Wired reality: Living in a networked world - inaugural lecture from Professor Gillian Youngs

6.30pm Wednesday 15 May 2013
Sallis Benney Theatre, University of Brighton, 58-67 Grand Parade, Brighton BN2 0JP

In her inaugural lecture, Professor Gillian Youngs explores how we are transforming the social fabric of our world and our relationship to space and time through the mobile internet and its varied interfaces.

She examines the new layers of digital experience and identity we are developing and how these contribute to reshaping our senses of the world around us, our relationships and perspectives.

She argues that we are entering a new sociotechnical reality that is only just beginning to reveal itself and the implications of which we have yet to fully understand.
