Not very frequent on this platform so delayed in posting this update. Also, Academia is difficult: so I receive such news with great humility. It is never a sprint, always a marathon. Fortunate to have been blessed with great mentors, brilliant students, and a supportive family.

Can we really #Decolonise #Science? I attempt to engage with this question in my TEDx talk on the 18th of January at the @Omnia Conference Centre at @WUR. I will be talking about the need for science to act as a bridge between different #knowledge traditions.

Delighted to contribute this essay with @AdityaDeshbandu to @OUPAcademic's The Year's Work in Critical and Cultural Theory on why and how #digitalhumanities has a massive stake in #CriticalAI studies and resisting technopositivist imaginaries. @FAHACS @LeedsUniAHC @datasociety
