DESIGNCAST | Dan Stiles | DGDC

An eye-opening discussion with Dan Stiles before his Meme Warfare: Design in the Age of Disinformation talk at Adobe Max. This is a timely conversation for all creatives. So WHY is he talking about THIS? Dan tells us about the inspiration for his talk, including an honest look at how digital media has played a huge role in false information and how we are just drinking it up. As disseminators of information, are we part of the problem, or the solution? To help understand, we discuss: The classic techniques of propaganda and how they have been repurposed for digital content How to follow the pathways of disinformation through the new digital media landscape Why traditional safeguards are inadequate to stop the spread of viral lies What we as content creators can do on the front lines of this dystopian war on truth You can watch his final presentation here!
