A Digital Janus: Looking Forward, Looking Back
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2014. Cyberculture and cyberspace have become part of our realities. This is an inescapable fact. Their digital technologies have come to underpin many aspects of our lives, our history, and our future. Already, these technologies exert considerable influence upon the institutions and structure of our societies, including those that define our concepts of art and aesthetics, our social interactions, societal and individual remembrance, even how we govern and are governed. Cyberculture’s ubiquity raises questions of our concepts of being and aloneness. Can we experience solitude if we are all connected? Will the natural state of being soon be ‘always on, always connected?’ To remember everything, is it a blessing or a curse? Is the promise of digital ‘immortality’ possible or even desirable? When do we cease mourning, if the dead are memorialized in digital perpetuity? Within this volume is a collection of essays from an international group of scholars, artists, and practitioners who address these and other questions about our future, looking at where we have come in our past.

Actualmente no existe debate alguno sobre la importancia de la inclusión de la educación social en dichas redes sociales, ya que el debate solo se centra en los beneficios o peligros que conllevan su uso.

Una vez mostrada la importancia de la relación entre redes sociales y educación social, puede ser fundamental crear una marca en internet, así como espacios que pretendan cubrir este fin. El blog «Educació social? des dels inicis» ofrece una respuesta a esta necesidad al tiempo que proporciona información académica del Grado de Educación Social en la Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, reflexiones personales sobre diferentes aspectos relacionados con dicha profesión, así como un apartado destinado a recoger diversas voces de profesionales de la educación social para fomentar el conocimiento de la profesión y generar un debate en torno a la misma.

The New Public Art
Essays on the rise of community-focused art projects and anti-monuments in Mexico since the 1980s. Mexico has long been lauded and studied for its post-revolutionary public art, but recent artistic practices have raised questions about how public art is created and for whom it is intended. In The New Public Art, Mara Polgovsky Ezcurra, together with a number of scholars, artists, and activists, looks at the rise of community-focused art projects, from collective cinema to off-stage dance and theatre, and the creation of anti-monuments that have redefined what public art is and how people have engaged with it across the country since the 1980s. The New Public Art investigates the reemergence ...
