DESCRIPTION:\n	This episode of Theorizing the Web Presents offers two explo
 rations of the metaphors that help us grasp the more intangible aspects of
  corporate technology. In 'Ordering the (anti)social: How the advertising 
 industry orders your mediated experience\,' Elinor Carmi examines the web 
 standardization process in the European Union in the early 2000s and shows
  how the digital advertising industry and tech companies standardized diff
 erent categories of behaviour. Next\, in 'Can We Call A Startup A 'Cult'?\
 ,” Adam Willems cautions against using the framework of “cults” to charact
 erize startup culture\, arguing for an approach that connects startups’ be
 liefs and practices to those of larger historical and economic trends. The
  discussions will be moderated by Dr. Apryl Williams\, followed by an audi
 ence Q&amp\;A. \n\nJoin the conversation. \n\n	\n\n\n	About the speakers:
