Cultural Production and Technology Shape New Meeting of CPF Sesc, Cetic.br/NIC.br and PUC-SP

The activity will be on May 9, and registrations are available online and at Sesc São Paulo units

After the launch of the survey ICT Culture 2018, with a panel discussion and international conference, the program of the Cycle "Culture, Education, and Technologies in Debate" advances with the second meeting of the year on May 9, to discuss 21st-century cultural production and the changes brought by the dissemination of the Internet. Conducted by the Regional Center for Studies on the Development of the Information Society (Cetic.br) of the Brazilian Network Information Center (NIC.br), Sesc São Paulo, and the Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo (PUC-SP), the activity will start at 10 am. Registrations can be made on the CPF Sesc page or at Sesc units.

George Yúdice (professor at the University of Miami) and Eliane Costa (Coordinator of the MBA at Fundação Getúlio Vargas) will discuss the influence of the Internet in the creation and circulation of cultural goods, with the setting of new markets, platforms, legitimacy mechanisms, and forms of online participation. The proposal of the meeting is to think about the historical and current models of society development and their effects on cultural production. Eliane Costa will promote a reflection on culture in articulation with cyberspace, based on new territorialities and strategies developed in metropolitan peripheries, specifically in the metropolis of Rio de Janeiro. George Yúdice, in turn, will address the transformations in access and participation in cultural activities brought by the Internet, with an emphasis on the issue of legitimacy and taste preferences in the digital age. The meeting will be mediated by Mauricio Trindade (deputy manager of CPF-Sesc and Ph.D. in Sociology of Culture - USP).

Cycle of Dialogues

In its second edition, the Cycle organized by Cetic.br/NIC.br, CPF Sesc, and PUC-SP aims to expand reflection on strategic aspects at the interface between culture, education, and technologies. The first meeting of the year included a debate on the opportunities and risks of a connected world, with participation from Danilo Santos de Miranda (regional director of Sesc São Paulo), Demi Getschko (CEO of NIC.br), Maria Amalia Pie Abib Andery (rector of PUC-SP), and Adriana Couto (journalist and presenter of the program Metropolis, at TV Cultura), as well as a conference on the new consumer society with Gilles Lipovetsky (philosopher and professor at the University of Grenoble).

The next meeting of the Cycle "Culture, education, and technologies in debate" will promote on June 18 reflections involving the universe of diversity in digital culture, politics, and education. Present will be Rafael Evangelista, professor at Unicamp, and Maria Antonieta Antonacci, professor at PUC-SP, with mediation by Professor Fernando Almeida, also from PUC-SP.
