OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
On Monday (6th May) we’ll be hosting Dr Sam Kinsley of Exeter University, who will be talking about automation in the 21st Century and how automation is both imagined and enacted. With debates about robots either ‘taking over the world’ or facilitating ‘fully automated luxury’ often at the forefront of contemporary discussions, this will definitely be a fascinating talk! The event is open to all subjects, and is free for members and £2 for non-members.
