Queer Data - Book discussion with Kevin Guyan, 6 February 2024, 17:00 CET, CIS CNRS Hypertextes
by Melanie Dulong de Rosnay Feb. 5, 2024

Feb. 5, 2024

Dear colleagues, The Center for Internet and Society of CNRS, Paris, organizes a monthly online reading event, Hypertexts, taking the form of a discussion with the author of a book that's making the news in the field of internet and society. Sessions are not recorded, link is sent upon registration. The next Hypertexts session will take place on Tuesday, February 6, 2024, from 5 to 6 pm CET, and we're delighted to host Kevin Guyan (University of Glasgow) for his book Queer Data (Bloomsbury Publishing, 2022). The book will be discussed by Simon Apartis and Ramya Chandrasekhar, researchers at CIS-CNRS. We invite those who are interested to sign up. The registration page is in French, but the session will be in English. Event page: https://cis.cnrs.fr/hypertextes-kevin-guyan/ Registration link: https://cis.cnrs.fr/extras/inscriptions/hypertextes.php Data has never mattered more. Our lives are increasingly shaped by it and how it is defined, collected and used. But who counts in the collection, analysis and application of data? This important book is the first to look at queer data – defined as data relating to gender, sex, sexual orientation and trans identity/history. The author shows us how current data practices reflect an incomplete account of LGBTQ lives and helps us understand how data biases are used to delegitimise the everyday experiences of queer people. Guyan demonstrates why it is important to understand, collect and analyse queer data, the benefits and challenges involved in doing so, and how we might better use queer data in our work. Arming us with the tools for action, this book shows how greater knowledge about queer identities is instrumental in informing decisions about resource allocation, changes to legislation, access to services, representation and visibility. Kind regards, -- Melanie Dulong de Rosnay Research professor, CNRS https://cis.cnrs.fr/en/melanie-dulong-2/ Director, Center for Internet and Society of CNRS, Paris https://cis.cnrs.fr/en/the-cis/
