Cold War Computing: Balkan Cyberia

Behind the Iron Curtain during the Cold War, Bulgaria was a remarkable hub of innovation in electronics and computing. In an age defined by Silicon Valley and Western narratives of progress, historian Victor Petrov upends assumptions about computing in the Eastern bloc to tell a high-stakes tale of secret espionage networks, utopian visions of a cybernetic future, and remarkable technocratic reform.

Join us for a fascinating presentation and book talk by the author of Balkan Cyberia, a CHM Book Prize winner.
