For those not familiar with Norbert Wiener’s life and work, he had a strong interest in the relationship between technology and society.

We invite contributions for this conference on the various themes, whether from a contemporary, futuristic or historical perspective, within this topic that were of interest to Wiener and touched his life, including:

- Information ethics

- Technological innovation and economic development

- Critiques of intellectual property

- Automation and the future of work -> digital labour

- Cyber warfare and crime

- Science fiction as social commentary

- Political interference with academic research and the militarisation of science


Please get in touch with the Wiener and Innovation chair Angela Daly <mailto:(angelacdaly /at/ gmail.com)> with any questions or requests for more info.
