ACMI Stories & Ideas

Impact Keynote Gender Tech Resistance AIDC 2017

22 Mar 2017

Description

The world is entering a new era with hacking, targeted use of social media and ‘fake news’ challenging our ideas of the role of media in a democracy, and many hard fought social justice gains coming under attack. In this context the role and responsibilities of media makers and technologists becomes critically important - particularly in challenging the emboldening of sexist and racist ideas. How as makers do we avoid perpetuating these divisive narratives by the way we build our projects or use platforms? How do we step up, build trust and ensure our process and our content encourages human connection and genuinely harnesses the potential of media impact for good? In this AIDC Impact strand keynote, filmmaker, technologist and creator of the Circle of 6 mobile app, Nancy Schwartzman will showcase creative approaches she has developed to challenge notions of neutrality in technology, and to use the power of story for good.
