This will be the seventh Cybersalon/NMK Xmas Lecture. The lecture was established in 2001 as an opportunity for leading members of the UK new media industry to talk freely about their work and speculate about how media and communications technologies are interacting and impacting on society, economics, politics and culture. Lectures are attended by a mixture of new media professionals, academics, commentators, journalists and policy makers.
This year Martyn Ware Martyn, best-known as a seminal 80s pop icon and co-founder of The Human League and Heaven 17, will head up this exciting event.
