Romantic Hackers: Keats, Wordsworth and Total Surveillance

Anne Marggraf-Turley and Professor Richard Marggraf Turley

This co-authored paper – a collaboration between European Languages and English & Creative Writing – has been accepted for the annual international Hackers Congress 29C3 in Hamburg, Germany: ‘Not My Department’

Combining literary and cultural interests from two departments, the paper explores the ideological framing of modern mass surveillance culture, and early forms of resistance, in Romantic England of the 1790s. We discuss the concept of analogue hacking as a precursor to contemporary forms. Topics of discussion include German privacy debates, international Cypherpunks and drones.

Live online streaming of all talks with IRC channel to take part in the discussions afterwards will be provided as well as recordings on a dedicated YouTube channel.

Anne Marggraf-Turley will also be part of The Interpretation Project at this 4-day congress.
