\"Headshot\u00a0Dr. Mara Einstein<\/strong>‘s latest book, Black Ops Advertising<\/em>, is an expos\u00e9 of the rapid rise of sponsored content, a strategy whereby advertisers become publishers and publishers create advertising. Einstein shows how stealth advertising has so blurred the lines between editorial content and marketing message that it has become virtually impossible to tell real news from paid endorsements. She will discuss her findings and how they apply to our current media milieu.<\/p>\n

\"Headshot\u00a0For Steven Lambert<\/strong> art is a bridge that connects uncommon, idealistic, or even radical ideas with everyday life. His work aims to craft the conditions that will allow these ideas to connect with people for a mutually meaningful exchange. Often this means working collaboratively with the audience, bringing them into the process or even having them physically complete the work. Lambert is currently a professor of New Media at SUNY Purchase.<\/p>\n

\"Headshot\u00a0Dara Blumenthal<\/strong> is the co-founder of an organizational consulting firm, and applies her PhD in sociology to questions about the nature of work. Her book, Little Vast Rooms of Undoing<\/em>, is a meditation on socially dictated practices and their associated emotions. She argues that experiences within public toilets expose the fissures of individual identity construction and understanding, while in turn, opening the possibilities for a more relational and cohesive experience of the embodied self.<\/p>\n

\"Headshot\u00a0Dr. Kyra Gaunt<\/strong>‘s work contrasts the hypervisibility of marginalized online groups like black girls, who are overindexed on video driven mobile web, with the invisibility of their participation in a text based, open source site like Wikipedia. She argues that a vilifying culture and visual meme generation around images of a generalized black girl socially reproduce racialized and gender oppression in an age where algorithms reflect taste.<\/p>\n
