Making Information Matter: Understanding Surveillance and Making a Difference
Mareile KaufmannInformation matters to us. Whether recorded, recoded or unregistered – information co-shapes our present and our becoming. This book advances new views on information and surveillance practices. Starting with a methodology for studying the liveliness of information, Kaufmann provides four empirical examples of making information matter: association, conversion, secrecy and speculation. In so doing, she presents an original and comprehensive argument about the materiality of information and invites us to investigate, and to reflect about what matters. This is a go-to text for scholars and professionals working in the fields of surveillance, data studies and the digitization of specific societal sectors.
