Event Description

Breaking the "Internet Bubble"
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5 l 6:30 PM l ICP SCHOOL
A panel discussion on the effects of the "Internet bubble"—how and why we tend to both consume and share media that confirms our pre-existing biases
 
In the months following the 2016 election, the phenomena of the “Internet bubble” has quickly become well-documented. Writers, thinkers, and cultural producers have wondered aloud: “why in a robust, prolific information environment do we consume and share out media that confirms our pre-existing biases?” This program is a live exploration of this issue and, more importantly, a forum for discussing solutions on how to bridge our nation’s divide and use art, storytelling, and visual analysis to exit our own echo chambers.
This is a free event, but please register in advance. ICP Members have access to the best seats at our public programs in our reserved members’ section.
