Once-in-a-Decade Conference: Unveiling the Impact of Computing Crises

Описание: In this video, we dive into the exclusive Aarhus Conference, an event that occurs only once every ten years. Three renowned researchers from the School of Interactive Computing were selected to present their groundbreaking paper. Discover how they approached the theme of 'Computing (X) Crisis' and explored the influence of computing on the human condition during times of global crises.
Assistant Professor Cindy Lin, Associate Professor Lynn Dombrowski, and Professor Shaowen Bardzell, the program chair of the 2015 Aarhus Conference, collaborated on a paper titled 'Whose, Which, and What Crisis?'. With a minuscule acceptance rate, their selection is a testament to the paper's significance.
Dive deep into their theoretical framework, which offers a unique perspective on understanding crises within the computing supply chain. Learn how these researchers, with their diverse expertise, identified common themes and examined their impact on the computing industry.
From data centers and their environmental impact to unjust labor practices and the effects of chip manufacturing on agriculture, this video explores the critical analysis presented by these scholars. Join us as we uncover the importance of 'against crisis thinking' and how it can shape the way we perceive and address societal and planetary issues through computing.
