PHuN Symposium 2020:
Envisioning Learning and Trust
February 20-22, 2020
Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona
In an age of technological growth, globalization, and neoliberalism, the ways we build trust are being dramatically transformed. Simultaneously, funding for education has become subject to market- and data-driven directives, neglecting the needs of vulnerable communities and ecologies. How do we learn to trust and trust in learning when our communities and connections are increasingly distant, ephemeral, and mediated? How do we avoid falling to game-theoretically governed social, economic, and informatic relations? What aspects of trust are under-considered in efforts for learning and change? Where are the flows of trust in above/below-ground networks (institutions, organizations, grassroots movements, communities of practice, etc.)? What’s left to learn, if anything, from posthumanism? Is trust even a useful conceptualization of relations anymore?
PHuN (post-human network) invites submissions and proposals for papers, demos, workshops, media, artistic and practice-driven works to their 4th annual meeting. Please send submissions to this form by December 13 extended: December 20th (form also accessible via post-human.net). Topics could include but are not limited to:
