social media collective

The Social Media Collective (SMC) is a network of social science and humanistic researchers, part of the Microsoft Research labs in New England and New York. It includes full-time researchers, postdocs, interns, and visitors. Our primary purpose is to bring a sociotechnical perspective to the critical issues of our time. We use empirical and critical methods to study the social, political, and cultural dynamics that shape technologies and their consequences. https://socialmediacollective.org
