AHRC AGORA
AHRC Agora is the public face of the Acid Horizon Research Commons; it is an open space for shared thought, live inquiry, and collective engagement.
As part of our commitment to building a genuine intellectual commons, revenues from our courses and archive subscriptions support a broad range of free public events, including in-person gatherings, live podcast recordings, open online panels, and discussions centered on significant books and ideas shaping contemporary thought.
AHRC Agora ensures that serious theoretical work remains accessible and active in public life. Here, research opens outward and ideas are expressed, challenged, and shared in real time.
Below you will find recordings of past Agora events. To join us live, visit our Upcoming at AHRC or Events page for future engagements.
'Digital Theory' Panel Discussion: Is Theory Itself Digital? (Fazi, Galloway, Weatherby, Handleman)
The Digital Theory panel convened scholars and to examine the ontological stakes of the digital condition beyond nostalgia for the analog. Centered on Digital Theory (University of Minnesota Press), the conversation explored number, mediation, continuity, and the political implications of computation as both medium and environment. The discussion moved between philosophy and contemporary culture, asking what it means to think critically within rather than outside the digital.
