Chapter 9: Refusal

The readings for Ethical Data Futures have been challenging my approach to tech and AI in my Futures Project. In particular, the concept of “refusal” or “informed refusal,” addressed by scholars such as Ruha Benjamin, has pushed my thinking on likely and possible futures for these technologies. 

Chapter 8: Back to my roots

Over the holiday, I was reflecting on my writing practice and the fact that my main interest is in speculative fiction for the young adult (YA) audience. This made me wonder why I defaulted to an adult narrator and themes for the creative portion of my Futures Project, and prompted me to begin envisioning an alternate, YA version of my project to see if it might be an interesting direction.
