Paticipatory Media Reading Group
Any Champaign-Urbana local folks might be interested in participating in a reading group on Participatory Media I’m helping to organize along with Andrew. We’ve set our first meeting for Thursday Oct. 13, 7 PM at Cafe Giuliani (formerly the Green St. Coffee House) on Green St. in Campustown, Champaign. There’s a private meeting room in the back, and that’s where we’ll be.
At the first meeting we’ll talk about the areas we want to pursue and we’ll hand out a foundational reading.
Reading groups tend to attract mostly grad students and faculty, but we’re welcome to anyone who wants to participate.
