DESCRIPTION:UC Berkeley's 0n0n0n series of conferences continues with 10/10/10: Cell 
 Phone Justice, a conference concerned with the cell phone's impact on crime 
 and justice. Informed by recent events where cell phones played a role in 
 the fight for justice, and other events where cell phones played a role in 
 perpetrating crimes, panelists will discuss some social and cultural 
 complexities of the most ubiquitous handheld device on the planet.\n\nCell 
 phones are tools of justice, crime and liberation but also tools of 
 surveillance. The individual gains expressive freedoms, while the corporate 
 powers that shape our communities gain data. This data about our daily 
 habits and trajectories plays a role in predicting human activity, which 
 could help us achieve better collective welfare. On the other hand, it may 
 become necessary to deprogram from cell phone usage, and learn what, beyond 
 information, makes life precious.\n\nOrganized by Dr. Cecil Brown and 
 artist and Professor Greg Niemeyer (UC Berkeley) at the Center for New 
 Media.\n\n101010 Panelists include: \n* Dr. Heather Horst, UC Humanities 
 Research Institute, UC Irvine\n* Gabriella Wilson, KPFA News Analyst\n*
