Post Conference Update
We want to thank everyone that came to the New School and Columbia and took part in a very successful two-day conference. We had a great time, and the discussions and presentations were quite stimulating. In the mean time, we are working on getting the videos from the conference edits and posted, hopefully starting with the final keynote paper by Todd May and the follow-up discussion. After that we will be working on posting the individual panel videos.
Some of us here at the New School are also discussing next steps to keep these ideas floating and the networks established flourishing. If you have any ideas, please be sure to let us know. Until then, stay tuned for more.
