Vortrag: Aufstieg und Fall der Dotcoms
Die Folgen des Zusammensturzes der Dotcoms sind weit größer als erwartet.
Nach der Internetwirtschaft ist auch der globale Telekommarkt in die
Krise geraten und hat eine weltweite Rezession in Gang gebracht. Was war
das besondere an den Dotcoms? Der Vortrag befasst die eigenartige
Dotcom-mischung von Hippieträumen einer freien Welt gepaart mit konservativem
Unternehmertum. Als Spiegel der neunziger Jahren werden die Dotcomideologien
genauso einen langen Schatten haben wie das 68er Gedankengut.

Workshop: Mapping Swiss Info Society
In the workshop Geert Lovink and students of SNM (Studienbereich Neue 
Medien, HGKZ) investigate the political and economic forces in Switzerland 
that drive the Information
Society agenda. For example, who is representing the country in
international bodies such as the Internet task force, ICANN and the Internet
Society? Who is owning the .ch domain name space and what is their policy?
Which international telecoms are active in Switzerland and what has changed
since the crash of their stocks? The project will look for the 'soft'
approaches of the managerial class and their consultants. Who is driving the
Knowledge Society agenda? The aim of the workshop will not be to come up
with a complete overview of the industry. Rather, it offers participants
the freedom to choose their own topics, methodology and display
technologies.
