About the Workshop 

What influence do media technologies have on society and its institutions and on our individual actions? How can (semi) - autonomous actors intervene in social media environments and take up a life of their own? Gordan Savicic and Juan Gomez will explore these questions at the workshop at Chronus Art Center.

Participants will gain hands-on knowledge of techniques implemented for the web 2.0 Suicide Machine, using a tool for automated web applications testing. Gordan and Juan will bring you an overview of media hacking practices, and recent web-based network technologies used to program our online experience. You will be introduced into writing simple code for your own projects. This technique could be useful for interventionist tactics and critical hacks within social media. Web-related programming skills desired, but not absolutely necessary!
