Titled "ABOUT 26 SQUARES", the cover image for this issue of Catalyst examines the function and weaponization of metaphor in the context of tenancy and economic oppression. It consists of  a rectangular digital collage whose foreground depicts a square enclosed by a thin red border, containing dynamic and abstract color fields, and a background consisting of faint, digital artifacts in purple and teal arranged across a field of muted yellow-gray. In dialogue with El Lissitzky's About Two Squares, this work contends that through novel forms of collaboration and communication, metaphor's power can be wrested from the State, towards horizons of revolutionary possibility. For more about Alex Cruse’s work, please visit https://alexcruse.xyz.
这期《催化剂》的封面图片题为“约26个广场”,探讨了隐喻在租赁和经济压迫背景下的功能和武器化。它由一个矩形的数字拼贴画组成,其前景描绘了一个被细红色边框包围的正方形,包含动态和抽象的色域,背景由紫色和青色的微弱数字人工制品组成,排列在柔和的黄灰色区域上。在与利西茨基的《关于两个广场》的对话中,这部作品认为,通过新颖的合作和交流形式,隐喻的力量可以从国家手中夺取,走向革命可能性的视野。欲了解更多Alex Cruse的作品,请访问https://alexcruse.xyz。

Notes toward a Virtual Poetics: An Essay on Solaris, Assemblage, and Blackness 迈向虚拟诗学的笔记:一篇关于Solaris、集合与黑暗的随笔

My inquiry aims to recast the media of new media studies both as an interface and a racialized site of violation. I call on the writings of artists, theorists, and social scientists to redefine this word; to explore the ways the language of new media and the virtual spaces they occupy might describe an emergent, politically charged poetics. As a primary text, I examine Stanisław Lem’s Solaris (and Andreĭ Tarkovskiĭ’s adaptation), whose black ocean resists actively the scientists’ attempts to apprehend or describe it. Both novel and film, as with the Solarian surface itself, perform, I argue, an opaque, Virtual Poetics—a generically unstable aesthetic model at once of, but not bound exclusively to, Black aesthetics. More critically, I point to a racially charged figure in Lem’s text, who doubly mediates the colonial pasts endemic to the genre, in order to establish the political stakes for artists who commit to opacity as an aesthetic principle. I set the scholarship of Neda Atanasoski and Kalindi Vora, Simone Browne, Lisa Nakamura, Saidiya Hartman, and Julia Kristeva in conversation with art-objects by poet Dolores Dorantes and visual artist Jeron Braxton to provide a grammar with which we might approach this poetics.
我的研究旨在将新媒体研究中的媒体重塑为一个界面和一个种族化的违规场所。我呼吁艺术家、理论家和社会科学家的作品重新定义这个词;探索新媒体的语言及其所占据的虚拟空间可能描述一种新兴的、充满政治色彩的诗学。作为主要文本,我研究Stanisław莱姆的《索拉里斯》(以及安德烈·塔可夫斯基的改编),其中的黑色海洋积极抵制科学家试图理解或描述它的企图。我认为,小说和电影,就像Solarian的表面本身一样,表现出一种不透明的、虚拟的诗学——一种普遍不稳定的美学模式,它同时属于黑人美学,但并不局限于黑人美学。更重要的是,我在莱姆的作品中指出了一个充满种族色彩的人物,他双重调解了这一流派特有的殖民历史,以便为那些致力于将不透明作为美学原则的艺术家建立政治赌注。我将Neda Atanasoski和Kalindi Vora, Simone Browne, Lisa Nakamura, Saidiya Hartman和Julia Kristeva的奖学金与诗人Dolores Dorantes和视觉艺术家Jeron Braxton的艺术品进行对话,以提供我们可以接近这种诗学的语法。

On Digital Models: Responding to Viral Metaphors in Pandemic Times 论数字模型:在大流行时期应对病毒式隐喻
Pub Date : 2022-11-07 DOI: 10.28968/cftt.v8i2.36263

COVID-19 has been a crisis represented and interpreted through models. Models are metaphors that illustrate one phenomenon in and through another that is better understood or seemingly more transparent. In this article, we consider digitally driven COVID-19 models that draw on the certainty of data from smartphones and social networks to make predictions about a poorly understood virus. Network data normally used to model information spread drive models of an actually existing biological virus. A return to HIV network models of the 1980s helps map the social implications of this latest turn to modeling. These earlier models were used to hone stigmatizing viral metaphors about behavior, risk, and exposure, in the shadow of an emerging digital culture. Thinking across COVID-19 and HIV modeling demonstrates how models can support personal responsibilization, be used to blame “bad” actors, and justify the creep of new surveillance practices under the rubric of “Data for Good” programs. Drawing on critical HIV and queer studies, we argue that the people and behaviors that are opaque to viral models and their methods of capture present potential avenues for speaking back to digital virality’s terms. We highlight these exceptions, which show how certain lives make trouble for models and their sensibilities, telling of queer forms of life, desire, and contact that evade modeling altogether.
COVID-19是一场通过模型来表现和解释的危机。模型是一种隐喻,通过更好地理解或看起来更透明的另一种现象来说明一种现象。在本文中,我们考虑了数字驱动的COVID-19模型,该模型利用智能手机和社交网络的确定性数据来预测一种知之甚少的病毒。通常用于建模信息的网络数据传播了实际存在的生物病毒的驱动模型。回到20世纪80年代的艾滋病毒网络模型有助于绘制出这一最新转向建模的社会含义。在新兴数字文化的阴影下,这些早期的模型被用来磨练关于行为、风险和暴露的污名化病毒隐喻。通过对COVID-19和艾滋病毒模型的思考,展示了模型如何支持个人责任,如何被用来指责“不良”行为者,以及如何为“数据为善”项目下的新监测实践的蔓延辩护。通过对艾滋病毒和酷儿的研究,我们认为病毒模型及其捕获方法不透明的人和行为为数字病毒传播的术语提供了潜在的途径。我们强调了这些例外,它们展示了某些生活如何给模特和她们的情感带来麻烦,讲述了那些完全逃避模特的奇怪的生活形式、欲望和联系。

