Simon Lindgren researches patterns of social organization, participation and conflict through discourse studies of digital culture.
As the use of digital media becomes more and more interactive, user-driven and co-operative, relations of power that were previously well-established are increasingly undermined. Prior ideas about who is supposed and expected to produce things, services, worldviews and ideologies - and who is to consume them - are questioned.
Simon analyzes issues concerning power, resistance, production and collaboration, through these digital media. More information and a full publication list can be found at www.simonlindgren.com.
