transmediale 2017 ever elusive, Excursion: Interventions

Extensions of the transmediale - festival for art and digital culture
berlin program continue throughout the month of February with three
thematic excursions in Berlin.

The excursion "Interventions" focuses on new approaches to immanent
critique, opposition, and collective organization in relation to the
crisis of data-driven politics and digital populism. It examines the
possibilities and constraints of critical empowerment when political
parties, security agencies, and platform companies embrace disruptive
practices and subversive strategies. What happens when we reach a point
of failure in emancipatory politics? How can we create new territories
for reflection and resistance? Through workshops, panels, and
performative events participants elaborate on emerging alternatives
involving the alien and machinic, and the historical and unregistered,
promoting the escape from common narratives and a move toward new
engaging practices and forms of organization.

Please register via Eventbrite: http://bit.ly/2kswLUC
The admission is free.

The excursion takes place at the headquarters of ver.di, one of the
largest independent trade unions in the world. The union was founded in
2001 and draws members from over 1,000 occupations. With its diversity
and size, ver.di offers support by putting pressure on the state to
achieve acknowledgment, solidarity, and justice for issues affecting
contemporary working life. For more than four years, ver.di has worked
as one of the only trade unions in the world to organize Amazon workers
calling for fairer pay and working conditions.
