Description

Anonymous has been in the news a lot, lately, between the arrests, and various attacks (including an attack on a British abortion service website, in which the arrested man claimed to be connected to Anonymous). We wanted to get different take on Anonymous, exploring it from more of an anthropological point of view. Gabriella Coleman is Wolfe Chair in Scientific and Technological Literacy at McGill University. She’s been studying Anonymous, and is currently writing a book on it. She has described Anonymous as being like a Hydra or a Rhizome: a decentralized set of nodes with different subgroups.”
