SRM Live S03E89 Surveillance Capitalism (iArts Grad)

This week we will talk about tech surveillance and its potential
consequences for our human experiences. Global mass surveillance
has divided society into the watchers and the watched. How has the
pandemic affected the immense power and profitability of personal
data? Is Big Tech trying to redefine our boundaries? Does the
Google algorithm determine our convictions of what truth is? When
opinion-based news has become part of the entertainment industry,
can we regard conspiracy theories as urban myths and legends?
Listen to the discussion with the Bulgarian sociologist Milena
Stateva and interdisciplinary arts student Elena Miteva (@cant_rn

Project, which will be presented on the 24th of August in
Maastricht. Check the website of iarts2021.com for more info.
