Critical Media Lab Colloquium

Colloquium #6 (Spring 2017)

The research colloquium is a bi-weekly discussion session of IXDM researchers and interested guests. Every other Wednesday morning we meet in the Critical Media Lab to discuss projects, readings, concepts, and other objects of interest. Each session is prepared with an input by members of IXDM or invited guests to facilitate a conversation. Some sessions are supported with readings and other materials beforehand.

The colloquium is a great format if you want to meet and get to know us better. All are always welcome and there is no need to register.
