Harwood will discuss his new work Coal Fired Computers, which is showing at the Discovery Museum, and the crisis of power in a modern globalised economy. Closely associated with the formation of social software and software art, he received the Tate’s first online commission and won the 2009 Transmediale Festival award for his social telephony work Tantalum Memorial, a memorial to the Coltan Wars in the Congo.
