[Disruption Network Lab]

Dear all,

we are happy to invite you to our 9th event “IGNORANCE. The Power of
Non-Knowledge” on September 30 and October 1, 2016.

The second event of the “Art & Evidence” series by Disruption Network
Lab 2016 investigates the political, social and ethical dimensions of
ignorance, manifested as different forms of what has been termed “non-
knowledge”. It will shed light on how, why and when knowledge does not
come to be, disappears or is suppressed, the possible advantages and
disadvantages related to the creation or maintenance of ignorance
and doubt, and how the underlying strategies and dynamics can be
unveiled and unmade.

Invited speakers are Mathias Gross (sociologist and science studies
scholar, DE), Joanna Kempner (Sociologist, US), Jamie Allen (artist and
researcher, CA/CH), Teresa Dillon (researcher, artist and educator,
IE/DE), Karen Douglas (social psychologist, UK), Martin F. Robbins
(researcher and science writer, UK), Hannah Jane Parkinson (digital
culture journalist and writer, UK), Ippolita group (activists and
writers, IT), Vladan Joler (SHARE Foundation director, chair of the New
Media Department, University of Novi Sad, RS), Jan Willem Wieland
(philosopher and researcher, NL).
