Invitation | PhDnet-Workshop "Design Thinking" | April 05, 2022
by nina.hahne＠cais.nrw March 10, 2022

March 10, 2022

Dear colleagues, Please share this invitation with doctoral students who might be interested in our workshop on Design Thinking for academic purposes. Kind regards Nina Hahne --------- Invitation: Online-Workshop Design Thinking Are you doing a PhD and have always wanted to learn Design Thinking? Then join our virtual PhDnet@CAIS workshop on April 05 (10 am 2 pm CEST) with Samuel Simon and find out how you can apply it to your own academic work. For more information and registration visit: <https://www.cais.nrw/workshop-design-thinking_en/> https://www.cais.nrw/workshop-design-thinking_en/ Program: The innovation method Design Thinking, as established by the Hasso Plattner Institute and consulting agencies like IDEO and others, is increasingly applied in various business settings. Why not as well in academia? For scientists in digitization research, design thinking can support both as a structural approach at the beginning of research work as well as an inspiring mindset to tackle challenges with new perspectives. Adapting Design Thinking methods for scientific contexts also offers rich impulses for agile work and efficient evaluation possibilities of any phase in your process. In the workshop you will learn to use natural moments of uncertainty productively and creatively to your advantage. We will start the workshop with a short overview of the different phases of the Design Thinking process and a classification that shows us that the method does not necessarily focus on thinking and has little to do with what we understand as design. In short, practical work units, we experiment with the interdisciplinary application of the different phases in the group. In doing so, we tap into design-oriented methods of research work, idea generation and problem definition, and learn how, among other things, to bring the various prototyping and testing methods into the scientific process. Together, we locate design thinking within the big innovation buzzword cloud, while creating systemically meaningful and applicable connections to familiar work and research methods.

