Data-relationships and digital surveillance

My PhD. I ran collaborative workshops where people used open-source stats on digital footprints, hoping they’d get a feel for what data-driven organisations actually do with their data. Teaching the methods bored most people. Showing wrestling tag-team graphs to wrestling fans worked better. University of Bolton, 2021.

Exploring Wrestling Stables

I pulled wrestling stables out of Wikipedia via DBpedia, mapped who had been teammates, and posted the giant graphs on Reddit. Wrestling fans spotted missing Ric Flair, argued about stables versus factions, and the messy Wikipedia data turned out to be the interesting bit.
