Silence, Complacency, and Comfort in an Age of Collapse.
April 11 - 13 at Acadia University
At this year’s interdisciplinary conference, hosted by TBD* at Acadia University, we are exploring the topic of silence, complacency, and comfort in an age of collapse. Graduate students from varying disciplines will present their work, and we invite students, scholars, and any others interested to join in on the three days of stimulating conversation.
We are also excited to host five brilliant keynote speakers, discussing relevant topics like AI, fast fashion, conspiracy theories, surveillance, and culture.
