Third Place Books is thrilled to welcome Dr. Oliver L. Haimson to our Seward Park store! Dr. Haimson will be discussing his new book Trans Technologies, which describes what happens when trans people take technology design into their own hands. Haimson, whose research into gender transition and technology has defined this area of study, draws on transgender studies and his own in-depth interviews with more than 100 creators of technology—including apps, games, health resources, extended reality systems, and supplies designed to address challenges trans people face—to explain what trans technology is and to explore its present possibilities and limitations, as well as its future prospects. He will be joined in conversation by Sasha Winter. This event is free and open to the public. For important updates, RSVP is highly recommended in advance. This event will include a public signing and time for audience Q&A. Sustain our author series by purchasing a copy of the featured book! Having trouble registering?

About Trans Technologies . . .Mainstream technologies often exclude or marginalize transgender users. Trans Technologies describes what happens when trans people take technology design into their own hands. Oliver L. Haimson, whose research into gender transition and technology has defined this area of study, draws on transgender studies and his own in-depth interviews with more than 100 creators of technology—including apps, games, health resources, extended reality systems, and supplies designed to address challenges trans people face—to explain what trans technology is and to explore its present possibilities and limitations, as well as its future prospects.
Haimson surveys the landscape of trans technologies to reveal the design processes that brought these technologies to life, and to show how trans people often must rely on community, technology, and the combination of the two to meet their basic needs and challenges. His work not only identifies the role of trans technology in caring for individuals within the trans community but also shows how trans technology creation empowers some trans people to create their own tools for navigating the world. Articulating which trans needs and challenges are currently being addressed by technology and which still need to be addressed; describing how trans technology creators are accomplishing this work; examining how privilege, race, and access to resources impact which trans technologies are built and who may be left out; and highlighting new areas of innovation to be explored, Trans Technologies opens the way to meaningful social change. Dr. Oliver Haimsonis an Assistant Professor at University of Michigan School of Information and author of Trans Technologies (MIT Press, 2025). He conducts social computing research focused on envisioning and designing trans technologies.

Erinnert mich an San Francisco; das beste Teil war die Busker zu sehen! Ich traf eine Frau, die die Trommeln f&uuml;r Dr. Motley Cr&uuml; gut gespielt hat und war wunderbar! Ich hatte Ostersch&uuml;tzen mit 4 der Meeresfr&uuml;chte M&ouml;nche, w&auml;hrend ich leckere Rauch Salmon kaufen. Wandern Sie nach unten, ich reiste in einen Ort, der warme Schokolade Chip-K&uuml;chen mit flachem Meeressalz auf dem Top verkauft. lecker! Schlie&szlig;lich gab es einen t&uuml;rkischen Laufgesch&auml;ft und die Frau gab mir hervorragende Beratung &uuml;ber Geschenke und hatte die beste Baklava, die ich je gegessen habe.
