Katrin Fritsch (at)

Katrin Fritsch is a data and society researcher based in London. As a social scientist, she examines the cultural construction of technology — asking how citizens legitimise new forms of power and exploitation because of dominant narratives and metaphors that shape the understanding of technology.

Katrin also is co-founder of the agency Effi Beißt and has consulted netzpolitik.org on strategies for NGO’s and online-journalism to create awareness for digital human rights. She not only analyses current societal issues, but further interrogates how responses in the context of art and culture can generate a new understanding of digital inequalities.
