About Event
Salon about the philosophy of how technology influences media/culture.
Each session, we will spend 30 minutes reading excerpts and essays, followed by an hour long discussion. Sessions are drop-in friendly.
Topics TBD but some ideas for flavor:
Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man
"The Society of the Spectacle" by Guy Debord
"Simulacra and Simulation" by Jean Baudrillard
"Amusing Ourselves to Death" by Neil Postman
"The Gutenberg Galaxy" by Marshall McLuhan
Mood: lively, bordering on unhinged.
