co-matter digest #48: The future of the social web is...

Agency.
Care.
Safety.

These things are crucial to the future of the social web, according to Charles Broskoski (co-founder of creative research platform Are.na), Lisa Ding (senior product designer at Twitter) and Darius Kazemi (Internet artist and Mozilla Fellow). Every single day, the three of them work and reflect on how the social web is evolving – so we invited them to share their opinions on how to design constructive public conversations, create spaces for diverse interactions and develop platforms that respect each member’s humanity at The Conference 2019 in Malmö last week.

Watch their talks and read about why agency, care and safety are important for the new social web

News from the co-matter network

Linda Liukas launched Love Letters for Computers, a new video series that shows teachers how they can better explain computers and programming to kids. It’s been so amazing to follow Linda as she continues her journey to teach computer literacy to children around the world. To find out more listen to our conversation with her and check out helloruby.com.
Claire and Jona, aka YACHT, dropped a new album called Chain Tripping. Ars Technica has called it a landmark for AI music.
Get ready to get inspired because all of the talks from this year's The Conference are already online in their video archive (alongside over 300 carefully curated and interesting talks). Also, Severin wrote a little ode to why The Conference is the conference that every conference should be like, but then isn’t.
This week is Techfestival time. We’ll be at the festival in Copenhagen to host our Summit, watch keynote talks and moderate the studio stage conversations with Linda Liukas and Dan Hill on Saturday. Say hi if you’re there!

From the Archives >> Khalid Albaih: How we lost the internet

Earlier this year, we spoke to Khalid Albaih – a political cartoonist and social media activist – about how social media has changed since he started, how politics got involved and the chances of the Internet remaining a space where we can raise our voices.
