About CCMISC
We understand media creativity not only as innovation, but also grass-roots, bottom-up community practices that challenge traditional uses and designs of technological and media systems. We are committed to addressing inequalities related to the use of and access to networked media through engaged research and projects. We aim to empower marginalized communities through technology and media engagement, promote mobility/data justice, and create the conditions for sustainable “smart” cities. Additionally, we aim to challenge race, gender, and socioeconomic inequalities both locally and globally through creative engagements with networked media.
What we do:
- Organize interdisciplinary and inter-institutional events such as book talks, research jams and film screenings
- Support cutting-edge faculty research through mini-grants, promotional support, etc.
- Maintain a collaborative research space in Snell Library on Northeastern’s Boston campus
