How does Race work in the machine of your knowledge production? What is data? What is race? How do we understand bias in technology and infrastructure? When are Race and Data different and when are they the same? How do we understand Race and Data in the context of what we call “Artificial Intelligence”? Is a data analytics of liberation at a time of anthropogenic climate breakdown possible? How does your research deal with these weathers and becomings? How have these categories influenced your discipline and research? What formats and futures are reproduced? What does a just data science and an otherwise data look like?
