SUNDAY 2 JUNE 2019
10.00 - 10.45:
Coffee/ Breakfast [DATA-CAFE]
11.00 - 12.45
Panel #5 - THICK DATA AND INFO-RHETORICS [MUSEUM]
Can ethnographic narratives be persuasive in a datafied world? Does ethnography need to become data ethnography or even morph into meme to survive in - and disrupt - contemporary knowledge economies? At the same might ethnography illuminate the crisis around trust, truth and expert knowledge - ethnography included - in the age of the prod/user?
Moderator: Dimitra Kofti (Panteion University)

Panel #6 - NON-REPRESENTATION AND LOCATIVE MEDIALITIES [MUSEUM]
How are locative media and geosocial networking technologies creating novel modes of social interaction and relationality, whether on social media platforms or ethnographic media walks? How do the resultant non-linear traces of bodies moving and interacting in physical and digital environments challenge the adequacy of representational approaches to space, image and body, suggesting the need for a shift toward a post/neo-phenomenological understanding of performativity, embodiment, encounter and mediatization.

Panel #7 - STORIFY THE CITY [MUSEUM]
How can new media practices and technologies be used to both reveal and intervene in the utopian visions, dystopian realities and hegemonic narratives of the city, making visible and audible vulnerable and marginalized bodies? How can critical cultural production, productively blurring art and ethnography, bring attention to the ongoing interplay of layers and traces of digital, physical and imaginative urban storytelling?