This visual essay draws on an autoethnographic study to present snapshots of mundane academic practice during the pandemic, using these to reflect on care and care practices within academia. Our approach is inspired by a “pinboard” (Law 2007): we use an echo of the two-dimensional space the pinboard offers to present our material through logics of juxtaposition and resonance, rather than attempting to craft a linear argument. 
这篇视觉文章借鉴了一项自我民族志研究,展示了大流行期间世俗学术实践的快照,并利用这些快照来反思学术界的护理和护理实践。我们的方法受到了“钉板”(Law 2007)的启发:我们使用钉板提供的二维空间的回声,通过并置和共鸣的逻辑来呈现我们的材料,而不是试图制作线性论证。

Game Over: The Perils of Framing Feminist Game Design Pedagogy as Repair versus Transformation 游戏结束:将女权主义游戏设计教学法定义为修复vs转变的危险
Pub Date : 2022-11-07 DOI: 10.28968/cftt.v8i2.37709
Amy Corron, Rebecca Rouse
Drawing on the experience of a multiyear research project bringing transformative pedagogies to game design education, we provide a critical reflection on the lack of sustainability of the project. Upon examination, we see that some reasons behind this perceived failure are due to institutional systems of power that seek to neutralize transformative feminist pedagogy as performative repair, resulting in the maintenance of existing curricula. Instead of fully engaging with transformative pedagogies, these teaching and learning methods are used as tools to provide a cursory fulfillment of the deep need for social justice education in games. We examine the ways in which structures and systems continually devalue and de-resource pedagogical work, specifically pedagogies that are centered in feminist, anti-racist, and critical approaches, as well as our own complicity within these oppressive structures at times. We draw connections with relevant disciplinary perspectives on higher education, and conclude by offering a framework for understanding the pitfalls that can hamper work with transformative pedagogical aims, characterized by the types of labor used to maintain the status quo, as well as a set of recommendations for moving beyond the frame of repair to sustainably and radically disrupt dominant pedagogies in games and related disciplines.
根据一个多年的研究项目的经验,我们为游戏设计教育带来了革命性的教学方法,我们对项目缺乏可持续性进行了批判性的反思。经过研究,我们发现这种失败背后的一些原因是由于权力制度体系试图将变革的女权主义教学法作为行为修复来中和,从而导致对现有课程的维护。这些教学和学习方法并没有完全融入变革教学法,而是被用作工具,粗略地满足游戏中社会正义教育的深层需求。我们研究了结构和系统不断贬低和减少教学工作资源的方式,特别是以女权主义、反种族主义和批判方法为中心的教学法,以及我们自己在这些压迫性结构中的同谋。我们与高等教育的相关学科观点建立了联系,并通过提供一个框架来理解可能阻碍具有变革性教学目标的工作的陷阱,以维持现状的劳动类型为特征,以及一系列超越修复框架的建议,以可持续地彻底破坏游戏和相关学科的主导教学方法。

The Bias Cut: Toward a Technopoetics of Algorithmic Systems 偏见切割:走向算法系统的技术
Pub Date : 2022-11-07 DOI: 10.28968/cftt.v8i2.37867
D. Rosner
This essay explores a material engagement with discourses of bias. At a time when the developers of algorithmic systems are exploring concepts of bias like never before, textile bias (or the skew of woven material) offers an alternative view into the scripts of computational engagement. To probe this potential, this essay engages a range of feminist and anti-racist interventions in performance arts, critical archival studies, and my own pedagogical collaborations. With these experiments, I ask, how might material bias inform ongoing analysis of cultural bias within machine learning systems? The experiments reveal interwoven dynamics of power, labor, and historicity with particular attention to complicity and change. Through angular encounters with bias, I explore the development of an emerging technopoetics of algorithmic systems.
这篇文章探讨了与偏见话语的实质性接触。当算法系统的开发人员前所未有地探索偏见的概念时,纺织品偏见(或编织材料的倾斜)为计算参与的脚本提供了另一种观点。为了探索这种潜力,本文涉及了一系列女权主义和反种族主义干预行为艺术,批判性档案研究,以及我自己的教学合作。通过这些实验,我问,物质偏见如何影响机器学习系统中正在进行的文化偏见分析?这些实验揭示了权力、劳动和历史性相互交织的动态,特别关注共谋和变化。通过与偏见的角度接触,我探索了算法系统的新兴技术的发展。

