Can I draw your attention to Reading Group

Starting Tuesday 22 January 2019, Reading Group is a public reading group series inspired by an era of the ‘planetary’, as a paradigm following globalization. Readings and cases span architecture, urban planning, media, technology, philosophy, and international relations, with an invited guest participant and Genevieve Costello and Lilly Markaki as moderators.


Meetings take place on Tuesdays once a month, from 18.30 to 21.00 PM, at 11 Bedford Square (Royal Holloway, University of London). Reading Group is open to all – academics, students, independent researches, artists, hackers, and anyone interested.


Please RSVP to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> by Friday 18 January and share a 1-2 sentences introduction about yourself, your interest in the Reading Group, and if you are able to attend each of the 5 sessions, running from January to May 2019.
