Faultines. Considering Fissures in Information and Society
World-Information City Bangalore
This presentation traces an itinerary through faultlines in the collisions between information practices, social processes and histories of certainty, suspicion and acts of disclosure. It weaves histories of identification technologies with contemporary developments to offer speculations on how we may begin to talk about the politics of information in society in South Asia today.

Globalisation: Materiality and the Limits of a Will to Power

Speaking at the World Information City Conference, Bangalore, historian and cultural critic Lata Mani challenged the widespread belief in the triumph of globalisation. Bangalore's IT locations, she argues, are "like fortresses built on the quicksand of a culturally alien territory".

The Scanner at the Border
World-Information City Bangalore
What are the regimes of information control and surveillance that are intrinsic to the rise of the modern system of immigration control and border patrol? How do these systems affect the lives of people on the move, as well as those of people who stay behind fortified borders? What methods are being used to resist and subvert these technologies of control. How have activists responded to the politics of information in the 'No Border; Camps and Campaigns in Europe and elsewhere.

The Collateral Damage of Breaking News
World-Information City Bangalore
Conference Closing Conversation
How can passionate and critical voices make themselves heard in the din of 'embedded journalism'. How can the spell of 'Breaking News' be broken by a insistence on reflective and thoughtful speech? Do we need to look long and hard at how crises get reported? At how things get remembered, forgotten or resurrected? Is the representation of a conflict as subject to moral questions as is participation in the conflict? What is the responsibility of the writer, the journalist, the artist and the practitioner of information - not just in terms of bearing witness to the urgencies of the present, but also in relation to the imperatives of reflection for the future. What else comes free with 'free speech'? These are some of the questions that Arundhati Roy, novelist and essayist will explore.

World-Information City - Bangalore Conference
World-Information City Bangalore, World-Information.Org Bangalore 2005
While information and its interaction with urban environments are part of everyday experience, it remains a grossly under-theorized category. World-Information City, and the conference that is placed at its culmination, is an effort on our part to inaugurate a set of discussions that we hope will inform future work in this area as well as contribute to debates within the public domain.

Myths about Copyright
Non Stop Future, World-Information City Bangalore, World-Information.Org
The task of this paper has been to examine the various myths that sustain copyright. This is just the beginning of the process of questioning the assumptions on which copyright is based. If we are to seriously engage with the totalising logic of copyright, two tasks lie ahead. Firstly, we will need to continue to chip away at the foundational logic of copyright, exposing the shaky grounds on which it makes its universal claims. Secondly, we need to actively examine alternative models through which we can understand the production and dissemination of knowledge and culture.
