This is a masterclass by Prof. Aris Komporozos-Athanasiou (UCL, London) on the topic of speculative technologies in the age of financialization. Prof. Aris Komporozos-Athanasiou is director of the Centre for Capitalism Studies (UCL, London) and author of Speculative Communities (2022).

In this masterclass, he will examine the relation between digital technologies and the financialization of life. The masterclass will explore how different social media platforms expose their users to the same speculative logic of financial capitalism, and how this is transforming the ways in which we should imagine new forms of critique and resistance.  

ReMa students and PhD candidates affiliated to NICA and RMEs can apply for credits.
