[csaa-forum] Digital Publics symposium: Tuesday 9 February at FedSq Melbourne

[Esther Anatolitis]

DIGITAL PUBLICS SYMPOSIUM
TUESDAY 9 FEBRUARY AT FEDSQ MELBOURNE

What kinds of public spaces are made by creative intervention? What
kinds of public spaces are made without creative intervention? What do
these interventions tell us about public space? Digital Publics brings
together the ideas, the hands and the technologies that redistribute
spatial encounters, redefining the public that they seek to engage.

The symposium explores new approaches to public space focusing on the
layers of connection and cultural experience that are introduced by
media and social technologies.
