Event overview
The event is supported by Intel’s User Experience Group and studio INCITE, Sociology Department
This event brings together speakers whose work focuses on digital technologies as a way of translating research findings in inventive ways. The presentations address how the ubiquity of digital technologies may transform not only the subject matter of research, but also greatly expand the possibilities of communicating and circulating findings to and with new audiences. The event will look beyond conventional ‘knowledge transfer’ to open up ideas of other forms of transmission and entanglement with bodies, technologies and public spaces.
