Beyond (Mis)Representation: Visuals in COVID-19 Misinformation (2020, background): “There is reason to suspect that this sort of evidentiary support can bring into being claims that take on a life of their own—that move and grow and build new constituting networks of support (see Latour 1986).”
Pretrained AI Models: Performativity, Mobility, and Change (2019, background): “Since there is a decentralized, technology-mediated network of dissemination and change, there are no Latourian “centers of calculation” that maintain their scientific prominence and authority by having people continually return to them from hinterlands.”
Multiple Temporalities of Language and Body in Interaction: Challenges for Transcribing Multimodality (2018, background): “Transcribing is a fundamental research practice that relates to the importance of “inscriptions” in science (Latour, 1986), producing “immutable mobiles” that allow scholars both to perform analyses, e.g., to find patterns of order, and to circulate them—thereby providing both the evidence…”
