{UNGLITCH} Net Neutrality Hackathon + Creative Showcase

We're rallying artists, technologists and makers of any kind to channel our collective responses to the FCC's recent decisions surrounding the repeal of net neutrality. Despite the recent introduction to the Open Internet Preservation Act, there are many concerns around the state of access to information in the United States in the coming years which we aim to discuss and build around.

  • video art
  • data scraping
