This event explores the Interactive Documentary (i-Doc) The Seven Digital Deadly Sins, produced by The Guardian and the National Film Board of Canada.  

Available here: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/ng-interactive/2014/jun/06/-sp-digital-deadly-sins

The Seven Digital Deadly sins explores how sinning manifests in, and can be exacerbated by, online behaviours.  

Because of lock down we’ve all been spending more time as our ‘digital selves.’ It’s therefore timely to explore how our values are shaped by and emerge through digital behaviours and how this can be interrogated via interactive documentary as digital a medium.  

Participants will be asked to explore the i-Doc online in advance, and the event will then include presentations, a panel discussion and a Q&A with Fran Panetta (co-founder, Phantom Productions phantomproductions.co.uk) and Janine Steele (producer with the National Film Board of Canada) as well as Dr Ella Harris (Geography Department, Birkbeck University) whose academic work experiments with interactive documentary as a method for exploring crisis conditions.
