About this event
Join us for a conversation between local author Jer Thorp & tech entrepreneur Anil Dash about Thorp's book, Living in Data: A Citizen's Guide to a Better Information Future, newly released in paperback.
To live in data is to be incessantly extracted from; to be classified & categorized, statisti-fied, sold & surveilled. Data (our data) is mined & processed for profit, power & political gain. Our clicks & likes & footsteps feed new digital methods of control. In Living in Data, Thorp asks a crucial question of our time: how do we stop passively inhabiting data, & become active citizens of it?
