Pacific Center for Technology and Culture Opens, Vancouver

We are pleased to announce the opening of the Pacific Centre for
Technology and Culture. Located at the University of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, the
Pacific Centre for Technology and Culture (PACTAC) is conceived as a
unique interdisciplinary institute for researching and teaching
issues related to the impact of technological change on culture,
politics and society. Simultaneously a centre of global intellectual
exchange and an innovative and collaborative site for exploring the
digital future, PACTAC approaches the question of technology from
perspectives which are interdisciplinary in scope, critical in
sensibility, and creative, experimental and immersive in method.CTHEORY is an integral part of the intellectual project of the
Pacific Centre for Technology and Culture. "Electronic Theory:
Science, Terror and Nihilism," PACTAC's inaugural lecture series
(listed here) will be streamed and archived on CTHEORY’s web site:
CTHEORY.

The Pacific Centre for Technology and Culture has been created
within the context of Dr. Arthur Kroker's Canada Research Chair in
Technology, Culture and Theory, Department of Political Science,
University of Victoria and is supported with infrastructure funding
from the Canada Foundation for Innovation, British Columbia
Knowledge Developmment Fund as well as the generous support of the
University of Victoria.
