Publication Investigating Black Box Technologies, Digital Power, and Its Invisibilities(Routledge, 2025-09)Covering and exposing controversial digital technologies, algorithms, artificial intelligence (AI) applications, and their use in crucial areas of society has recently become a beat for journalists around the world. To shed light on how these systems work, newsrooms and reporters have adopted hybrid strategies and practices, crossing the line into hacking and coding to expose the inner and often obscure functions of “black box” technologies. This has resulted in what can be described as a new field of investigative reporting addressing digital power, which has already exposed several cases of data injustice, discrimination, and abuse perpetrated by algorithmic decision-making systems, surveillance, or automation. This chapter explores this phenomenon, discussing some international case studies and highlighting the implications for contemporary newsgathering and beyond - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Publication Regional Personality Differences: On the Interplay between Geography and Personality(2026)This chapter provides an overview of research on regional personality differences and their societal relevance. First, we review studies demonstrating psychological variation across geographic levels (from nations and regions to cities and neighborhoods) showing that, around the world, aggregated personality traits form meaningful spatial patterns. Second, we discuss potential drivers of these differences, distinguishing between selection processes (i.e., individuals selecting into environments) and adaptation processes (i.e., ecological and sociocultural contexts shaping psychological characteristics), and consider the empirical evidence for both of these processes. Third, we examine macro-level consequences of regional personality differences, focusing on political, economic, social, and health outcomes. Fourth, we consider micro-level consequences of regional personality differences, highlighting how regional psychological contexts shape individual behavior and well-being. We conclude by addressing outstanding conceptual and methodological challenges and by emphasizing new opportunities arising from advances in data collection, statistical modeling, and interdisciplinary exchange. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication We Have Never Been Human: Inhuman Art in Pierre Huyghe’s Liminal(2025-11-26)Over the last decades, digital technologies have profoundly reshaped artistic production and reception; the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has further accelerated this shift by enabling systems that can generate images, music, texts, and video that appear coherent, meaningful, and aesthetically compelling. This convergence between art and AI raises pressing questions at the intersection of aesthetics and cognitive science: Can AI genuinely be creative—producing outputs that are not merely plausible but also original and artistically valuable? And how do human beings perceive, evaluate, and emotionally respond to works attributed to non-human agents? This interdisciplinary conference brings together philosophy, aesthetics, art history, psychology, and cognitive neuroscience to examine how AI is reconfiguring creative practices and redefining foundational concepts such as authorship, intention, style, and artistic agency. Contributions will address theoretical models of creativity as applied to generative systems; the ways AI alters the roles of artists, curators, and audiences within hybrid human–machine workflows; and the cultural and ethical implications of machine-generated content within contemporary visual and media ecologies.

Publication The dubious hold-up over NAMA(Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR), 2011)If trade diplomats thought they knew one thing, it was how to cut industrial tariffs. Yet the Doha deadlock rests squarely on the inability to compromise on industrial tariff cuts. This column says that the arguments made for higher levels of ambition don't stand up to much scrutiny and should not be allowed to provide a basis for a continuing impasse. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
