An interactive Web application project that I developed called The Virtual Eq. Learning Environment was recently published in the international Memefest book, DEMONSTRATING RELEVANCE: RESPONSE-ABILITY -
Theory, practice and imagination of socially responsive communication. The book brings a different, fresh and radical interdisciplinary reflexive look at communications and media practices and theories. It contains textual and visual works that were created between 2002 and 2009 in the context of the International Festival of Radical Communication MEMEFEST and additional new reflections written in the end of 2010. Editorial and curatorial work was conducted in 2010.
The collection of texts is constructive and responsible. With its uncompromising radical approach, it critically questions the ideology and practice of mainstream media-communication discourse. It is looking for theoretical and practical solutions where they are: in socio-responsible conceptualization. The collection of texts is not modeled after a template. It is unique, original and visually invaluable. It combines different visual perspectives and theoretical approaches that are indispensable for the field of social, cultural, media and communication, as well as design studies. A reflexive interlace of theory and practice.It is designed for anyone interested in new aspects of socio-critical thinking: professionals in the field of communication, communication educators with a social fibre, students in cultural, media and communication programs, students of design and art, as well as media activists. Book is in English and in Slovene language. This is a key text for anyone interested in socially responsive communication.
