Spheres of Digital Influence

 – Wye Stage

The sociologist, the digital literacy expert and the tech journalist discuss the interplay between digital technology and politics.

Mikael Klintman explains how the framing of information influences the way we see the world, revealing how canny communicators mislead us without relying on overt deception; Dr Kaitlyn Regehr questions how the relationship between tech and politics should work to protect us all in the digital space; and Carl Miller leads us into the deep heart of digital and explains how its lawlessness could be a threat to democracy.

Klintman is a Professor of Sociology at the University of Lund and a former Fellow of Environment and Sustainability at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His most recent book is Framing. Dr Regehr is an associate professor at UCL, and is a consultant to MPs and to the Metropolitan Police. Miller is a founder of the Centre for the Analysis of Social Media at the think tank Demos.
