+Title: The User Condition 01
+Date: 2021-03-23
+Category: event
+Slug: usercond01
+lang: en
+event_start: 2021-03-23 18:00
+event_duration: 1h
+featured_image: images/the-user-condition_silvio-lorusso_2021-10.png
+
+What are the conditions for a computer user to gain agency, defined here as the ability to evade automatisms? What is the user’s horizon of autonomy within a built world made of software programmed by somebody else, when its logic is made inaccessible in the name of convenience? 
+
+In the first event of The User Condition series, Silvio Lorusso will present his micro-interactive essay about computer agency and behavior (https://theusercondition.computer/). This presentation will also be a testing ground for the fresh narrowcast setup currently being developed at Varia. Don't miss!
