LATE 05: Innovate Food

Thursday 1 July 2010
6.30pm - 11pm

Is bio-technology the future of food? Proponents claim food technology could help to feed the most impoverished parts of this world and even fuel our cars. Opponents claim the industrialisation of agriculture is profit driven, and not only decreases the quality of our food, but escalates issues of hunger as crops are increasingly grown to feed and fuel the developed the world.

LATE 06: Innovate Entertainment & Culture

Thursday, 5 August 2010
6.30pm - 11pm

This LATE investigates the role that cultural institutions and the entertainment industry will potentially play in the lives of future generations. To what extent must cultural activities adapt to processes of modernisation? What will the impact of digital distribution of music, movies, television and games be on the way entertainment is made and consumed?
