Future of Democracy and Algorithm-Based Censorship

On the new frontier of internet activism, a group of popular meme pages (the Meme Alliance) will go on strike for three days to protest the "censorship methods of the future".

"This sort of unaccountable, algorithm-based censorship is ineffective and insulting. Ineffective at removing truly objectionable content, and insulting to both content creators and consumers, who have no say in the process."

'Frontiers - You've reached Fortress Europe'

Amazing trailer by Gold Extra

"Frontiers is an online multiplayer game that leads its players to the borders of Europe. It portrays a refugee itinerary from the sub-Sahara region to Europe.

'War Games? The Military-Industrial Complex and the Future of Warfare'

+ discussion with Professor James Der Derian

...

"A critical exploration of the military-industrial complex inspired by the detective work of Walter Benjamin: The experimental documentary Project Z (written and produced by James Der Derian) takes us back to the future, to find the original maps for a new world order after the Cold War. Combining rare footage from inside the war machine with corrosive commentary by leading critics of global violence, injustice, and inequality, Project Z is a dystopian warning that war, video and language games already anticipate the final global event."

HyperNormalised Reality

"HyperNormalisation tells the extraordinary story of how we got to this strange time of great uncertainty and confusion - where those who are supposed to be in power are paralysed - and have no idea what to do. And, where events keep happening that seem inexplicable and out of control - from Donald Trump to Brexit, the War in Syria, the endless migrant crisis, and random bomb attacks. It explains not only why these chaotic events are happening - but al...so why we, and our politicians, cannot understand them."

'Salvation by Algorithm: God, Technology and the New 21st-Century Religions'

"Hi-tech gurus are brewing for us amazing new religions that have little to do with God, and everything to do with technology.

They promise all the old prizes – happiness, peace, justice and eternal life in paradise – but here on Earth with the help of technology, rather than ­after death and with the help of supernatural beings."

"In a note to clients out Tuesday, Bank of America Merrill Lynch said there's a 20%-50% chance that we're living in the matrix — meaning that the world we experience as "real" is actually just a simulation.