Trouble[shooting]caring: Technologies in Pedagogical Practice 关怀:教学实践中的技术
Pub Date : 2022-11-07 DOI: 10.28968/cftt.v8i2.37277
Hong-An Wu
As digital media making becomes increasingly popularized in classrooms, media and arts educators are faced with not only familiarizing digital technologies for curricular planning but also improvising with these unwieldy objects during pedagogical exchanges. Drawing from my five-week action research project, teaching and learning digital art making through digital game modifications, this paper explores the repeated moments of technological breakdowns, failures, and troubles during pedagogical practices through the metaphor of troubleshooting that guided how we framed and approached these troubles. Specifically, I argue that to troubleshoot is to standardize our situated contexts to universal terms, to engage in a relationship premised on the framework of control, and to invest in the temporal order of technological development as predetermined knowledge. As such, I foreground a desire for a different metaphor and turn towards the metaphor of troublecaring to speculate how to respond to the offers of inquiry made by these moments of technological breakdowns, failures, and troubles.
随着数字媒体制作在课堂上的日益普及,媒体和艺术教育者不仅要熟悉数字技术以进行课程规划,还要在教学交流中即兴使用这些笨重的物体。根据我为期五周的行动研究项目,通过数字游戏修改来教授和学习数字艺术制作,本文通过故障排除的隐喻来探索教学实践中技术故障,失败和麻烦的重复时刻,指导我们如何构建和处理这些问题。具体来说,我认为排除故障就是将我们所处的环境标准化为通用术语,参与以控制框架为前提的关系,并将技术发展的时间顺序作为预先确定的知识进行投资。因此,我希望有一个不同的隐喻,并转向麻烦的隐喻,以推测如何回应这些技术故障、失败和麻烦的时刻所提出的质疑。

Introduction: Metaphors as Meaning and Method in Technoculture 导论:隐喻在技术文化中的意义和方法
Pub Date : 2022-11-07 DOI: 10.28968/cftt.v8i2.39036
T. Cowan, Jasmine Rault
Metaphors are critical sites of analysis for feminist scholars of science and technology because of what they both conceal and divulge about the conditions of their historical emergence and the persistence of those conditions. As researchers and editors, we find ourselves oriented to work that takes up the task of contesting uncontested metaphors, considering how metaphor “invades” (Tuck & Yang 2012, 3) and evacuates meaning. This Special Section carries on the dynamic practice in feminist STS of taking the work, and ambivalent potentiality, of metaphor seriously. In this Introduction, we draw together scholarship that informs what we identify as the "metaphor-work" of feminist STS—the work of allegory, myth, metaphor, figurative and associative discourse, and their analysis—as central to the methods by which we make and remake meanings that matter to feminist technocultures. Throughout the metaphor-work collected here, the contributors propose that paradigm change comes through the collective refusal of some metaphors, through the re-evaluation of others, and the introduction of new metaphorical frames and figures to reorient our work. 
隐喻是研究科学和技术的女性主义学者分析的重要场所,因为它们既隐藏又揭示了它们历史出现的条件以及这些条件的持续存在。作为研究人员和编辑,我们发现自己倾向于承担挑战无争议隐喻的任务,考虑隐喻如何“入侵”(Tuck & Yang 2012, 3)和疏散意义。本专题对女性主义STS中重视隐喻的工作及其矛盾潜能进行了动态实践。在这篇导论中,我们汇集了一些学者,这些学者告诉我们,我们认为女权主义sts的“隐喻工作”——寓言、神话、隐喻、比喻和联想话语的工作,以及它们的分析——是我们创造和重塑对女权主义技术文化重要的意义的方法的核心。在这里收集的隐喻作品中,作者提出范式的变化来自于对某些隐喻的集体拒绝,通过对其他隐喻的重新评估,以及引入新的隐喻框架和人物来重新定位我们的工作。

As researchers and editors, we find ourselves oriented to work that takes up the task of contesting uncontested metaphors, considering how metaphor “invades” (Tuck & Yang 2012, 3) and evacuates meaning. This Special Section carries on the dynamic practice in feminist STS of taking the work, and ambivalent potentiality, of metaphor seriously. In this Introduction, we draw together scholarship that informs what we identify as the \"metaphor-work\" of feminist STS—the work of allegory, myth, metaphor, figurative and associative discourse, and their analysis—as central to the methods by which we make and remake meanings that matter to feminist technocultures. Throughout the metaphor-work collected here, the contributors propose that paradigm change comes through the collective refusal of some metaphors, through the re-evaluation of others, and the introduction of new metaphorical frames and figures to reorient our work.\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":316008,"journal":{"name":"Catalyst: Feminism, Theory, Technoscience","volume":"563 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133591653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
