Creating communities of care in the digital world
Data Fluencies offers a model for enacting theories of data justice, methods of community engagement, and practical approaches to disrupting institutions and infrastructures that have diminished the capacities of everyday digital technology users. Combining humanities-based critical thinking, computational data analyses, arts-based research cocreation, and media making, data fluencies offer creative and imaginative approaches to investigating and countering algorithmic discrimination, digital surveillance, mis- and disinformation, and deep fake versions of reality.
Not fixed or static, data fluencies move with, through, and against data streams to build the worlds we want, not the ones algorithms push on us. Presenting real-world examples, the authors demonstrate how data fluencies transcend difference and counter the proliferation of hate and toxicity online. As they outline visions for disrupting the past to reimagine the future, the authors guide the way in devising new ways to think, act, and imagine – to influence and reshape the currents that flow through our data-driven world.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
