Zusammenfassung
Data is gathered and presented towards both clarification and
inspiration, but also in ways that obscure and confuse. Within
creative practices that engage the technological, data plays a cen-
tral role as a medium for aesthetic objects, motivating and justify-
ing arguments, and even sanctioning design and policy decisions.
The more frequently we engage with datasets and databases, the
all-too-human nature information collection and representation
comes to the fore. This article was presented as part of “The Data
Body on the Dissection Table. Arts, Humanities, Medicine and
Complex Network” on June 4th, Copenhagen,
