Postocs working on cultural heritage and digital culture, ahoy!

Excited to see our report "Webcam work: Policies, practices and platforms" spread its wings and find a life of its own! Hopefully, it will be a fruitful one. Read it at plexxxi.org/report, spread the word, and reach out to me, @hannems.bsky.social or @bexxxie.bsky.social with any feedback.

Such a rich collection: includes my bit on the in/conveniences of porn in platform ecologies.
