Dear Readers,

WIAS will soon be hosting the 6th ICTs & Society Conference: Digital
Objects, Digital Subjects. The conference is an interdisciplinary symposium
on activism, research and critique in the age of big data capitalism.
tripleC supports and helps organising the symposium.

Speakers include Antonio Negri, Jodi Dean, Jack Qiu and other leading
scholars and theorists that will undoubtedly appeal to tripleC readers
engaging with communication, capitalism and critique in their work.

The full programme is available here:

registration form. There is no registration fee.

The conference will engage with the possibilities, potentials, pitfalls,
limits, and ideologies of digital activism. It will reflect on whether
computational social science, the digital humanities and ubiquitous
datafication enable new research approaches or result in a digital
positivism that threatens the independence of critical research and brings
about the death of the social sciences and humanities. Presenters will
explore the futures, places and possibilities of critique in the age of
digital subjects and digital objects.

Jodi Dean
