The Network Politics project, led by Dr Joss Hands and Dr Jussi Parikka, will hold its third and final conference on 11-13 May 2011 in Cambridge. Under the theme of 'Platform Politics', the aim is to look at the new platforms and forms of politics emerging from social media culture.

The conference will feature some of the most established political and media critics among its speakers, including Michel Bauwens, Tiziana Terranova, Dmitry Kleiner, Tim Jordan, Nick Couldry, Michael Goddard, Nick Dyer-Witheford, Felix Stalder and David M. Berry. Following up from previous collaborations, Greg Elmer and Ganaele Langlois from the Toronto based Infoscape-research lab will also be present. The presentations will address new regimes of politics, labour and activism.
