Join UQ's School of Communication and Arts for the 2025 Tom O'Regan Public Lecture titled 'Platform Epistemology: Shaping Algorithmic Knowledge in the Visibility Game' presented by Assistant Professor Kelley Cotter.

This two-day symposium explores the visibility games at the heart of social media’s promotional and creator cultures. From influencers and everyday users to advertisers and automated algorithms, everyone on digital platforms is caught in the dynamics of being seen, being hidden, or being unknowingly profiled. What does it mean to be hyper-visible? What does it mean to stay in the algorithmic dark?

Explore how social media shapes identity in our upcoming HDR workshop, facilitated by Dr Kelley Cotter. Participants will investigate how algorithms influence what we see and how we understand ourselves and others, engaging with concepts like algorithmic identities and algorithmized selves.
