Big Bang Data play host to this month’s P/O/P/A/G/A/N/D/A.
January’s P/O/P/A/G/A/N/D/A, explores our often confusing personal relationship with Data. Host and tech specialist Zoe Cunningham is joined by digital culture writer and Guardian columnist Tom Chatfield and web psychologist Natalie Nahai to introduce ideas around their relationship with Data Presence, Data Intelligence, Data Abstinence.
The audience will then be invited to contribute to the conversation and potentially be part of the conception of a new language and perceptions around Data Intelligence or ‘DQ’.
P/O/P/A/G/A/N/D/A is an event, which controversially proposes a new perspective around a live issue that is floating through popular culture, people’s minds and current conversations without perhaps being fully considered, punctured, ‘popped’. From the event we then produce an audio P/O/P/Cast that we share with the leading thinkers and influencers in the space to help them pop some assumptions and see their world a little differently.
