This was such mindset-shifting work and I can’t want to see it in the world!

I’ve been digging deep into the archive/AI relationship these last three months and just this week I’m tripping on a whole lot of stuff I missed! The pieces for Flickr are written but I’m excited to be finding these gems…

So impressed by @laurenfklein.bsky.social et al's Data by Design: An Interactive History of Data Visualization dataxdesign.io - ft Beothuk maps, W.E.B. Du Bois's "data portraits," Wm Playfair's time-series charts, Elizabeth Palmer Peabody's chronological grids, etc. It's been 🤩 to watch this emerge!

"What transpired at Emory last week is exactly why Atlantans don’t want Cop City. It’s what we have been protesting for three years."
For The Nation, I wrote about Emory, Cop City, and the police violence aimed at protest. When you put all your resources into militarizing policing, militarized police become the answer to everything. www.thenation.com/article/arch...
