While these practices have many beneficial applications, they also raise relevant questions in terms of security, privacy and civil rights. Therefore, We particularly invite artists to create works that: explore, reflect upon, challenge, praise or criticize such practices; highlight their risks or promises; use massive data collection and visualization to raise awareness for important issues and to promote societal change; exploit and explore large volumes data. if your artwork is related to this theme, indicate its relation to the theme in your submission.
