BIOGRAPHY
Bart Barendregt is a professor in the Anthropology of Digital Diversity at the Leiden Institute of Cultural Anthropology and Sociology. He is the editor of Brill’s Southeast Asia Mediated book series and is currently exploring how religion and digitalization produce their own futures, how their co-existence may lead to exciting experiments but also moral dilemmas, such as is the case with Islam and artificial intelligence. He is co-editor (with Chris Hudson) of Global Imaginaries and Performance in Asia (Amsterdam University Press, 2018) and (with Andrew Weintraub) of Vamping the Stage; Voices of Asian Modernities (University of Hawaii Press, 2017)
