A digital, public-facing, teaching-focused resource on news, policy, politics, and scholarship related to technology cultures.
This digital resource provides public-facing and teachable materials to supplement a coedited volume titled Social Media, Religion, and Culture (under contract with Routledge, expected completion in March 2026). The volume seeks to provide an overview of social media research on religious and cultural formations from around the world. Here you will find a link to the edited volume, a blog series in which contributors link a current media coverage of tech policy to internet research, author videos in which contributors will provide a ted-talk style overview of their projects, a podcast featuring interviews with tech policy writers, technologists, and internet scholars who consider tech innovation in concert with the recent scholarship and writing, and finally, a news corner which will provide summaries of recent tech developments in public policy, law, and scholarship.
This series of blogs will address a timely tech topic with a public-facing explainer piece that draws on current research.
This is a series of ted-talk style videos made by contributors to the open-access edited volume Social Media, Religion, and Culture. The videos will provide short, accessible overviews of their scholarship in the volume intended for teachers and the broader public to engage their work.
This is a series of audio interviews with technologists, journalists, scholars, and tech policy researchers to offer a their perspective on current events in tech.
This is a space for current news. Submissions via a form will include a link to a recently published article on issues in tech, culture, and religion and a brief description of the article and its importance.
