Digital self-tracking devices and data have become normal elements of everyday life. Imagining Personal Data examines the implications of the rise of body monitoring and digital self-tracking for how we inhabit, experience and imagine our everyday worlds and futures. Through a focus on how it feels to live in environments where data is emergent, present and characterized by a sense of uncertainty, the authors argue for a new interdisciplinary approach to understanding the implications of self-tracking, which attends to its past, present and possible future. Building on social science approaches, the book accounts for the concerns of scholars working in design, philosophy and human-computer interaction. It problematizes the body and senses in relation to data and tracking devices, presents an accessible analytical account of the sensory and affective experiences of self-tracking, and questions the status of big data. In doing so it proposes an agenda for future research and design that puts people at its centre.

This is a very welcome and timely contribution. Rather than evaluating self- tracking as either empowering or not, it goes into a more nuanced, complex and engaging account of the temporalities of self-tracking technologies. How they are entangled with everyday life, how they participate in different human futures, and how they serve as a tool for learning about ourselves as human beings. Highly needed and highly recommendable! - Dorthe Brogrd Kristensen, University of Southern Denmark
