💻📢 Excited to share our study of fat people's experiences in online communities (w/ @blakeley, @katta, @cfiesler) has been accepted to GROUP 2025!
#crip and #queer stuff. Largely within #Human-Computer-Interaction, though dabbling as well. Currently working at #TUWien as an Assistant Professor on #CriticalAccess in Embodied Computing.
🌟 New paper alert! 🪩
Our paper “Building Solidarity Amid Hostility: Experiences of Fat People in Online Communities” is out and will be presented at GROUP ‘25!
So much care from @jordant, @katta, @cfiesler, and I went into it! 💜

New paper with Robin Angelini and Katta Spiel!
What would technologies look like if they centred around the experiences and desires of deaf people? We highlight the concept of DeafWatch as a starting point for new ways of thinking about technology from deaf-centred perspectives.
Important takeways from yesterday:
👉 Centering failure as a path to queer utopias and radical accessibility: Failure, often dismissed under capitalism, can transform and empower, opening space for reimagined queer futures.
👉 Imagine theater where sign language is fully integrated—not just translated—making accessibility a core experience.
✨Grateful for the insights from Pam Eden (https://pameden.com) and Jacobs Nora (https://brut-wien.at/de/Kuenstler-innen/Jacobs-Nora).

Ich versuchs mal hier. Heute früh hat mir das Kind beim Spielen leider den Sensor abgerissen. Hat hier zufällig wer einen Freestyle Libre 2 oder 3, den ich abkaufen kann? Apotheken führen die in Hamburg anscheinend nicht. #37c3
@puck152 na dann bis gleich.
@puck152 oh hi!

Wir haben die beiden unter viel Aufwand hier her gebracht. Das beinhaltete etwa auch die Suche nach entsprechenden Förderungen. Wer also Ideen hat wie wir zukünftig ÖGS und DGS als fixen Bestandteil zum Congress bringen ebenfalls gerne melden!
3) kommt heute um 18:00 Uhr zahlreich zu "Kommunikation und Interaktion mit Gehörlosen - ein paar Grundlagen" (Dauer: 90 Min) https://events.ccc.de/congress/2023/hub/de/event/kommunikation-und-interaktion-mit-gehrlosen-ein-paar-grundlagen/

Hello. I’m at #37c3. Whee. Happy to hang.
I am delighted to announce that Dr. @katta Spiel will be our invited speaker at the CHAI workshop at Interact in York. Their talk's title is "Machine Talk: How Artificial Language Technologies Come to Flatten Human Experiences."
If you are as excited as I am about their topic, consider submitting a position paper and joining us for the workshop!

The paper has been published (and #openAccess ! ) in the ACM's Digital Library!

#CHI2023
Also, I'll be at #altCHI #CHI2023 , presenting with, amongst others, @lavolsky , @stoni and @katta a paper on how disabled folks imagine a world better suited to our needs. Spoilers: while there's quite some differences, there are also overlappings.

Erstmals wurde in #Österreich der Geschlechtseintrag "nicht-binär" gerichtlich anerkannt. Ein wichtiger Etappensieg für #venib und die #genderklage
@ali they want me to be like: this is how you include queers and crips into this hellscape of a society so everyone else can feel like they’re oh so inclusive.
Meanwhile queers and crips are like: we need to dismantle the whole damn system of oppression.
And that doesn’t make the others feel good, so the critique stops being useful.
Is that what you mean?
