"What's past is prologue" - Shakespeare I'm fascinated by "Calculating Empires", a research visualization that lets you explore 500 years of technological and social evolution. You can navigate through time periods, themes, and systems - from algorithms to architecture, bodies to borders - and trace how communication, computation and control have shaped empires from the early Renaissance until today and laid the groundwork for modern technological power structures.

Kate Crawford and Vladan Joler’s “Calculating empires” (2023) Must-read for my Digital Humanities students, and also worth your time: “A visualization of large-scale research exploring the coevolution of technical and social structures over five centuries. The objective is to place the contemporary period within a longer trajectory of ideas, devices, infrastructures, and systems of power. It traces technological patterns of colonialism, militarization, and automation (…) providing a way to view our technological present within a deeper historical context.” https://lnkd.in/dYB-FCM9

I am pleased to announce the publication of my systematic review paper in a Q1 journal, entitled 'The Application of Space Syntax to Enhance Sociability in Public Urban Spaces: A Systematic Review'. This paper could be considered as an encyclopedia for researchers who are interested in pursuing their research through space syntax, social, and behavioral science in urban studies. I would like to express my appreciation to my collaborators, Patxi J. Lamíquiz Daudén and Chiara Garau for their contributions to this study. #spacesyntax #systematicreview #prisma Access the article here: https://lnkd.in/dAmnnCS7
