Surveillance, Stigma & Sociotechnical Design for HIV in Dating and Hookup Platforms with Calvin Liang, Jevan Hutson, and Os Keyes

In this episode we interview the interdisciplinary research team of Calvin Liang, Jevan Hutson, and Os Keyes around the motivation and research behind their paper: "Surveillance, Stigma & Sociotechnical Design for HIV". This paper analyzes the approaches that 49 online dating and hookup platforms have taken when designing for HIV disclosure. Calvin, Jevan, and Os point to bottom-up, communal, and queer approaches for design as a way of potentially making the tension between disclosure and risk easier to safely navigate. Their paper will be published in First Monday's Special Issue on HIV/AIDS and Digital Media in the Fall. Calvin and Os are PhD students in Human-Centered Design and Engineering at the University of Washington.  Jevan is a data justice advocate, human-computer interaction researcher, and recent graduate of the University of Washington School of Law.  Full show notes for this episode can be found at Radicalai.org.  If you enjoy this episode please make sure to subscribe, submit a rating and review, and connect with us on twitter at twitter.com/radicalaipod
