DESCRIPTION:\n	This episode of Theorizing the Web Presents centers on the m
 isfits and outliers who are disrupting dominant ways of being and doing on
  the internet. In the first segment\, Sonja Solomun and Victoria Simon use
  queer theory to problematize algorithms and algorithmic power. Then\, Jac
 k Webster considers why vinyl records are experiencing a new heyday in an 
 age of ubiquitous music streaming services. And\, finally\, Heather Fenby 
 asks what it means to be older on the Internet\, where accessibility is an
  unglamorous afterthought\, and personalization means incessant reminders 
 of mortality\, decay\, infirmity\, accident\, painful illness\, and utter 
 irrelevance. This episode is moderated by TtW Presents Producer Whitney Er
 in Boesel (@weboesel). \n\n\n	Join the conversation. \n\n\n	Panelist Bios:
