Data As Relation: Introduction to the Podcasts by James Maguire and Brit Ross Winthereik

James Maguire hosts this series of five podcasts documenting the project 'DATA AS RELATION'. Data as Relation explores how big data is generated, negotiated and used in governance. The hypothesis of the project is that the use of big data and digitalization in the public sector and governance is not a mere technical upgrade of infrastructures, but implies a reinvention of society itself. The goal of the project is to study how innovative new data usage for decision making make new relations emerge between government, private companies, and citizens. The Data as Relation project is funded by the Velux Foundation (funding ID 12823) Official Website: dar.itu.dk/ Editing and technical guidance: Anders Kjærulff.
