Wikipedia:Meetup/LA/Wikipedia Day 2017

• This event is being held at the same time as a major march ([https://www.facebook.com/events/746378122198370/ FB link]) so expect some level of traffic and parking headaches. (Be sure to say clear of Pershing Square!)
• In case this is useful to anyone attending without a car: The easiest Metro stop is Pershing Square, on the Red Line or the Purple Line. From there, it's just five blocks down Broadway to the Ace Hotel.Penny Richards (talk) 04:36, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
• But given what's going on at Pershing Square that day, a better choice for Metro riders might be the station at 7th St / Metro Center.Penny Richards (talk) 01:25, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
• There's parking at the Ace and several nearby lots. (Please note that we're not able to validate parking at the Ace.)

Facts Are Not White Noise

Presentation by Peter Lunenfeld

Department Vice Chair, Professor at UCLA Design Media Arts

Peter Lunenfeld's work on digital culture can be mapped via a Venn diagram that includes media philosophy, design theory, art criticism, urban history and digital humanities. Books include: The Secret War Between Downloading and Uploading, Digital_Humanities (co-author), USER: InfoTechnoDemo, Snap to Grid, and The Digital Dialectic (all from MIT Press). He is the creator and editorial director of the Mediawork project, a cross-platform publishing series for the MIT Press. His current research examines new modes of knowledge formation that go beyond print, the design of the digital humanities, and the centrality of meaning making to digital culture.
