Technopolitics@codedcultures: Break On Through!

Tuesday, 27th September, Urania, Mittlerer Saal, 19:00 - 23:00 CET

Technopolitics is a praxis oriented research project initiated by Brian Holmes and Armin Medosch. It is a self-educational project which works out a theoretic framework and vocabulary that makes complex and difficult concepts accessible to cultural producers and activists such as themselves. technopolitics@thenextlayer: http://www.thenextlayer.org/node/1199
