We're on with Morgane Billuart, a writer and artist and a researcher whose work engages critically with technologically mediated and determined worlds — not least within her exceptional book “Cycles, the Sacred and the Doomed: Inquiries in Female Health Technologies.” Morgane joins us to talk about a large, recent research project on a particular character that many of us identifies with, what Geert Lovink calls the “critical internet researcher” — a figure who engages in a kind of postdisciplinary media theory while at the same time producing and publishing their work through the very media they are studying, the Online. We strongly recommend:Morgane's podcasts Becoming the Product and Girl Employee with Carmen HinesMorgane's substack Becoming the ProductMorgane's book Cycles, the Sacred and the Doomed: Inquiries in Female Health Technologies on Set MarginsIn the episode we discuss the work of Geert Lovink and the Institute of Network Cultures and Joshua Citarella (and the associated entity Do Not Research), and we briefly touch on Yancy Strickler (and the associated MetaLabel), Trust, the New Center for Research and Practice, Are.na, New Models, and RADAR (https://www.radardao.xyz/). All are mentioned in the context of being institutions undertaking the extremely admirable charge of iterating upon new vehicles and structures for the exchange of information. Marek also briefly mentions the blogger RM (@NilsEdison) and the artist Maria Tsylke.

Neste episódio, recebo Leonardo Foletto para uma conversa a respeito do livro Extinção da internet, de Geert Lovink, lançado no Brasil pela editora Funilaria em parceria com o BaixaCultura. “Será que uma outra internet — uma mais próxima à que acreditávamos nos anos 2000, descentralizada, menos vigilante, mais das pessoas do que de empresas e robôs — ainda é possível?”, pergunta Leonardo no prefácio do livro, antecipando a pergunta que Lovink tenta responder.

In this episode I spoke to Geert Lovink, a Dutch media theorist and founder of the Institute of Network Cultures who has been engaged with internet culture since at least the 80s. We were recently together in Cyprus for the latest installment of MoneyLab,  which he also co-founded. Talking with him was a great way to gain more understanding and context of venture capital's control of the internet and the influence of that on social movements and alternative economies. During the interview we discussed his experience and history of the growth of the internet, the rise of crypto, and tactical media as a strategy for the left. One of the things that we noted was that the question of how the left needs to build its own autonomous infrastructure was one already being explored in the 90s by activists.If you liked the podcast be sure to give it a review on your preferred podcast platform.

Extinction Internet is not merely an end-of-the-world phantasy of digital technology that one day will be wiped out by an electromagnetic pulse or the cutting of cables. Rather, Extinction Internet marks the end of an era of possibilities and speculations, when adaptation is no longer an option. During the internet's Lost Decade, we've been rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic under the inspirational guidance of the consultancy class. What's to be done to uphold the inevitable? We need tools that decolonize, redistribute value, conspire and organize. Join the platform exodus. It's time for a strike on optimization. There is beauty in the breakdown. Extinction Internet is Geert Lovink's inaugural lecture, held on November 18, 2022 as Professor of Art and Network Cultures, within Modern and Contemporary Art History, Faculty of Humanities, University of Amsterdam.

