Hacktivism and the Art of Resistance with Paolo Cirio

Join internationally acclaimed artist and activist Paolo Cirio for a timely conversation on art and the panopticon. From facial recognition and data exploitation to digital privacy and state secrecy, Cirio’s work confronts the structures that shape our lives. This discussion will explore how art can intervene in systems of control and spark new conversations around democracy, technology, and civil rights.
