Tickets are going fast for this year’s Guelph Lecture—On Being, part of the annual ArtsEverywhere Festival in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Our keynote lecture will be presented by author, activist, and journalist Cory Doctorow on the “enshittification” of the internet, and how we in Canada can collectively respond to the decay of civil discourse caused in part by social-media-driven disinformation, greed, and an increasingly policed internet. Prior to the keynote lecture, Governor General Award-winning writer Madhur Anand will present a literary reading of her recent work, and chart-topping Canadian musician Billianne will perform a set of introspective folk-pop. Tickets are still available on the River Run Centre’s website.
