Media at McGill’s Participatory Open Online Course (POOC) on The
Participatory Condition is now open for registration
(http://www.pcond.ca/pooc/). This free, non-credited online course runs
from October 15 to December 6, 2013. The POOC interrogates a range of
issues pertaining to the history, problems and possibilities of
participatory media in contemporary society, and will focus on aspects
of mediated participation including surveillance, the predicament of
participation, gaming, publics, art, and design. All participants who
register for the POOC are invited to learn, share, collaborate and
create knowledge using the POOC’s digital platform.

The POOC complements Media at McGill’s international colloquium on The
Participatory Condition (#PCond) taking place in Montreal on November 15
