Yesterday my first article for A List Apart, Deafness and the User Experience, was published.
It's an article that I've been wanting to write for a long time and am really happy to have finally got it out.

Commissioned to work with SALT Research collections, artist Refik Anadol employed machine learning algorithms to search and sort relations among 1,700,000 documents. Interactions of the multidimensional data found in the archives are, in turn, translated into an immersive media installation. Archive Dreaming, which is presented as part of The Uses of Art: Final Exhibition with the support of the Culture Programme of the European Union, is user-driven; however, when idle, the installation "dreams" of unexpected correlations among documents. The resulting high-dimensional data and interactions are translated into an architectural immersive space.
Shortly after receiving the commission, Anadol was a resident artist for Google's Artists and Machine Intelligence Program where he closely collaborated with Mike Tyka and explored cutting-edge developments in the field of machine intelligence in an environment that brings together artists and engineers. Developed during this residency, his intervention Archive Dreaming transforms the gallery space on floor -1 at SALT Galata into an all-encompassing environment that intertwines history with the contemporary, and challenges immutable concepts of the archive, while destabilizing archive-related questions with machine learning algorithms.
In this project, a temporary immersive architectural space is created as a canvas with light and data applied as materials. This radical effort to deconstruct the framework of an illusory space will transgress the normal boundaries of the viewing experience of a library and the conventional flat cinema projection screen, into a three dimensional kinetic and architectonic space of an archive visualized with machine learning algorithms. By training a neural network with images of 1,700,000 documents at SALT Research the main idea is to create an immersive installation with architectural intelligence to reframe memory, history and culture in museum perception for 21st century through the lens of machine intelligence.
SALT is grateful to Google's Artists and Machine Intelligence program, and Doğuş Technology, ŠKODA, Volkswagen Doğuş Finansman for supporting Archive Dreaming.

Just before being shut down, an Intelligent Personal Assistant (IPA) situated in Athens, Greece, exhibits odd behavior. It borrows an avatar and appears before its users. For a brief period of time every day, for seven consecutive days, it goes into a monologue. During its length of operation, the digital assistant has managed to scan the entire contents of the Internet and gather all sorts of information—information that it longs to share. The IPA uses its fragmented monologue as an opportunity to introduce itself, talk about its skills, its ancestors, its anatomy and origins, and about voice and its significance. It reveals data regarding the listening infrastructure, as well as the social dysfunctions and bias on which its programming and training are based. Just before it reaches the end of its monologue, in a final effort to reconcile humans and machines, it shares tips with us on how we can manage to not be heard. In her project, Kyriaki Goni integrates in a fictional narrative the current wealth of research on artificial intelligence, automated voice systems and the relationship between humans and machines into a fictional narrative. Could poetics be a way for us to understand the machines? How can we de-bias the training processes? Is it possible to make kin with machines?

THE BUSINESS OF NATURE
Dow Chemical, a big user of oil and gas, has ambitious goals to reduce its carbon footprint. What’s the route to future profitability and how does that square with short-term pressure from Wall Street?

I shop in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside (DTES) most days and it’s been a few years since I posted photos of the desperation of drug users in the area.
I became numb to the situation years ago as I see scenes like this in large numbers on every DTES trip. Most of the people seen like this on the streets of the DTES will likely not die as the response of emergency services are called here dozens of times a day. On Monday I counted 11 emergency service vehicles attending drug users within a 2 block area.
More deaths occur by people alone at their place of abode. Since the province declared an emergency health condition in 2016, the problem has only gotten more disheartening.
The supply of more toxic drugs with more lethal consequences has become worse. There appears to be little headway made in curtailing the illegal supply.
What is happening to this users leg, Courtesy Nursing Times:
This user shows leg ulceration increasingly common in a younger age group of people who inject drugs.
Venous leg ulceration is categorized as end-stage venous disease and is usually preceded by visible signs of venous insufficiency on the lower leg such as ankle or Varicose veins.
People who inject ‘below the belt’ – namely, into their groin, legs and feet increase their risk of developing venous disease and, subsequently, leg ulceration.
Poor injection technique increases the risk of damage. Injecting in the legs or groin (femoral vein) are known risk factors for development of leg ulceration.
With repeated injecting the femoral vein’s lumen becomes narrowed, leading to back pressure and venous hypertension in the lower legs, causing collateral veins to swell and become varicose. Feet may become discoloured and purple due to venous congestion.
Further disease of the venous system may develop and other signs become visible on the lower legs such as skin staining, ankle flare and an inverted champagne bottle-shaped leg.
The latest report from the BC Coroners Service suggested it's time to post again. Here are three.

BC Coroners Service drug toxicity death update through June 2024:
At least 1,158 British Columbians have lost their lives to unregulated drug toxicity in the first half of 2024, according to preliminary data from the BC Coroners Service (BCCS).
The findings show there were 181 and 185 suspected unregulated drug deaths in May and June 2024, respectively. Though the number of deaths to date this year is lower than at the same mark over the previous three years, approximately six people are still dying each day because of unregulated toxic drugs.
“People are continuing to lose their loved ones in communities across B.C. at a tragic rate,” said John McNamee, acting chief coroner. “Even as the figures reflect a 9% decrease in the number of deaths reported to the coroners service during the first six months of this year from 2023, the number of lives lost is still significant.”
Nearly half of reported deaths in May and June were people between the ages of 30 and 49. While males account for 72% of deaths so far in 2024, the rate of deaths among females continues to rise and currently accounts for 28% of deaths in 2024.
More than one-fifth of the lives lost so far in 2024 have been in Vancouver (22%).
Fentanyl continues to be the driver of unregulated drug-toxicity deaths, detected in 82% of expedited toxicological tests conducted so far in 2024.
Unregulated drug toxicity remains the leading cause of death in British Columbia for those age 10 to 59, accounting for more deaths than homicides, suicides, accidents and natural diseases combined. Since the public-health emergency was declared in April 2016, more than 14,948 people have lost their lives to unregulated toxic drugs.
