Professorial Lecture – Pirate Philosophy

Monday 29 Sept/6.00pm/AB107 – Goldstein Lecture Theatre

Gary Hall, Professor of Media and Performing Arts, CSAD

“This lecture presents a series of performative media projects or ‘media gifts’. This project investigates some of the implications of internet piracy for the arts and humanities. ‘Pirate Philosophy’ explores such ideas both philosophically and legally through the creation of an actual ‘pirate’ text.”

Light refreshments will be available after the Lecture at approximately 7pm
