Neda Atanasoski and co-editor Nassim Parvin talk new book Technocreep on The Good Robot Podcast

WGSS Chair, Dr. Neda Atanasoski, and Dr. Nassim Parvin of the University of Washington appeared on this week's episode of The Good Robot Podcast to talk to hosts Drs. Kerry McInerney and Eleanor Drage about their newest co-edited volume Technocreep and the Politics of Things Not Seen. Creepiness, according to Atanasoski and Parvin, is often associated with surveillance with increased privacy sold as the solution to this increasingly creepy tech. Technocreep and the Politics of Things Not Seen explores how feminists are reclaiming the idea of creep and highlighting the way that race and gender shape who has the right to privacy. 

You can listen to the new episode titled "Rethinking 'Creepy' Technology with Nassim Parvin and Neda Atanasoski" on The Good Robot Podcast's website, Youtube, or wherever else you like to listen to podcasts.
