i would

a) totally read a monograph on the applications of inkjet printers (hello #STSsky)
b) use it as a banner example of the difference between technology and product (hello @fasterandworse.com)

Question for #STSSKY I was hoping to find a nice little corpus of primary texts by American technologists and innovators like Hollerith, Hooper, Bush, etc. discussing issues related to American Democracy, or American Society. Would anyone know of either a collection, or have some suggestions?

Handmade flier with pink, yellow, green and yellow-green figures (all with clearly non-AI fingers) reading the book covers (but the figures are also drawn as if their bodies are the book covers) of the 4 books featured at the party. The flier includes the text that is repeated in the post.

If you're like me & are currently finalizing your syllabus, you should add this book to your course. Really.

My students & I had the opportunity to read a final draft, and it’s SO GOOD!
It sparked thoughtful, thought-provoking conversations. Plus, it’s open access!

Woke up to an article acceptance! Woohoo! So very excited to see my essay on Gloria E. Anzaldúa's queer feminist philosophies of science out in the world soon. #AcademicSky #LatinxSky #STSsky
