Viral Culture: The Internet’s Effect on Us All

Description:

The internet is drastically what we consume, and how we consume it. More than that: It’s changing who we are and how we relate to each other. Hear internet culture experts discuss the implications. The dizzying rise of visual culture on the internet, from GIFs to YouTube video to Insta Stories, represents a sea change in how we represent, and think of, ourselves. Join a fireside chat between Amanda Hess (internet culture writer / contributor for the NYTimes), Raymond Braun (leading influencer and founder of RWB Media), and Allison Stern (co-founder of online video data company Tubular Labs) as they paint the picture of our viral culture path with their insights, data, research, and predictions.
