[Adminsysters] [Publication] Politics of Open Infrastructures - before 12

Fri Feb 16 17:41:25 CET 2024

Dears, I didn’t make it for a proposal. 
I am at a very different point in my dissertation, with other topics I really need to tackle now. Also, the deadline fell in my family holidays, and so I didn’t manage to come up with something that is both contributing to my thesis, AND original and unpublished, as they want it. 
I hope I did not let anybody down.

So yes, maybe we could have a conversation about the relation of infrastructural and cultural practices and turn that into a paper? (We could also think about who else to invite to the conversation, and also will need to discuss the things that are important to us and what we want to focus on.)
