What is Digital Change?

Next week we will host a screening of Catfish, a documentary-style film exploring human relationships within the digital medium of social network Facebook.

We aim to provide a springboard for informal interdisciplinary discussion exploring the technological, social and artistic implications of rapid change within the contemporary digital landscape.

During the event we will also provide a brief introduction to our own research agenda, and information on how you might be able to get involved.

Join us from 5:30pm on Thursday, 23rd July in the PG Hub for this free event!

There is also a Facebook event page.

Key Themes

Themes of "authenticity", "authority" and "objectivity" pervaded the discussion of digital change in our June meeting. These themes emerged in the context of a small portfolio of articles, drawn from our respective disciplines. We used them as the basis for our August meeting, in which we began to draw up a research agenda.
