YouTube-Stream with Bohdan Shumylovych

Yesterday, Prof Dr Bohdan Shumylovych took the IEG’s guests on an extraordinary journey through time and through the early decades of cybernetics in a socialist city. His talk investigated the socialist conceptualization of the ideal city, with particular attention to the roles of television, radio, and cybernetics in shaping urban governance. The introduction and presentation of the speaker were provided by Jared Warren, a research associate at the IEG.
The stream can now be viewed on the YouTube channel of Science at Risk Emergency Office.

Prof Dr Bohdan Shumylovych serves as Associate Professor at the Ukrainian Catholic University, Lviv, Ukraine. Besides teaching, he conducts research, delivers public lectures, curates thematic exhibitions, and contributes to educational programming.

The event is part of a nationwide lecture series for endangered scholars from Ukraine. The series is organized and financed by Science at Risk and the Leibniz-Forschungsnetzwerk Östliches Europa.
