Living Data Systems: Co-Designing Community-Based Methods And Local Technologies For Inclusive Socioeconomic Alternatives

Accepted submission for CHI Doctoral Consortium 2023 (to be published in the Extended Abstracts)

It is necessary to research the implementation of novel data collecting methods and data-driven systems focused on non-traditional, qualitative and plural representations of knowledge. This could be instrumental for understanding how to visualise and integrate omitted, hidden or underrepresented experiences, how to include marginalised individuals with different backgrounds into diverse decision-making processes and how to co-design new technologies that account for shared values and non-monetary transactions, in contrast to the predominantly capital value mainstream networks.
