Drawing from feminist contributions in data studies and pedagogy, this article develops the notion of data-caring as an ethico-political intervention. It interrogates the way the ‘digital architecture of neoliberalism’ reduces the complexity of social relations and looks at the absence of conversations and narratives. Against the background of political polarization in Brazil, the article discusses how datafying practices in the digital world enact categories that identify Self and Other without context or complexity. In opposition, data-caring is based on the understanding that the kind of dialogue necessary to live together in polarized times requires conversations that can decompress narrative arcs. As we approach new elections, I detail the experience of teaching an experimental course after the 2018 elections in Brazil and offer insights about what constituted an exploratory study in data-caring, where we explored how we can care about data, care with data and datafy with care.
