 aheli singh is an Assistant Professor at York University. She was previous
 ly a Research Fellow\, Surveillance\, Society and Technology at the Univer
 sity of Ottawa Centre for Law\, Technology and Society and was previously 
 the eQuality-Scotiabank Postdoctoral Fellow in AI and Surveillance. sava s
 aheli singh received her PhD from New York University’s Educational Commun
 ication and Technology program. Her dissertation\, titled “Academic Twitte
 r: Pushing the Boundaries of Traditional Scholarship”\, addresses how 21st
 -century academics negotiate their professional identities as a complex fo
 rm of emotional\, intellectual\, and academic labor and the ways in which 
 this helps and hinders their academic and personal lives. As an interdisci
 plinary scholar\, her current research interests include educational surve
 illance\; digital labour and surveillance capitalism\; restorative justice
  and abolition\; speculative fiction\; and critically examining the effect
 s of technology and techno-utopianism on society.\n\nAbout the films:\n\n'
 The invasive surveillance apparatus we find embedded in almost all aspects
  of our technologically mediated lives collects and analyzes personal info
 rmation which is then used by organizations to produce various outcomes th
 at are often out of our control. Surveillance is not simply good or bad\, 
 helpful or harmful\, but it is never neutral\, and it is increasingly at t
 he core of larger systems of control. Screening Surveillance is a short fi
 lm series created by sava saheli singh that aims to raise awareness about 
 how large organizations use data and how these practices affect life chanc
 es and choices. We need to consider these implications\, and critically ex
 amine the logics and practices within big data systems that underpin\, ena
 ble\, and accelerate surveillance.' \n\nThis event is part of the 5th Seas

 es Speaker and Workshop Series\, organized by Dr. Alex Ketchum.\n\nOur ser
