A glass behind the screen
Un verre derrière l’écran is a digital culture seminar aiming to investigate, from a social and human sciences point of view, the new technologies' issues in contemporary society and culture. It is an opportunity to debate on digital-oriented theories, methods and practices. The purpose is to critically exchange and discuss on these themes in order to let the public opinion be more aware of the digital culture.
These meetings want themselves to be a bridge between human sciences and digital players. The meetings are free and open to everybody and they gather together academics coming form professional and media domains. Every session is live broadcasted. Un verre derrière l'écran is as well present on Facebook and Twitter.
