Conspiracy Theories and Semiotics of the Web.
This year's "Meetings on Meaning", the semiotic conferences organized by the CIRCe (Interdepartmental Center of Research on Communication) and held at the University of Turin, are dedicated to conspiracy theories.

The record of all the meetings already held are available (in HD!) on the Lexia (International Journal of Semiotics) channel on youtube. Most of them are in Italian, but there is some in English too, so it's worth to check...
In any case, here you can find my lecture, dedicated to conspiracy theories in the periphery of the semiosphere of the web (i.e. all those sites like 4chan and 8chan) and a case study on the GamerGate controversy. I hope you enjoy it!
