Workshop with Gabi Sobliye and Leil Zahra

Whether you’re an artist or a human rights defender, a non-conforming individual, or you simply want to protect your privacy or wish to live by an (online) name of your choice, building a new identity in the data society we live in can be tricky.

The voyeuristic world we live in, obsessed with leaks and exposing people, affects more than stars and politicians. Through understanding how an identity could be exposed, how traces and social graphs are created, and playing with different threats and scenarios, join us to build your own skills and to sharpen your attention on how you can create, protect and sustain an identity.

This workshop is now full, registration is closed.

 


Presented with Tactical Tech.
