  The Multidisciplinary Grid 2020 Conference

  The conference is aimed at examining the ‘grid’ as a cross-disciplinary theme with a multiplicity of expressions in terms of definitions, concepts, perceptions, representations, and histories. The ‘grid’ has played a significant role in shaping the spatial imaginaries of a wide range of fields: from Hippodamus of Miletus to the Cartesian revolution in mathematics, from the visual arts to archaeology to 'smart cities' and artificial intelligence. As the 'grid' has become an all-encompassing term, signifying a vast array of infrastructural and communication networks through which contemporary life is mediated and controlled, it is commonly viewed as a quintessential symbol of modernity. The conference strives to explore a new horizon of relationships and fusion of the ‘grids’ in these areas as manifested between humans, between machines, and between humans and machines ‒ bridging philosophical, cultural, pedagogical, technical and ethical issues.

  Distributed metrologies, open data and data literacy

  The techno-political and socio-cognitive processing of "citizen" data

  Ce numéro des Cahiers du Numérique vise à interroger les agencements de données impliquant des dispositifs de métrologies dites « citoyennes », envisagés plus globalement ici, comme des configurations techno-politiques de production et de traitement de données, caractérisées par des formes de participation polycentrique, plus ou moins institutionnalisées, et s’appuyant sur des infrastructures de publication et de traitement des données, sur des actants sensitifs et des protocoles, sur des sémiotiques et interfaces multiples (allant du capteur le plus simple aux sémiotisations les plus élaborées).
