Abstract

This paper reports on a roundtable discussion that reflected upon the analytically productive moments of working with the concept of “algorithmic regimes” when studying the methodological, epistemological and political implications of the rise of algorithms in and for knowledge production, sense making and decision-making in contemporary societies. Focusing on knowledge and knowing, the concept of “algorithmic regimes” draws our attention beyond the mere technical nature of algorithms by acknowledging the complex and partly ambiguous entanglements of algorithmic systems as material-semiotic apparatuses with social, political, cultural and economic elements of society. Examples from our own research demonstrate the versatility of the concept of “algorithmic regimes” for studying (1) the methods to research and design (better) algorithmic systems, (2) the ways interactions become re-configured within algorithmic regimes and (3) the politics ingrained in algorithmic regimes. Analysing algorithmic regimes can then provide understanding for shaping desirable sociotechnical futures.
