New special issue: Environmental materialities of digital tech

Hi there! I am glad to share a new special issue about the environmental and material implications of digital technologies. Among different articles in French, there is two ethnographies in English that are worth reading: Cyrus Khalatbari, « Struggles and Resilience in GPU miniaturisation. From Taipei’s Overclockers to Accra’s Urban Miners <https://journals.openedition.org/reset/6133> », RESET, 2025. Hugo Estecahandy, « Computing Bitcoin on Soviet Legacies. Material Geopolitics of Cryptocurrency Mining in Global East <https://journals.openedition.org/reset/5951>», RESET, 2025. The whole issue can be found here: https://journals.openedition.org/reset/5909 The translation of the introduction in English will come in September. We regret the absence of female contributors in this issue, which does not reflect the proposals initially submitted to the journal, nor the richness of female contributions on the topic. This omission raises the question of how to evaluate articles while reconciling parity, double-blind evaluation procedures and suitability for the objectives of a special issue.
