Victor Chaix
Researchers
Victor Chaix is a Master student in Digital Humanities, at the University of Bologna. He currently conducts his research at the Institute of Network Cultures, with Geert Lovink, in the aim of conceiving new forms of online mediation. His thesis work is at the crossroads of philosophy and design, in an approach that is both theoretical and experimental – that is, in which certain concepts drawn from the humanities are put at the service of coding alternative digital spaces of discussion and publication. He is also a founding member and vice-president of the Association des Amis de la Génération Thunberg (AAGT), for which he is notably in charge of the blog. Victor has had several experiences in journalism, such as at Le Monde or the online daily Reporterre, as well as more “mediactivist” ones, within Extinction Rebellion and, before that, within student newspapers and magazines. His collaborations with Bernard Stiegler and his work on the philosopher’s last tracks of a “new foundation for theoretical computer science” encouraged him to extend these experiences, by working on the very conditions of the production, circulation and interpretation of digital information.
