Seminar w/ Robert K. Logan (MIT), media ecologist

The seminar is the first public event by Robert K. Logan in Hungary. The
media theorist and former colleague of Marshall McLuhan will focus on their
research projects summarized in their seminal books 'The Alphabet Effect'
(1986) and 'The Future of the Library' (2015). Logan will deliver critical
insights on how media ecology evolved in the 70s and validate whether the
predictions from 40 years have already arrived.

After the seminar we will release the latest issue of Index-link featuring
Zsófia Bene's interview with Robert K. Logan.

The attendance is free from charge. Logan would like you to read the resume
of The Future of the Library before the seminar. Please send an email to
seminar.logan at gmail.com and we will forward you the text.
