Welcome to AGENT (Melbourne), presented by A Lot To Say, an ALTS Project.

In this very special discussion, we are joined by Kai Brach, a German-born, Melbourne-based independent designer, editor, and publisher. He’s the one-man-band behind print magazine Offscreen and weekly newsletter Dense Discovery.

Kai spends a lot of time thinking about how we shape technology and how technology shapes us. Since starting Offscreen more than seven years ago, his publication has evolved into a strong independent voice with a thoughtful, critical look at how technology shapes our societies – for better and worse. Join us for a conversation about technology, ethics, and what it takes to publish a print magazine about our digital future.

***The ticket price includes a free copy of Offscreen (valued at US$20) as well as beverages***

*The Commons QV is an accessible venue with lift access available from ground floor and flat floor seating. Please contact us if you have any questions relating to accessibility on the evening via hello@alts.today
