Living in Data
A Citizen's Guide to a Better Information Future
Jer Thorp - 2021-05-04
Calificación de Goodreads
Explore the world of data and its impact on our lives in Living in Data. Jer Thorp analyzes the evolution of the word "data" through 10,325 New York Times stories, revealing its association with new words like "ethics," "friends," and "play." Thorp raises a critical question: how do we become active citizens of data instead of passive inhabitants being extracted, classified, and surveilled? Living in Data takes readers on a journey through hippo attacks, glaciers, school gymnasiums, and minefields, offering new ways to engage with data and create a more just and democratic future. With original illustrations, Living in Data redefines what data is and who gets to speak its language.
