Forced reproduction
The U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization overturned federally sanctioned legal protections for abortions in America, returning legislative power over reproductive rights to individual states. Consequently, access to reproductive care has become increasingly location-dependent. The Dobbs decision and its ongoing consequences occur during a time of intensified location-data-tracking, with geofencing, licence p…
Bad Boundaries
Locational data are a key part of platform function. They organize people and environments according to position and proximity. One technique through which platforms collect and circulate locational data is through geofences—virtual perimeters established around target locations that mark who and what crosses their thresholds. Applying the lens of data intimacies, the authors look at two applications of geofences in the United States: (a) to targ…
Perils of Place
For many, mapping platforms are enmeshed in everyday experiences. We navigate, locate, and move through the world with the help of their locative affordances. Consequently, these platforms have an intimate awareness of our movements and location history, and this information is valuable for advertisers. One way that platforms can track and share this information is through geofences, commonly used by companies to send targeted advertisements dire…
Geographies of Self-Sufficiency
Scrolling through Google Maps application or website, it is difficult to avoid Google Maps’ hallmark promises of explore and experience. From calls to “explore and experience the world”, “discover new experiences”, “find places for you” or “have the confidence to explore, access to experience”, explore and experience (and their iterations of discover, find, and access) command imaginaries of unrestricted entitlement and complete control over one’…
What Does the Internet Sound Like
When it comes to the study of internet phenomena, the visual constitutes a privileged mode of analysis, as seen by the ample and storied scholarship on visual media dn visually based methods. In order to disrupt this “hegemony of the visual,” and explore alternate ways of knowing and being online, this panel bring internet studies scholarship into meaningful dialogue with sound studies scholarship and poses the provocation: “how can sound be used…
Support local
Experiences within cities are increasingly mediated by digital platforms such as Google Maps; thus, it has become imperative to establish critical frameworks to understand the spatial relationships these platforms reinforce and produce. Google draws on “local” knowledge through its Local Guides platform to add location-based data in the form of reviews and rankings to Google Maps. Through a critical technocultural discourse analysis (CTDA) of the…
Can you draw that for me
Going in a Different Direction
These days, wayfinding is often associated with ‘asking’ Google Maps for directions. Over one billion people per month use Google Maps and Google estimates that one-in-three mobile searches is location-related. Whose routes does Google Maps direct one towards and what types of pathways become naturalized? I approached these questions through performance- and drawing-based research. In the early 1960s, artist Stanley Brouwn stood on a street corne…

The iSquare protocol
This article introduces the iSquare protocol, a novel application of the draw-and-write technique. The protocol was developed in the field of information science to explore the visual dimension of information and as an alternative and complement to written definitions of information that dominate the literature. In addition to generating a new visual perspective on information, the approach has proven fruitful for artistic and pedagogical purpose…
