.3.2018 to broaden your perspective on humanities, open science and games as culture. We have inspiring keynote presentations on technological utopianism and game culture studies; talks on the digital, critical and games; workshops on open science; a poster slam on digital humanities; and both game companies and university researchers ready to discuss their latest projects with you.
What do algorithms and activism have in common? Technology for a better world? Humanities gaming? Will open science be the future of science or fade away?
Join us on Friday 9.3. for the whole day or just pop in when walking by.