CfP Weizenbaum Conference 2022
by Kiyan Farmand Feb. 8, 2022

Feb. 8, 2022

[cid:image001.png@01D81D0E.951AD160]<https://www.weizenbaum-conference.de/> [cid:image002.png@01D81D0E.951AD160] Call for Papers & Projects \ Weizenbaum Conference 2022 The Weizenbaum Institute for the Networked Society<https://www.weizenbaum-institut.de/en/> is organizing its 2022 annual conference on the subject of "Practicing Sovereignty. Interventions for open digital futures" and invites interested scholars and artists to submit papers and abstracts for presentations and workshops. The conference will take place at the venue "Alte Münze" in Berlin on Thursday, 9 June and Friday, 10 June 2022. The premises of how ICT impacts societies worldwide have changed. Instead of further indulging in collective imaginaries of better, digitally mediated futures, today's narratives are dominated by worrying aspects of the digital transformation. Issues such as the increasing vulnerability and manipulation of individuals, the violation of fundamental rights through mass surveillance, and the digitally mediated undermining of democratic institutions and practices have become more and more threatening to an open and free society. Against this backdrop, the notion of "digital sovereignty" is currently witnessing an increasing interest. Being hotly debated for its implied potentials, but also for its shortcomings, the term denotes diverse concepts that negotiate competences, duties, and rights in the digital age. Questions of trust, confidence, and competence - intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic - contextualize digital sovereignty in a fundamental re-consideration of what has been known as democratic principles, civil rights, and national identities. The international conference and exhibition will investigate new opportunities for digital participation and policymaking and discuss alternative technological and social practices from various fields and disciplines. We frame digital sovereignty as a right to be claimed and a process constantly in the making, as a condition of the ability to critically partake in the digital transformation. The conference will provide a transdisciplinary platform for scholars, artists, activists, and human rights advocates who develop transformative practices spaces to foster digital involvement. Grassroots initiatives, community projects, and participatory practices in design, art and activism appear as collective counter strategies and bottom-up interventions that challenge the normalization of inequalities and insecurities and push back against threats to an open society. They lay the groundwork for new forms of agency, paving novel ways of practicing sovereignty - both in the sense of collective activities as well as in terms of public education and experimentation. To investigate the notion of digital sovereignty while respecting the plurality of its forms and approaches, the conference and exhibition offer four different tracks with shifting focuses: \ Digital sovereignty: terms, concepts, limitations \ Datafication and democracy \ Digital literacies and inequalities \ Digital sovereignty and scientific autonomy Digital sovereignty: terms, concepts, limitations As a central concept in current policy discourses, digital sovereignty addresses various challenges posed by the digital transformation. This track will address theoretical approaches in the current discourses on regulatory, technological, and civil society perspectives on digital sovereignty, and discuss approaches that are being negotiated. They range from a territorial viewpoint for digitally sovereign entities to an individual perspective of self-determination in everyday life and touch upon questions of autonomy, control, and authority. Contributions may include but are not limited to: \ Different (digital) ontologies and corresponding notions of sovereignty \ Relations between sovereignty and the digital \ Conceptual elements of how to analyze (digital) sovereignty \ Shifting power systems through the digital transformation of societies \ Public reflections of sovereign powers \ Alternative sovereignty concepts for democratic value Datafication and democracy How can we reimagine the politics of data? Automated decision-making, predictive policing, social scoring - computational datafication and automation are changing structures and procedures not only of private corporations but also of governments and public institutions. At the same time, people\s everyday lives become datafied lives. Digital means and tools empower them to demand access to government information (freedom of information, open government) and to actively partake in political decision-making. But they also burden citizens with responsibility: It is often up to the individual to resist and protest the collection and exploitation of their personal data by private corporations and intelligence agencies. With these new challenges and possibilities, liberal democracies seem to be at a crossroads: Are people becoming a mere datapoint in an opaque machinery of computation whose results and decisions we can neither comprehend nor challenge? Or can we, by new means of engagement and by redefining technical infrastructures as public infrastructures, strengthen democracy and advance social progress? Contributions may include but are not limited to: \ Changing structures in governments and public institutions through datafication \ Open government, open data, open source \ Public interest design \ Surveillance capitalism: data extractivism and the quantification of the individual \ Automated decision making vs. digitally aided sovereignty \ Ownership of digital infrastructure: private property and the public sphere Digital literacies and inequalities How can we grasp and trace the interrelations between social inequalities and digital divides? How can we develop new strategies for socio-technical public education that ensure equitable and democratic engagements with regulatory debates around technologies? Through the lens of a so called "third level digital divide" - a concept that addresses the capacity to achieve adequate outcomes and benefits from our digital actions - we can look beyond simplistic conceptions of access to technologies and information. This track will discuss digital literacies in a broader, socio-cultural sense as a creative, performative, and inherently political everyday practice and thus use digitality as a lens to discuss intersectional inequalities. With this, it will examine both the causes and consequences of power, privilege, and oppression in the digital realm, and feature theories, practices and tactics for addressing and countering the increasing amount of digital inequalities and disparities on a global level. Contributions may include but are not limited to: \ Digitalization and gender and intersectionality \ Gender-equitable design of digital or socio-technical systems \ In/visibility of oppressive forces in digital algorithms and products \ New strategies for socio-technical public education and public pedagogy \ Art, technology and exploit: exposing power inequalities through artistic practice \ Digital activism as digital empowerment of groups and individuals Digital sovereignty and scientific autonomy The digital transformation of scientific work comes with promises of faster collaboration, increased rigour and broader access to knowledge. At the heart of these scientific imaginaries are new digital infrastructures that connect researchers, organizations, and artifacts. However, today an increasing number of these infrastructures are developed and controlled by a handful of powerful technology firms and publishing companies. This development poses a threat to scientific autonomy, as such crucial infrastructures are shaped by the data imperative and extractive logics of platform capitalism rather than the needs of the scientific community. To contribute to the project of digital sovereignty, science needs to reclaim its autonomy in digitally networked environments first. The goal of this conference track is to bring together critical perspectives and generative proposals on the crisis of scientific autonomy in the digital condition. Contributions may include but are not limited to: \ Data repositories and preprint servers \ Tracking technologies and academic surveillance \ Predatory publishing \ Open science and open education \ Distributed trust technologies in science \ Digital metrics and evaluation tools Call for Papers This call for papers, projects and workshops invites scholars, artists, designers, activists, and civil society initiatives to submit papers and workshops to one of the four tracks. Inter- and transdisciplinary work is particularly encouraged. We are looking forward to many inspiring contributions!

