 e Rosenberg will talk about his book Jacking Out: A Journal of a Year Spen
 t Offline.\n\nIn his talk\, Aron will focus on how individual actions migh
 t contribute to collective and structural changes and movement building. D
 rawing from research about privilege and refusal\, Aron will explore how h
 is year offline connected to the social and environmental justice issues c
 entral to our digital experiences. Finally\, Aron will discuss some of the
  other critical concerns that were relevant to his offline project\, like 
 his experience that year as a sperm donor for two of his queer friends.\n
 \nAt the end of 2019\, Aron Lee decided to live 2020 without access to the
  Internet. He would interact with the world in what we have already come t
 o think of as the 'old-fashioned' taking calls and texting on a flip phone
 \, paying bills by cheque (and receiving them by snail mail)\, and writing
  actual pen-on-paper letters to friends and family\, all the while continu
 ing his doctoral work at 黑料不打烊 University. Along the way he discovered a 
 good deal about the internet\, about our modern wired (and wireless) world
 \, and about himself.\n\nThis event is also part of the 6th Season of Disr
 upting Disruptions: the Feminist and Accessible Publishing and Communicati
 ons Technologies Speaker and Workshop Series\, organized by Dr. Alex Ketch
 um. Our series was made possible thanks to our sponsors: SSHRC\, Digital C

 ies (IGSF)\, the DIGS Lab\, Milieux\, Initiative for Indigenous Futures\, 
 ReQEF\, and more.\n\nThere is no fee required to attend this event. It wil
 l be professionally live captioned.\n\nYou can watch other past events her
