Cybertalk

Synopsis: As we find ourselves in a digital age which is changing the way we talk, we expect new technologies to connect us across ever greater distances and to relay data with ever-increasing speed. The way we talk is changing who we are, and we don’t know how. In 1997 Microsoft gave computers and online access to residents of a whole street in London. The street could be a prototype of all of us. But do we want the new connections, the new speed and the new communities that are opened up? And what do we want them for?

Notes: NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
