Tactics&Practice #15: (Un)real Data – Real Effects

The 15th edition of Tactics&Practice explores how the ambiguous quality of data can be used as a tool to influence real world outcomes. How can the act of purposely creating data provide agency within data-driven systems? Is it possible to manipulate data to create specific real-world outcomes? https://aksioma.org/unrealdata/
