After the intensive course on Exclusion and Inequality in the second week, I realized that there are many inequalities in society, which refer to the flow of resources, politics, economics, policy, health, labor, geography, time, and data inequality. Therefore, I learn the performance of “inequality” from various examples.   My undergraduate major is Internet and […]

Welcome back everyone! I’m starting out this blog post wondering where these past 3 weeks have gone. I think the intensive this past week and the intensive I have during week 4 have really captured my attention and I’ve had a hard time narrowing down my topic. I feel as though I’m at a crossroads […]

With the advancement of the information age, algorithms greatly improve the efficiency of people’s use of data, and they enable the reuse and reutilization of data. But in some ways, these technologies are precisely exacerbating various inequalities. There is a huge potential for growing income inequality. Leaders of various countries emphasized that the benefits of […]

Bonus content for week 3 as I had started this blog before writing my formal one. The random picture above is one I took a few winters ago near the city I live in. You can see the Rocky Mountains off in the distance on the horizon. Winter is my favorite season and for some […]

Hello again, I hope everyone has mostly recovered from a busy week. I have been trying to wrap my head around the idea for a project and think about how it ties into the intensive work this week.  Reflecting on the start of the week, it was just as it was described – intense.  I […]

The last two weeks have still felt a bit manic, with the first 2-day intensive (Exclusion & Inequality aka Toolbox) and prepping for the second (Postdigital Society). I’ve had to introduce myself so many times I think I might just write a short bio and store it somewhere so I can copy and paste it […]

A recap of last week’s topic: Welcome back! In last week’s blog, I reflected on soft skills assessments, self-awareness and much of what happens in my internal environment. I finished off with a thought on creative constraints- you can revisit this concept in Aadil Vora’s Ted talk here. Questions don’t always have answers This week’s […]

Week 3, Day 16 – Welcome to back to my wee blog & first reflections concerning the final project Hello! How is everyone? I hope you have all enjoyed the intensive days as much as I have and while I certainly need a bit of time to digest all the new information, I enjoyed learning […]

It took me a good few weeks to fully find my way around Edinburgh. To understand the way the bridges, streets and closes are connected. I’ve enjoyed navigating with no technology, getting lost and finding new exciting places. It’s always a fun “aha” moment when I’m wandering in a new area, and a street I […]
