Debt or Democracy

category dublin | education | event notice author Sunday October 16, 2011 16:34author by Seanán Kerr - IDIPauthor email praxis at gradcam dot ie Report this post to the editors

A talk with David Malone (economics blogger Golem XIV)

The Praxis and Pedagogy group at GradCAM and the Irish Debt Info-graphic Project (IDIP) present: Debt or Democracy? With David Malone (aka Golem XIV) Friday, October 21st, 6 - 8pm Harry Clarke Lecture Theatre, National College of Art and Design, Dublin 8

Author and documentary filmmaker David Malone's BBC documentary High Anxieties - The Mathematics of Chaos (2008) was the first film to be made about the financial crisis, accurately anticipating the problems that were to unfold in the economy. In 2008 Malone began commenting on the financial pages of the Guardian's website about the credit-crunch and the ensuing financial crisis under the pseudonym Golem XIV, the name of a military supercomputer in a novel by the same name by Polish science-fiction writer Stanislaw Lem. Malone became a fierce critic of the bank bailouts, arguing that they would lead to huge cuts in public spending. In November 2010 his highly acclaimed book about the crisis The Debt Generation was published in the UK by Lever Press. "In The Debt Generation, David Malone comes to a similar conclusion as I came to making Inside Job: that the financial system, as presently constituted, isn't just a danger to our economy, but to our very democracy." - Charles ferguson, directer of Inside Job (2010) On October 21st, Malone will be joined by a diverse panel at NCAD, including members from IDIP (Irish Debt Info-graphic Project), to analyse the current economic situation, focussing on the question: what is worth knowing? This discussion is part of the IDIP research programme, which is developing an online graphic history of the debt crisis in Ireland.
