The History of Information, with Chris Haughton

  • Summary

  • Chris Haughton is a designer, illustrator and children's book author, whose bold imagery is known for lighting up the pages of books such as Well Done, Mummy Penguin, and Don't Worry, Little Crab. But Haughton has a healthy enthusiasm for real-world innovation, which sits side by side with his artistic output. His latest book is thinking about some of those bigger ideas. It’s called The History of Information. It looks at the ways information has been cultivated, shared, and undermined throughout history and how its spread is often intrinsically linked to visual communication. Joining him to discuss the book is Carl Miller, the technology researcher, co-founder the Centre for the Analysis of Social Media at Demos, and host of crime podcast Kill List.
