"We should remember that it is not Big Tech which saved us, but staying and home and wearing masks."

@MrsBunz from @kingsdh

"I was fascinated by the early apps, like that one in Singapore, and how they interacted together. Suddenly surveillance was not bad anymore, it could help us."

"Track & trace apps are middle class apps, not for gig economy"

@MrsBunz from @kingsdh.

"The UK app was forced to switch over to the private sector-created app. We must pay attention to the power of digital corporations shaping our infrastructure"

@MrsBunz from @kingsdh.

“Digital tools and imaginaries (hackathons, data activism) are remaking urban issues”

"Data activism is fundamental to define urban activism across mobility, sanitation, parks..."

"Digital activists must develop an idea of the city"

@rodrigo_firmino

#kcldhconf #2020Loathing

[Digital Humanities Conference - 2020 LOATHING @DHConferenceKCL]

"Data resistance at the margins plays an important role in the favela and local politics, which participate in a broader context of solidarity networks supported by data"

"The urban is reinvented through the actions of these networks"

@rodrigo_firmino #kcldhconf #2020Loathing

[Digital Humanities Conference - 2020 LOATHING @DHConferenceKCL]

"The hyperconnected/infected individual is the perfect character for surveillance; but it can also mobilise another sociotechnical imaginations based on care"

#kcldhconf #2020Loathing

Next, @rodrigo_firmino from @PUCPRoficial! Remember to send us your comments.

[Digital Humanities Conference - 2020 LOATHING @DHConferenceKCL]

This was @fernandabruno, from @medialabufrj: “With the virus, there's a spread of epidemiological simulations, data, modulating local government responses to the pandemic”

"Simple "universal" protocols like washing hands, wearing face masks... are not achievable by everyone"

[Digital Humanities Conference - 2020 LOATHING @DHConferenceKCL]

"The virus carrier is the latest character in a socio-technical ecosystem that has already trained machines to recognise populations"

"The pandemic transforms the inside of the home into a multifunctional space: office, school; leisure and work overlap"
