On June 14, specialists will ponder the status of "intellectual RuNet publications" at a round table in Moscow's Central House of the Artist (ЦДХ). LJ user sardv attended us to the event, which is titled The Future Online: Retro-Utopia, Distopia and Defamiliarisation Into Offline (did I translate all of that correctly?). The meeting is announced in the blog of off-university - a non-academic, countermedia project striving to reform humanities teaching in Russia.Although off-university's announcement makes me regret that I'm not in Moscow at the time, the text does appear slightly dense and abstract. Theses include the proposition that web communities are an "illusory image of multiplicity"; the contention that the format of many intellectual online publications is motivated by "retro-utopian" strivings, rooted in Enlightenment thought, more than the makers may acknowledge; and the hypothesis that  the web confronts us with a "machine which condensates space and destructs the ecstatics of time" - one which users need to leave for offline reality in order to "enter the future."Tasty food for thought, that much is sure. But what I long for, as a relative outsider, is additional concrete details: which sites did the organizers have in mind when devising their incentives for debate? Who will participate in the round table? And is the time at which the session commences known? Sardv, perhaps you are the one to let us know? If so, please feel free to speak up in a comment - and don't hesitate to do so in Russian, if you prefer that. It would be wonderful to hear more.ER
