Please answer the following questions and write your answers down.


When we talk about communicative infrastructures, which ones come to mind?


Pick one communicative infrastructure and answer the following questions:

  • Who makes and maintains the infrastructure?
  • Who can make decisions about the infrastructure? [mb: check how Karin rephrased this question elsewhere in the module]
  • What groups come to mind that use this infrastructure?

Pick a group to work with in this exercise.

What kind of group are you interested in (that you are possibly even part of)?

Ideas for possible groups:

  • Exhausted protestors
  • Striking academics
  • Radical librarians
  • Long-distance learners
  • System administrators of a platform that is increasingly used by alt right groups
