My BROWN WALKING-MOVING BODY as [M]ethod in Computing

In this paper, I explore how my Brown, queer, migrant body becomes a method for thinking about software, embodiment, and resistance in computing. By walking with and through locative technologies like Pokémon Go, I reveal how movement, perception, and racialised subjectivity shape the digital landscape. Drawing on phenomenology and anti-racist critique, I position embodied, marginalised experiences not as edge cases, but as essential ways of knowing. This is both a refusal of abstraction and a reclamation of method — I am the method.
