Love having @zeynep back from her (crucial) pandemic-focused thought leadership! "Telling people to not use these powerful platforms if they don’t want to be unreasonably surveilled is blaming the victim." nytimes.com/2022/05/19/opi…

An interesting read by @WorkPrayCode that touches on some of the conversations we had about tech culture in our Ritual episode - "Today, the theocracy of work... is hollowing out our faith communities and civic associations" nytimes.com/2022/05/24/opi…

In our latest pod episode we talked about people changing faces & bodies at the altar of "The Algorithm". And that's not the only way filters change us. To avoid angering the almighty algorithm, people are creating a new vocabulary - @TaylorLorenz washingtonpost.com/technology/202…

"For many influencers, deception is lucrative, and becoming increasingly extreme. There are some feigning their wealth, their followers and even their ethnicity while hawking dubious products to their followers." - theguardian.com/fashion/2022/f…

🌟New @thingsintersect pod out🌟 We talk about the faces that rise to the top on TikTok, how Instagram algorithms encourage stealing facial structures, and why “aesthetic flattening” has been the vibe of the pandemic - theintersectionofthings.com/episodes/ep28-…

In this episode Ruth & Marianela discuss what @jiatolentino calls the “rootless exoticism” of #InstagramFace, the “algorithmic tendency to flatten everything” - and how the pandemic has exaggerated them both - theintersectionofthings.com/episodes/ep28-…

New Episode! ⏰We go from new celebrities to reflections 🪞 and talk about mirror-selves, mirror-verses, and mirror cutters. It’s all about whose faces the algorithms love and reward - soundcloud.com/thingsintersec…

If, like us, you're not a fan of NFTs or the massive energy waste that is Bitcoin, you might enjoy going back to episode 10 - Money. 🪙🪙🪙 We looked at cryoto scams, colonialism & more - theintersectionofthings.com/episodes/ep10-…

After sharing that great article on inclusive spellings from @DIVAmagazine the other day, this beautifully designed piece by @MinamiFunakoshi & Samuel Granados on recognising the spectrum of genders across languages is a brilliant next read - graphics.reuters.com/GENDER-LANGUAG…
