Episode notes

This week, Real Life Mag editor in chief & author of Verso Books' "The Social Photo" Nathan Jurgenson and Dr. Jamie Cohen explore identity during a pandemic. How do we view our physical selves in relation to our digital identities? What effect does Covid-19 have on the convergence of the two? What ethical considerations should we account for when migrating the majority of our work to digital spaces?

This discussion was streamed live on YouTube on Wednesday, April 22, 2020.
