[Commlist] Online Summer School on Digital Technologies and the Environment

**Digital Politics Summer School: Digital Technologies and the Environment**

What are the environmental impacts of and conditions for digital 
technologies or digitization practices more generally? What constitutes 
the relation between digital technologies and the environment? Whether 
and how is the relation maintained, disrupted, repaired and 
reconfigured? What are its temporalities? What are the ethical and 
political implications of reconsidering the relation between digital 
technologies and the environment? And what are the methodological and 
epistemological challenges of doing so?

The School will explore the relations between digital technologies and 
environmental concerns, covering topics of digital waste, digital 
toxicity, e-waste, communication infrastructures, and smart cities, in a 
series of on-line Masterclasses with Alenda Chang, Nanna Bonde Thylstrup 
, Rahul Mukherjee, Liu Xin and Adi Kuntsman. Registered participants 
will also be invited to attend a pre-School keynote by Benedetta 
Brevini, the author of “Is AI Good for the Planet”, on June the 10^th . 
Please check the link below for further details and registration. 
Masterclasses are kept intentionally small, early registration is 
recommended.
