As part of the annual conference of the Society for Media Studies 2025 (GfM), a public panel discussion on the topic of "Digital Powers" will take place on Tuesday, 16 September from 5 to 6.30 pm at the Heinz Nixdorf MuseumsForum. Registration is required and possible online.
The panel discussion will analyse how digital power structures can be described and what effects they have. The focus will be on influencing users through algorithms, radicalisation and democratisation through social media and questions of publicity and privacy in the context of new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI).
Dr Sevda Can Arslan from Paderborn University will moderate the panel discussion, which will also feature Eva Berendsen (Head of Communications at the Anne Frank Educational Centre), Prof. Dr Rainer Mühlhoff (University of Osnabrück), Natascha Strobl (independent political scientist) and Andre Wolf (press spokesperson and social media coordinator at Mimikama).
More information on the event can be found in the programme of the GfM annual conference.
