Jaisal E. K.
PhD Candidate, Public Policy, at IIT Bombay
Enmeshed in digital spaces, our lives in today’s world are, to varying degrees, defined in ways and terms of algorithms. Intrigued, as a student of politics and policy, I explore computer-mediated discourses, policy considerations, and the digital public sphere vis-à-vis the evolving technological affordances, focusing on the intricacies of the interface between the internet, society, and politics.
