Abstract

BlackBox.Academy is an educational website which helps people with minimal or greater technological backgrounds learn important topics in technology, ranging from racial bias to disparity caused by algorithms, from surveillance to digital panopticism, to mis- and disinformation, even ontological questions of technology. The goal is to educate a wide variety of people from multiple backgrounds by breaking down concepts without the use of technological jargon and academic speak. This is done with embedded video clips, hyperlinks, and concepts that gradually build on one another. The website format allows for real time changes and up-to-date information. This PDF version is the written part of a more elaborate, complex, and interactive website that can be found at https://blackbox.academy.
