Kevin Guyan
“Hacking described his research interest ‘in classifications of people, in how they affect the people classified, and how the affects on the people in turn change the classifications.’ Hacking labeled the subjects of these studies ‘moving targets’ because researchers’ investigatory efforts change them in ways so ‘they are not quite the same kind of people as before.”
― Kevin Guyan, Queer Data: Using Gender, Sex and Sexuality Data for Action

“Data is a form of capital. And as is the case with all capital - it has to be efficient utilized.”
― Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr, CEO of Mayflower-Plymouth
