Kasturi Ray, Ph.D Associate Professor Evren Savci, Ph.D Assistant Professor “DON’T BE EVIL”: GOOGLE’S LABOR, TECHNOLOGY, AND THE LIMITS OF CORPORATE GOOD Alison Agnes Veith San Francisco, California 2015 Google’s “Don’t Be Evil” motto and its public image as corporate do-gooder are examined through a material and cultural analysis of its internal labor hierarchies and its technological products. By focusing on Google’s hidden contracted reproductive service laborers, as well as the premises and consequences of disruptive, digital technology, this project reveals how the realities of necessary but undesirable work are obscured and contested. This dual focus allows for a revaluation of intimate labors in two ways. First, it reveals that Google’s sustained capital accumulation relies on its reproductive intimate labor. Second, it recognizes that Google’s corporate practices of invisibilizing intimate labor and mediating social intimacies are importantly reflective of the larger social, economic, and cultural trends in our emerging knowledge-based/service-based economy.

  • Vinson Valega Biography Vinson Grew up in a Musical Family Near
    Vinson Valega biography Vinson grew up in a musical family near Washington, D.C., studying classical piano from age seven until switching to the drums when he was 12. He played drums for three years in the All- County Jazz Ensemble during high school and subsequently held the drum chair in the University of Pennsylvania Big Band during college. After graduating from UPENN with a B.A. in Economics, Vinson came to New York City in the early 90's to study music at the Mannes College of Music in Manhattan, where he studied with Marvin "Smitty" Smith (of The Tonight Show Band), Vernel Fournier, and Norm Freeman (of the New York Philharmonic).
