Sex, Love, and Reproduction in the Age of Technology (Dec 6 & Dec 7)

#artificialintelligence

Event Description: In in our "cyber" age how do we do sex, love and reproduction? This seminar is an interdisciplinary dialogue among psychoanalysts, critical and cultural thinkers, writers and those interested in how our age of technology, consumer (re)production, including pornography, and mass social media has affected what psychoanalysts call "the subject," which is how each and every one of us is uniquely human. The seminar takes place over 2 days, commencing on Friday evening with a panel of invited speakers who will give short presentations, followed by audience discussion. The seminar continues on Saturday morning with the invited keynote speaker, Isabel Millar (see talk and bio below). This is followed by a roundtable discussion with the Friday evening panellists and the invited speaker, and the seminar will conclude with an audience Q&A session.
