Description
Join us for an event which seeks to explore what it means to be human, or simply alive, in a world in which the digitally processed virtual is increasingly experienced in the actualities of everyday life.
Curated and hosted by digital geographies PhD students Mike Duggan and Pip Thornton, and featuring Alex Garland’s sci-fi thriller EX MACHINA (2015), the event aims to question binary definitions of virtual/real, nature/culture and human/non-human, engaging with critical debatesaround artificial intelligence (AI), law & ethics, gender, techno-capitalism and virtual geographies, while challenging the representations of these subjects in the film and other media.
The event will include short talks and a panel discussion involving Dr. John Danaher, lecturer in Law at the National University of Ireland, Galway and author of the blog Philosophical Disquisitions, Lee MacKinnon, lecturer in the Theory and History of Photography at Arts University Bournemouth, whose book chapter Love’s Algorithm: The perfect parts for my machine, was recently published in Algorithmic Life: Calculative Devices in the Age of Big Data (2015) and Dr. Oli Mould, lecturer in Human Geography at Royal Holloway, University of London, published film critic and author of taCity blog.
Venue
The Book Club, Leonard Street 100-106, EC2A 4RH London
