Data has emerged as a pivotal factor shaping the global landscape, influencing how interactions are structured, mediated, and represented. This comprehensive book delves into the realm of these novel data publics, exploring their operational domains across politics, geography, environment, and social media platforms. By asserting its ability to transform every conceivable occurrence into an abstract code that can be endlessly manipulated and processed, digitally generated data has precipitated the collapse of traditional reference systems that rely on our capacity to establish points of origin. Authors from diverse disciplines contribute their insights into the intricate political economy of data capitalism, examining the political potentialities of techno-logics beyond data appropriation and refusal. They also address questions of visual, spatial, and geographical organization, shedding light on emerging ways of life and the environments that sustain them. Furthermore, the book explores the current challenges faced by data publics, through case studies of three of the most influential platforms in the social media economy today: Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
Data Publics is a valuable resource for academics and students pursuing studies in computer science, philosophy, sociology, media and communication studies, architecture, visual culture, art and design, and urban and cultural studies. It offers a comprehensive examination of the evolving landscape of data, its implications, and the opportunities it presents. By examining the political, social, and technological dimensions of data publics, this book provides a rich understanding of the complex dynamics shaping our world today.
