#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
Our online events can be watched through your BWF ticketing account, and will be available for viewing from 5pm, Friday May 7 to 5pm, Friday June 4.
Every moment of our lives is tracked and monitored, while our most private selves are collected, collated, and sold. How much do we understand of the political, social and philosophical implications of the algorithm? What can be done to avoid a dystopian future?
