On this page I link to everything I’ve made in the past few years (for formal academic publications, check the research page).

Essays

Overclocked: AI gender recognition and trans people

An essay I wrote for CSDM03 (Computational Skills for Digital Social Scientists) as a follow-up to work previously undertaken by Os Keyes (2018) on the operationalisation of gender in AI / HCI research spaces, I found little had changed. I have permission to publish this here from the module co-ordinator. [LaTeX Source].

Zines

Building queer technology counterpublics: The case of the Trans Tech Tent

A zine I made summarising my MSc dissertation where I worked with Trans Tech Tent (T3) to understand how trans people use technology in Wales and how T3 levels inequity in accessing technology for trans people in South Wales.
