Join us for an interactive workshop on "Decolonizing Concepts through Memes," where participants will take inspiration in the Brazilian sociologist and educator, Paulo Freire, and French Philosopher, Henri Bergson, to critically deconstruct mythologies of AI and creatively reinterpret visual media, and the transformative potential of memes to challenge and disrupt colonial narratives embedded in political, social, and cultural concepts as reinforced by predictive and generative AI.

Please join us for an upcoming book workshop hosted by Global Theory Forum featuring Prof. Jonathan Floyd (University of Bristol) and his upcoming work-in-progress volume: Political Philosophy: Methods and Methodology. This event, which is kindly sponsored by LISS DTP and QMUL’s TheoryLab, is a one-day book workshop intended to be of particular interest for ECRs and will feature a series of sessions (corresponding to the volume’s various chapters) dedicated to breaking down and engaging with Floyd’s work in progress manuscript. The workshop will also feature and finish with a Masterclass session orientated toward ECRs who are concerned with getting their theorising into publishable book form that will be led by Prof. Floyd himself.
