practice across pert inent sites of governance. She is making the case that in order to contend with crucial issues of justice in a datafied society\, we need to underst and data systems as part of broader societal transformations. She argues t hat we need to give greater importance to the question of why these techno logies are developed and implemented in the first place and how data pract ices relate to a wider political economy. \n\nThe lecture\, which is also part of the festival “Spy on Me #2 – Artistic Maneuvers for the Digit al Present"\, will be followed by a moderated discussion with the artist J onas Staal\, who will present his work “Collectivize facebook" in the co ntext of the festival.\n\n \;\nLina Dencik: Justice in the Datafied So ciety\nMonday\, 23 March 2020 | 7 pm | Doors open 18:30 pm\nHAU 1 | Strese mannstraße 29 | 10963 Berlin\n \;\n\nLina Dencik is Associate Profess or (Reader) at the School of Journalism\, Media and Culture at Cardiff Uni versity\, UK where she is researching the interplay between media developm ents and social and political change\, with a particular focus on globalis ation and resistance.
