Staying with the Trouble: Applying Feminism to Visualization Research by Derya Akbaba, University of Linkoping
Feminist theories are not uncommon in visualization research. Feminism have guided discussions about the principles of design, ethical considerations when using data, and guidelines for considering the impact of visualizations. Derya's research builds on extant work at the intersection of feminism and visualization by engaging with feminist theories to further trouble common assumptions within visualization research. During this talk, she will discuss her recent work, threading together three projects at this intersection: feminist ethics of care as a lens to understand researcher responsibility during collaborations; a situated materialist perspective on data and knowledge; and performance art as protest against chart junk.
