Defining “media” as the intersections of technical knowledge, humanistic investments, social relations, economic models, political stakes, and aesthetic expression that people use to understand and shape their lives, MASTS is an interdisciplinary community of knowledge and action that aims to rigorously and playfully build better media infrastructures, strengthen public life, and advance social justice.

Spring 2021 Meeting Time: Thursdays, 3-4pm (Pacific).  Please email Prof Mike Ananny (ananny@usc.edu) / Colin Maclay (c.mac@usc.edu) for Zoom info.

MASTS is a cross-campus initiative of the University of Southern California supported by the Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism and a Levan Institute for the Humanities working group.
