Memefest: Food, Media and Crisis

February 10, 2018 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

The food industry produces food as drugs, advertises food as drugs and turns pleasure into control. The advertising industry uses addictive technology as a business model, while the pharma industry earns billions from deadly addiction. Are we in a new state of addictive culture?

Prepare to have intimate and imaginative conversations and produce texts and images that challenge how we see the relationship of food, culture and media. Sign up (20 Spots!) for this two-day adventure happening at The Hive from 4:15-6pm on Fri, Feb 9th and 10-5 on Sat, Feb 10th.

The workshop will be facilitated by Dr Mark Andrejevic, Kevin Lo, MA and Dr Oliver Vodeb as a collaboration of MEMEFEST and The Pomona College Media Studies Department.
