Daniel will discuss Palabras_ [palabras.ucsc.edu], a set of tools and interfaces intended to facilitate collective self-representation among communities that don't normally have access to media and information technology; Public Secrets [publicsecret.net], an online audio archive of statements by incarcerated women that reveal the secret injustices of the Criminal Justice System; and other works in progress.
