... questioned how algorithms organize digital ecosystems and produce social relations in media, politics, and society. In their work, these critics complicated public understandings of algorithms—reliant on ideas about objectivity, neutrality, and scientific precision—to reveal the human logics, biases...

... of pregnant androids and clone sister- mothers that can be read as queer and trans algorithms of kinship. The character of Number Eight, Sharon “Boomer” Valerii from Battlestar Galactica, played by Grace Park, a Korean Cana- dian actress, embodies the story of an android pregnant...

... of an algorithm to bring about viewer titillation through prideful stereotypes. But through dialogue with the clean- shaven venue attendant (who is wearing sun- glasses indoors), he is revealed to be thoughtful, admirable, and a regular guy, not an animated image of sexuality that reflects a marketable...

... indices of bioinformatics and surveillance tactics. The Index of the Disappeared also avoids mimetic realism in the depiction of subjects in the watercolors and is text heavy, often deploying redacted text. In the advent of predictive policing and algorithmic profiling, Kapadia points out how...

... forcefully in her final chapter on portraiture where, in keeping with her reading of Johnson's “transtemporal drag,” she compares his work to that of contemporary artist Zach Blas (210). The cross-chronological connection brings the urgency of Johnson's queer tactics of inscrutability to the algorithmically...

...- ing between feelings and fractals, unwieldy and algorithmic modes of description, yields a fibrous and felt science of transgender life. Woolly Pedagogy: The Handmade In Brain Storm Rebecca Jordan-­Young describes the “confused, confusing, and contentious...

..., following Jasbir Puar (2012: 155), as a mode of differential inclusion. Within the biopolitical landscape of the twenty- first century, differences, along the lines of race, class, gender, and sexuality, can be strategically folded into the national imaginary and administered through algorithmic exercises...

... and queer Latinx futures has increased. New possibilities for humanity emerge in ctions of pregnant androids and clone sister- mothers that can be read as queer and trans algorithms of kinship. The character of Number Eight, Sharon “Boomer” Valerii from Battlestar Galactica, played...

... in fact recruited subjects who are more likely to be of the same sexual orientation, plus all the data on the relationship and sexual orientation of the individual subjects. [The computer algorithm is complex but] a simple take on it might be this: if environment were the whole story, you would...
