Two presentations at Metric Culture: the quantified self and beyond

From June 7-9, we are attending the Metric Culture conference here in Aarhus. The conference features great scholars such as Deborah Lupton and Rosalind Gill. Yesterday, on June 8, our Center for Surveillance Studies did two presentations. The presentations were drawn from the subjects in CHiP: Negotiating family tracking (Maja, Anders and Ask) and surveillance in schools (Ask, Lars, Peter and Anders). Following our presentations, William Staples, who is visiting us this month did an excellent presentation on the new gradebooks in a Kansas school and the quantification of students.
