Searching for My Father's House: Gaze-Scaling the Philippines and Mars Across the (Digital) Diaspora

How do new computational visions of universalized planetary environments shape life across the Philippine diaspora? I take up this question through my own experience of what I term "gaze-scaling in the digital diaspora," a computational practice which I situate within the history of the development of network computing and the production of networked planetary environments, arguing that gaze-scaling produces new modes of the scientific subject, both the universalized unmarked observer, and the diasporic subjectivity it disavows.
