Digital Lives & Futures

What are we getting from the internet, and what do we give it in return? In this colloquium we’ll explore the impact of digital media in our lives and society. Through experiential learning, creative work, reading and discussion, students will develop a deeper understanding of our dynamic media environment. Ultimately, we’ll consider possibilities for engaging, reshaping, and resisting digital technologies in order to build the futures we want.