For this episode, we consider hardtruth #53; “tame and disarm dangerous algorithms.” It was written by Geert Lovink, a media theorist from the Institute of Network Cultures in the Netherlands. He reads his writing for my online primer on digital media literacy where he refers to the work of mathematician Cathy O'Neill and a series of questions about the viability of media literacy and fake news being raised at that time. Then, we hear from Professor Jacqueline Wernimont, Distinguished Chair of Digital Humanities and Social Engagement & Associate Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Dartmouth College. At a Fake News Poetry Workshop in 2018 she fed a bot some words of decency. Programmed to help us better understand the algorthmic stupidity of AI by project collaborator, Dr. Kyle Booten, the words of Buddhist monk and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh; Joy Harjo, the first Native American national poet laureate; and the feminist digital pedagogy collective, FemTechNet allowed for poetry from which we have all learned:Voice is perfectRESOLVE is now conflict, (and)Disappearance is peace.Jacque speaks about how this poem helps her to understand the archive more ethically in these very dark times; Geert ends the episode on an upbeat (dark) note, by setting the poem to music!.........................Join us as we work together to learn about, and thereby alter, the connections between fake news, artificial intelligence, and the stupid but powerful algorithms that underwrite the digital ecosphere.Read or respond to a poem or hardtruth found at the online primer of digital media literacy, #100hardtruths-#fakenews or fakenews-poetry.org.Organize your own Fake News Poetry Workshop.Reach out with questions or content @ 100hardtruths@gmail.com.Twitter: @100HardTruthsInstagram: @100HardTruthsYouTube: 100 Hard Truths See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Playing for Team Human today: media activist and scholar Geert Lovink. Geert will be helping us see how an understanding of the political economy is not enough. We have to reacquaint ourselves with the experiential layer of our humanity and even reclaim our sadness to counter the stultifying effects of platform capitalism. Today, when our sources of information are intimately intertwined with our social lives, it’s not as simple as just “going offline.” How can we overcome the anti-human agendas embedded in our technology? Today’s show reaches back to the origins of what became known as “tactical media” — using interactive media to promote the human agenda. Geert makes the case for reawakening this sensibility. You can learn more about Geert at networkedcultures.org and discover his forthcoming book Sad By Design: On Platform Nihilism.Team Human the manifesto is hot off the press! Order yours here.

Erin B. Taylor is an economic anthropologist with experience both in the applied financial sector and in the academic sector. She holds a PhD in Socio Cultural Anthropology from Sydney University and was a postdoctoral researcher on financial mobility at the University of Lisbon. She is the co-founder of Canela Consulting, an ethnography-driven research and consulting group focused on finance and technology. Currently, she works as a senior researcher for Holland Fin-tech where she researches the changing fin-tech landscape, including insur-tech, identity & security, payments, regulations, and financial inclusion. In today's episode we talk to Erin about her experience of applying anthropology to research the financial technology sector (like mobile payments), both in Haiti and The Netherlands. We also explore what is money, what types of relationships people build with it and its financial service providers, and how fin-tech fits into that. We explore the ethics and methods of asking people about their relationship to money (quick tip - ask for stories and not data). Lastly, we talk about the relationship between regulation and design, and the spaces of convergence between ethnographic and design research in the business sector.

Vanmorgen spraken Marie Beth en Misha bij Radio Swammerdam met Geert Lovink over de Digitale Stad en met Ariën Vijn over AMS-IX, het internetknooppunt van Amsterdam. Dit datacentrum in de Watergraafsmeer is een van de meest belangrijke dataknooppunten van Europa. Arien Vijn werkt bij de HvA en het datacentrum en legde ons uit over de Amsterdam Data Tower en de infrastructuur van het internet. Over het datacentrum bij Science Park maakte Mirjam en Marie-Beth onze eerste Swammerreportage waarbij ze zich tussen de zoemende computers en kabelkluwen begaven. Met Geert Lovink tenslotte spraken we over de ontstaansgeschiedenis van het internet en de Digitale Stad. Daarbij kwam ook de publieke functie en de privatisering van het internet ter sprake. Presentatie: Marie Beth van Egmond en Misha Melita Reportage: Mirjam van Zuidam Techniek: Froukje Waterbolk en Luuc Brans

In de aflevering over Liveness en Realtime kwamen we er al achter dat het internet steeds meer gekanaliseerd wordt. Hoe wordt er geld aan ons gedrag verdiend en zijn er mogelijkheden om hier onderuit te komen? Hier gaan we dieper op in met Frederik Zuiderveen Borgesius, juridisch onderzoeker aan het instituut van informatierecht aan de UvA en Geert Lovink, onderzoeker aan het institute for network cultures aan de HvA.

Proteste werden kürzer und heftiger, auch die Argumente werden extremer. Diese Beschleunigung von Protest bezeichnet Geert Lovink als sehr wichtig. Daraus folgt jedoch eine Form von „Mikro-Aktivismus“, den er als zweischneidig bezeichnet. Lovink glaubt, dass politischer Protest im Internet kaum in der Lage ist, neue und komplexe Themen über lange Zeit zu bearbeiten.
