This September, CitizenScience.AI in ScaDS.AI Dresden/Leipzig is inviting you to the workshop Collecting Data as Counter Practice of hybrid format in its event series Pillars and Umbrellas. Here we collaborate with Ren Loren Britton and Iz Paehr from MELT, a team of two innovative persons from Berlin which engages a value-based practice that centers on Disability Justice, Trans*feminisms, anti-racist and critical technical practices. MELT questions how and with what intentions the experiences of marginalized groups are quantified, compiled and counted as data. In this workshop they initiate the experience of new and personal insights on this matter and empower people on their way to experience reclaiming data to recount different – or other – stories.
