‘A Collection of Conjurings and Opacities’: Archival Encounters, Curating and Redress in the Afterlife of Colonial Histories
This article offers a reflection on the solo exhibition ‘For Alberta and Victor: A Collection of Conjurings and Opacities’, by visual artist La Vaughn Belle, of which I was guest curator in 2021. As a site-specific intervention at the Women’s building in Copenhagen, the exhibition sought to engage the residue of Danish colonial history, in particular the traces surrounding the 1905 Colonial Exhibition at Tivoli Gardens. I look back on this collab…
Uncertain Archives: Critical Keywords for Big Data
Scholars from a range of disciplines interrogate terms relevant to critical studies of big data, from abuse and aggregate to visualization and vulnerability. This groundbreaking work offers an interdisciplinary perspective on big data and the archives they accrue, interrogating key terms. Scholars from a range of disciplines analyze concepts relevant to critical studies of big data, arranged glossary style—from abuse and aggregate to visualizatio…
Introduction to The Sensorial Experience of the Drone
Over the last decade, drone technology has garnered critical attention across disciplinary fields, from engineering, military studies, law, and political science to landscape architecture and scien
Uncertain Archives: Approaching the Unknowns, Errors, and Vulnerabilities of Big Data through Cultural Theories of the Archive
From global search engines to local smart cities, from public health monitoring to personal self-tracking technologies, digital technologies continuously capture, process, and archive social, material, and affective information in the form of big data. Although the use of big data emerged from the human desire to acquire more knowledge and master more information and to eliminate human error in large-scale information management, it has become cl…
Archival encounters: Rethinking access and care in digital colonial archives
The optical unconscious of Big Data: Datafication of vision and care for unknown futures
Ever since Big Data became a mot du jour across social fields, optical metaphors such as the microscope began to surface in popular discourse to describe and qualify its epistemological impact. While the persistence of optics seems to be at odds with the datafication of vision, this article suggests that the optical metaphor offers an opportunity to reflect about the material consequences of the modes of seeing and knowing that currently shape da…
Chroma key dreams: Algorithmic visibility, fleshy images and scenes of recognition
The increasing pervasiveness of datafication across social life is significantly challenging the scope and meanings of visibility. How do new modes of data capture compel us to rethink the notion of visibility, no longer understood as an ocular-based perceptual field, but as a multifaceted site of power? Focusing in particular on technologies of algorithmic recognition, the article argues that in order to understand the broad stakes of visibility…
