The act of whistleblowing is a concrete process able to reveal hidden facts, misconducts and wrongdoings of institutions and corporations, producing awareness about social, political and technological matters, informing about the reality we live in. Following a practice-based research approach, this workshop aims to question what we can collectively offer to encourage a critical debate on the effects of whistleblowing in society, as well as to generate experimental ways of cultural production within the post-digital scenario. The methodology behind the development of the conference and community programme of the Disruption Network Lab , and how they work to make sensitive subjects and networks accessible to a larger public will also be shared in the workshop.
