Moderator: David Banks \n \n In the web's ea rly days\, commentators often predicted a radical decentralization of work and play. Video chat and email\, the thinking went\, would render offices \, cities\, and commuting moot. But cities are more desirable than ever as urban life becomes more predictable\, less gritty\, and more individualis tically oriented. Fueling this transformation is the convergence of the ci ty and the smartphone. Mapping\, ride hailing\, and image-sharing apps are among the many recent innovation that simultaneously require cities' uniq ue characteristics of density\, scale\, and diversity to function\, but al so impose a sort of orderliness and control that was once only found in po st-war suburbs. This panel will explore the homogenizing\, commodifying\, and revitalizing forces that digital networks bring to bear on our built e nvironments. \n \n \n Keynote Panel 2: Where Truth Lies (7:30 p.m.–9:00 p. m.) \n \n Panelists: Tara Isabella Burton\, Alexa O’Brien\, Aaron Cantú\, Jay Rosen. Moderator: Natasha Lennard \n \n Fake news and post-truth\, alt ernative facts and filter bubbles: our moment’s politics are both too chao tic and too predictably on the nose. On Brexit and Trump\, journalists and experts had their expectations refined down to a decimal point\, but thei r odds-making produced more confusion than certainty. Meanwhile\, the lack of a basis for shared knowledge has allowed hoaxes and propaganda to prol iferate. We are fresh off a campaign that was run\, covered\, and won like a reality show. What of this chaos epistemology\, a tactical approach tha t has long been part of web culture but is now installed in the seat of po wer? Do we want to strengthen knowledge-producing institutions? Build new ones? What does it mean to produce and consume news information when the v ery shape of the world is contested\, and any fact feels impossible? We wi ll grapple with these topics on this panel\, with a special focus on the r ole of social media. \n \n \n Party (9:00 p.m.–10:30 p.m.) \n \n Drinks\, pizza\, and music \n \n \n\n\n Tickets: Registration is pay-what-you-wish and includes access to both days.
