[csaa-forum] Mobiles & Social Media in Southeast Asia & Pacific: 12/13 Nov USYD public event & Workshop

[Gerard Goggin]

Sydney Ideas Panel, Thurs 12 Nov, 6-7.30pm, University of Sydney – all welcome.
Digital technology is at the heart of social, cultural, economic, and political transformations in our neighbouring countries in the Southeast Asia region, and elsewhere in the Asia-Pacific. Used by all levels of society, mobile phones and mobile media can be found everywhere from agriculture and health, through commerce and activism, to family, friendship and romantic relationships. For its part, social media – increasingly used on mobile platforms – is a new force in everyday life, politics, education, civil society, and culture.
In this panel, five leading figures in digital technology research identify and debate the key issues in the digital age in Southeast Asia: Heather Horst (RMIT), Sun Sun Lim (NUS), Rich Ling (Nanyang), Cheryll Ruth Soriano (De La Salle, Manila), Aim Sinpeng (Sydney).
