<synthesis> invite: Data Activism Future AND Art as Data Activism (June 29/30 on Zoom)

[Stefania Milan]

Dear friends and colleagues

we are happy to invite you to two events celebrating the DATACTIVE 
project (data-activism.net), which over the past 6 years has 
investigated citizen engagement with data and tech innovation from a 
social science perspective. The events will take place in 
Amsterdam/Zoom, please register at the link below.

On June 29^th , starting at 1pm CEST (Central European Summer Time), we 
will reflect on ‘Data Activism Futures”. PhD candidates Becky Kazansky 
and Guillén Torres, and Dr. Niels ten Oever (the first DATACTIVE 
“completed” PhD) will take central stage, sharing their truly amazing 
work and charting future directions, too. We will also be joined by 
colleagues and activists, and by artists, too, in an enthusing ride into 
our learnings as well as the future prospects of data activism. The 
event will be moderated by Postdocs Lonneke van der Velden and Davide 
Beraldo, but it wouldn’t be possible without the hard work of Project 
Manager Jeroen de Vos.We will stream the event on Zoom but from the 
Amsterdam studio of Engage TV.

To make you curious, we are prepared a 4’ teaser/trailer, which can 
befound here on YouTube [0](more videos will be released next week—to 
survive well past the final event).

On July the 30^th , we will explore the potential of art as data 
activism. This second event, at 5pm CEST and in collaboration with the 
“academic podium” SPUI25 (on Zoom), involves a number of awesome artists 
who will help us disentangle the relation between art and science 
communication.


Sign up to receive your Zoom link (note: the two events have two 
separated sign-up links) [1]


We hope to see you there!
