Excited to see the #WhatIsTechnology2019 keynote tonight featuring Larry A. Hickman, Charlene Haddock Seigfried, and @ericshatzberg! Followers, feel free to mute this hashtag if not interested in ‘listening in’- will be using it this weekend.
— Andy Fischer Wright (@RevAndrewWright) April 12, 2019
Hickman: common usages of ‘technology’ are worth probing. Theory is a type of practice, thinking is type of action. McLuhan is still important! #WhatIsTechnology2019
— Andy Fischer Wright (@RevAndrewWright) April 12, 2019
Seigfried: Why have things gone wrong recently? Assumption that technology is value neutral is false. It is time to address systemic gender inequity in STEM. It is easier to produce marvels then deal with harms of use. Need to recognize history.#WhatIsTechnology2019
— Andy Fischer Wright (@RevAndrewWright) April 12, 2019
Schatzberg: History can reveal complex lineages of technology. ‘Technology’ as keyword for late modernity. Rescue ‘technology, from determinists, reassert linkage with ‘art’ #WhatIsTechnology2019

New Orientations, Queer Phenomenology in Public Interface Design: DIffracting Difference, Repatterning Relation at #whatistechnology2019 with @holtzclaw_h
— franny gaede (@mfgaede) April 12, 2019
Interface is not JUST a set of graphic design principles, but relies on graphic design/information visualization, user data/databases, network/AI science, software/hardware #whatistechnology2019
— franny gaede (@mfgaede) April 12, 2019
These components have a history of thought that guides design processes: enlightenment ideals & Newtonian physics; steeped in scientific objectivity/instrumental rationality; cognitive & behaviorist sciences; computer programming/HCI/network science #whatistechnology2019
— franny gaede (@mfgaede) April 12, 2019
Representationalist models deal in maps, mirrors & sameness; metaphysics of individualism, knowing as being; subject/object, you/other, us/them, binaries. When likeness & repetition become the model for connection, what becomes of difference? #whatistechnology2019
— franny gaede (@mfgaede) April 12, 2019
Queer performative model of diffractive-difference: disorientation & discomfort (doing as knowing, produced through sustained engagement with the unfamiliar) #whatistechnology2019
— franny gaede (@mfgaede) April 12, 2019
Disorientation is dependent on orientation, upon orientation as an ideological project. Ahmed 2004 (https://t.co/RHc0FfPqCH); Ahmed 2007 (https://t.co/8LsSX8eehm). #whatistechnology2019
— franny gaede (@mfgaede) April 12, 2019
What differentiates bodies is how they occupy (move, dwell in, do in) space. Disorientation acts as an educative doing. #whatistechnology2019

Defining marginalization: "the process through which persons are peripheralize on the basis of identities, associations, experiences, and environments" #whatistechnology2019

Communication confidence: Individuals who are marginalized experience feelings of isolation and a decreased sense of communication confidence. #whatistechnology2019
— franny gaede (@mfgaede) April 12, 2019
A speaker box is a network of individuals connected through intentional amplification that works at an individual level to increase communication confidence and at a network level to increase volume of marginalized voices. #whatistechnology2019
