publication descriptionEPISODE 8: Privacy ———- PART 1: Whose Data Is It? | Out of Reach? ———- Did Wikileaks teach us nothing? Professor Orit Halpern, an expert on big data and ubiquitous computing, guides us through the problem of PRIVACY. As our digital lives are fast expanding, and it has become second nature to share, share, share, have our ideas around privacy also changed? We meet three artists who remind us that data is both knowledge and power, and that without agency over this area of our lives, we are in more danger than we realise. Artists Ania Catherine & Dejha Ti, Frederik de Wilde and Agnieszka Kurant discuss digital footprints, how surveillance disproportionately affects black and brown communities, and the need for moral and legal structures around data collection to keep privacy in check. ———- ART+TECHNOLOGY is brought to you by Hyundai Motor Company and produced in partnership with Bloomberg Media Group.
