POST FESTIVAL EVENT
FUTUREPROOF: THE TIME- HACKS AND LIFE-MODS OF CORY
DOCTOROW
SATURDAY 8 MAY, 7.00PM
Cory Doctorow is a science fiction author, activist, journalist and blogger, the co- editor of boingboing.net and author of the bestselling novel LITTLE BROTHER and
FOR THE WIN.
Join him for tales of woe and wonder that will explore the realms of storytelling as techno-social activism; delving into creativity as symbiotic, cross-cultural hacking; breaching the dangers and shelters of reason; examining the copy- wrongs of copy-right; transducing pathways to a post-scarcity world while pondering if truth is truly in sight? Be there and glimpse the future, right now... (OK, it might just be a regular author Q&A about some perhaps unusual themes...)
Takes place at the West Norwood Library
and Nettlefold Hall.
