UAL Futures together with IAM - Internet Age Media present an evening of films and discussion around internet culture and the futures of media.

Join us at London College of Communication for an exclusive screening of We Are Internet - a video series exploring the human side of Internet Age Media.

Across seven short episodes We Are Internet tells the stories and visions of influential people behind leading niche publications, agencies, companies and institutions from around the world.

They share the why’s of emerging mindsets, lifestyles and perspectives, flying under the mainstream of media.

Featuring Alex Bec (It’s Nice That), Jeff Hamada (Booooooom.com), Filip Visnjic, (Creative Applications Network) and many more, the series is the start of a conversation about understanding internet as culture, from the context of media and creativity.

The screening will be followed by a discussion with some of the films protagonists about the evolution of internet age media and what it means for students and graduates.
