CDI TV: Reality engineering after the techlash

- Export as iCalendar
Location: CDI TV or FAB1.16

Join us for a conversation about proliferating efforts to create artificial societies on CDI TV: https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/cdi/tv/

How artificial are the “societies” we live in today? To what extent is the state and tech industry to blame for the embrace of “social engineering”? What does the “techlash” have to do with it? And how is it that despite widespread criticism of Big Tech, we continue to see an increasing intervention of these companies in our everyday realities?

Speakers include Noortje Marres, along with Matías Valderrama Barragán and Greta Timaite. Hosted by Carolina Bandinelli and Michael Dieter.
