Overview The widespread adoption of platformized gig work has produced major disruptions to labor patterns and mobility. Underpinning transformative technology are workers, who face challenges to well-being in their labor, including a lack of data transparency, social isolation, and inadequate protections. In this talk, I present Gig2Gether, a prototype data-sharing system evaluated within the context of workers' everyday labor to explore the possibilities of fostering solidarity, financial reflection, and policy influence across participants of different platforms. I discuss the results of a 7-day field study with 16 active workers spanning three work domains, which reveal existing and envisioned affordances of cross-platform data-sharing for collectivism and policy impact. Workers leveraged shared data to provide mutual support, improve financial planning, and envision new forms of collectivism and policy advocacy around issues like safety and pay. These findings highlight both the potential and the challenges of data-sharing for the gig work ecosystem. We discuss how data-sharing tools can complement existing structures to enhance worker empowerment and drive meaningful policy change. About the speaker Jane is a final year software engineering PhD at Carnegie Mellon. Her research seeks to empower and collectivize platform-based laborers by bridging information asymmetries and gaps between worker communities. Specifically, she works with large-scale data and multiple stakeholder groups to (1) draw insights and design interventions to improve the gig work condition and (2) subsequently leverage such design guidelines to build systems that digitally support platform-based laborers in their work. She also engages with regulators and policy experts to inform relevant policymaking. Information Source: BostonCHI | eventbrite

Boston has long been celebrated as a hub of musical excellence, home to the world-renowned Boston Symphony Orchestra and countless talented musicians who enrich the city’s vibrant cultural fabric. Yet, despite this rich tradition, Boston has never hosted an exhibition dedicated to showcasing the artistry of contemporary violin and bow makers—until now. The New England Festival of Violin and Bow Makers was established to fill this gap, providing a unique platform for fine instrument makers to present their work in one of the most culturally and musically significant cities in the United States. Taking place at the North Bennet Street School in Boston’s historic North End, this inaugural event brings together celebrated makers, rare instruments, and local professional musicians for three days of music, craftsmanship, and inspiration. Our mission is to honor the artistry of contemporary violin and bow makers while fostering connections between makers, musicians, collectors, and enthusiasts. Through exhibitions, live showcase performances, and the opportunity to engage directly with makers, the festival highlights the extraordinary talent and innovation driving the future of string instrument craftsmanship. Whether you’re a professional musician, a collector, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of fine instruments, the New England Festival of Violin and Bow Makers promises to be an inspiring and unforgettable experience.
