Speaking in March
In the next two weeks I will be speaking at three conferences, two in Lausanne (both in French) and one in Torino.
• Opportunités, risques et limites des réseaux sociaux en ligne dans le Web 2.0
Wednesday 5 March, 19-21h
Hotel Alpha-Palmiers, rue du petit chêne, Lausanne
Registration: free but mandatory on alumnis.mbahec@bluewin.ch
Panelists:
Sandrine Szabo (Swiss Web2.0), Marc Goehring (Electron libre), myself, and Michel Jaccard (BCCC), moderated by Jean-Olivier Pain.
• Le web, source d’information fiable ou outil de désinformation?
Wednesday 12 March, 18h
University of Lausanne, Amphimax, auditoire Erna Hamburger.
I will talk about the internet’s impact on democracy, censorship and free discussion with Olivier Glassey and Stephane Koch. Check the the lovely and not exaggerated at all illustration that comes with the event’s flyers :)
• Share Festival Pecha Kucha night
Friday 14 March, 16h
Salone d’Onore, Castello del Valentino, Viale Matteoli 39 in Torino
I will assist Share’s guest curator - a certain Bruce Sterling - during the Share Festival Pecha Kucha night. I don’t really know what to expect but it sure will be a lot of fun to attend and be around Bruce and Jasmina. Pecha-Kucha Night is a meeting where architects, artists, interior designers, art editors, video artists, fashion designers, photographers, free-lance journalists, students and anyone making part of the creative industry present a work, a project an idea in public. The peculiarity of Pecha Kucha is the way the participants will be presented: “20×20 format”. 12-14 participants will be presented every night and everyone will show 20 images, 20 seconds per each image, for about 7 minutes in total.
