[Nettime-bold] FREE WARE: BORDERHACK!

[fran ilich <ilich@de-lete.tv>]

NOVEMBER 21
FREE WARE: BORDERHACK!, 7 PM, LECTURE ROOM
Fran Ilich is the director of Borderhack!, an annual three-day event that
takes place in Tijuana, Mexico. New media artists, activists, and punk
rockers alike gather to explore the impact that the U.S.-Mexico border has
on daily life. As technology and global economic forces continue to blur the
boundaries between cultures, the existence of a physical dividing line
between the two countries is called into question. For this talk, Ilich
discusses Borderhack! and his current work, Modem Drama.
