Video Games as Minor Jurisprudence
Collaborative Game Design and Legal Pluralism in Australia
Julian’s PhD project explores how video games can help foster productive sites of encounter for understanding legal pluralism in Australia. Focussing on collaborative video game design as a creative method, the project evaluates how video games and intereractive digital media can help us teach, learn and imagine decolonised law.
Algorithmic GreenwashingGreen Claims in the Australian Ad Observatory
As part of the ADM+S led project, the Australian Ad Observatory, our research demonstrates how consumers experience evironmental and green advertising on their social media feeds. Our research suggests that the consumer experience is awash with vague, unsubstantiated and potentially misleading environmental claims.
Further, it suggests that the flows of ads that consumers are served act to tune consumers’ experience towards various narratives of green identities. Preliminary finding suggests a need to attend to a new form of ‘algorithmic’ greenwashing - where the algorithmic model of advertising ‘tunes’ green vibes in both ads that make explicit green claims and those that do not.