Invitation | Workshop: Cultural Heritage Institutions from a Commons Perspective | 01.03.2022
by nina.hahne＠cais.nrw Feb. 2, 2022

Feb. 2, 2022

Dear colleagues, CAIS cordially invites PhD students from all disciplines to participate in our upcoming workshop "Cultural Heritage Institutions from a Commons Perspective". The workshop will be held virtually on March 01 from 4-7 pm (CET). It is organized by Dr. Jörg Lehmann (University of Tuebingen), who is currently Fellow at our institution: <https://www.cais.nrw/en/fellows_en/fellow_lehmann_2021/> https://www.cais.nrw/en/fellows_en/fellow_lehmann_2021/ Please share this invitation with potential participants. Workshop: Cultural Heritage Institutions from a Commons Perspective Cultural Heritage Institutions have started digitizing their assets about twenty years ago. Since then, a range of legal problems accompanying digitization efforts have been identified, and usage scenarios have changed a lot. The cultural legitimacy of private corporations making use of these resources is challenged. This workshop takes an understanding of cultural heritage as a cultural commons as its starting point, presents the results of the ongoing research project entitled The Tragedy of the Cultural Commons focusing on cultural heritage institutions, identifies and discusses relevant legal questions that need to be addressed, and takes further research into perspective. Key Learnings: * Gain insight in current legal debates on copyrights, intellectual property rights, intangible cultural heritage, and regulations pertaining to access to cultural heritage * Deepened understanding of the recently developed cultural commons framework and the application of a systematic analytic approach to an existing research field * Comprehension of the interaction between legal norms and societal as well as technical developments * Getting an idea about how scientific debates are driven by new terms and concepts presented in the academic arena Confirmed Participants: <http://www.brettfrischmann.com/> Brett Frischmann, Charles Widger Endowed University Professor in Law, Business and Economics, Villanova University, Pennsylvania, USA. <https://michaelmadison.net/> Michael J. Madison, Professor of Law and Faculty Director of the Future Law Project at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. <https://madelynsanfilippo.com/> Madelyn Rose Sanfilippo, Assistant Professor, School of Information Sciences, University of Illinois, Illinois, USA.

At this time, we are continuing preparations for CPDP2021 to take place in Brussels on January 27-29. However, we will review this on an ongoing basis as well as engaging in contingency planning. We are also working on alternatives to the physical conference. We will update you on any decisions promptly.* This call for panels is aimed at academic consortia, research projects, think tanks and other research organisations. (Another call, to individuals for academic research papers, will go out later this month) Humanity is going through a historical moment with a global pandemic reshaping our lives and the world we live in. Public health measures combined with tech solutionism is taking surveillance to the next level. Surveillance has become more and more normalized into our lives. Contact tracing apps and wearables are being introduced while governments are discussing immunity passports and long-term border restrictions. The global economy is in the opening stages of a recession which means that the inequalities will grow further in the aftermath of this pandemic. We are moving more of our lives online. Telemedicine and online classrooms are likely to become staples of everyday life. Amidst all these changes, is there also a change in the way we are looking at things and rethinking the possible? What will be the legacy of this pandemic on human rights including privacy and data protection? How do we enforce individual and collective rights in a changing world? The theme of CPDP2021 is ‘Enforcing Rights in a Changing World’. We welcome cutting edge panels in all areas related to technology, privacy and data protection, but particularly invite proposals that fit the general conference theme. We particularly seek panel proposals addressing the following topics: - Innovative and interdisciplinary approaches to enforcement and oversight - Data protection and inequality - Digital infrastructures as sites of power - Health and medtech - Appification of everything - Balancing rights in extreme situations - Public health surveillance - Surveillance of migration and borders - Data protection and law enforcement - New perspectives on privacy and data protection - The role of privacy and other fundamental rights in data protection - Right to an effective remedy - Privacy and data protection in the public sector - Socio-economic rights and data protection - Visual and artistic approaches to privacy and data protection - Algorithmic harms and data justice We encourage panels that are well-balanced, multidisciplinary, geographically and gender diverse. We also welcome different types of sessions such as debates, roundtables, workshops and other non-conventional formats. More information about rules for panel composition and submission can be found here <https://2dsf1.r.ag.d.sendibm3.com/mk/cl/f/VwB5ozCLedlEcojneT300olIh8tgiHB1v…> . Please note: Chosen institutions, organisations or EU research projects will become CPDP2021 event partners. This implies that the event partner is able to finance all costs of the panel speakers (travel and lodging) in addition to paying a conference contribution of €1300. In return, the event partner will be granted a number of benefits such as logo recognition, conference bag insert and full conference registration for the panelists. As part of our contingency planning, digital partnership options will be available with a set of benefits adapted to the virtual conference setting. Please contact us at info(a)cpdpconferences.org for more information. Organizations such as nonprofits for whom the panel fee would cause financial hardship can get in touch after submitting their panel proposal.
