DESCRIPTION:Join us as the NYC Luddites share how they organized the Summer of Ludd 
 (SoL) in June – July of 2026: 8 days, 150 events, free lunch for 250 
 people a day, no permits, in a historic heatwave, all organized without 
 social media! SoL included a plurality of events, from radical puppet 
 theater, to teach-ins on Data Center resistance, to jamborees, and 
 workshops for divesting from Big Tech. \n\nCome learn about how they did 
 this and how the Luddite critique can help us make sense of the AI bubble, 
 alienation, and the surveillance state. This movement is historically 
 grounded in the Luddites of the 1810’s who resisted “machines hurtful 
 to commonality, which tear unduly at the social fabric.” As tech 
 billionaires tear at the social fabric around us, Luddites ask, “how can 
 we rebuild it?” \n\nThis presentation will include: organizing tactics 
 for reclaiming public space, structures for large-scale projects, digital 
 security + organizing without relying on platforms, tactical playfulness, 
 and base-building for a popular movement against Big Tech. \n\nThis event 
 is FREE, PUBLIC, & PARTICIPATORY! \n\nAs we like to say in NYC The Event is 
 the Medium! Summer of Ludd has been covered in publications such as Wired, 
 The Economist, and 404 Media.\n
