Instead, it is either concerned with data visualization, often without questioning its positivist ontology, or with ‘seamless’ non-interfaces which effectively seek to remove choice. Against this backdrop, our proposal brings together design theory and design practice to inter- rogate current modes of algorithmic prediction and the construction of subjectivity enabled by ‘choice design’. Our designed artifacts are diagrams to think through practice about the shape(s) of the possible. Rather than designing predictable futures, we aim to use diagram-making to expose and reframe choice design. These design artifacts - initial and ongoing experiments in mapping YouTube recommendations - are a series of computational diagrams that weave together the tools of computational prediction, critical design practice, and theory.

A project is defined as a specific art presentation, exhibit or creation of work that demonstrates characteristics that have clear benefit and is accessible to the constituency for which it is intended. A project possesses artistic quality, imaginative scope and vision, and is fully executed within a specified timeline. Feryal Abbasi-Ghnaim* From the Diaspora: Identity, Feminism, and Symbolism of Traditional Palestinian Designs Artistic Focus Folk Arts $2,633 My project idea is to document the endangered oral history of Palestinian folk, fabric and fiber arts into a downloadable ebook. I have selected 15 tapestries and embroidery pieces from my large collection to feature. Traditionally, the history of each design is shared between grandmother, mother and daughter through storytelling. The story is documented through the design itself -- a coded language used by women over centuries -- which is decoded through dialogues between women. In the same tradition, I'll work with my daughter, Wafa Ghnaim, to translate and transcribe the stories I learned from my mother and grandmother. At the end of the grant year, we will conduct a book reading and lecture at the Ledding Library of Milwaukie for the launch of the eBook. Wafa will donate her time to translate and transcribe the book.
