Assembly of A-Social Behavior x GOGBOT
- SOCIAL MEDIA
- COM
- ALTERNATIVES
- INTERNET
As part of our journey away from Meta, we’re teaming up with Planetart to curate and host the Assembly of A-Social Behavior during GOGBOT: Scroll Panic Repeat. The Assembly brings together talks, workshops, and screenings during a day-long program spread across different festival locations.
Here, we’ll question the role of social media in how we communicate, organize, share, and engage. We ask communication professionals, artists, researchers, and filmmakers about their practices and visions of the internet of the future. Perhaps they can inspire your own transition!
Creatives and artists are raising urgent questions about decentralized platforms, digital gardens, and alternative networks that offer freedom but reduce visibility. If you leave socials would you vanish into silence? Is there another way to exist online, to be seen, to connect? Together we’ll imagine what else is possible, how to build new ecosystems outside the mainstream scroll.
