Pandaemonium Architecture 6.0

In this course

Tuters is a scholar studying how conspiracy theories and collaborative narrative practices emerge and spread across digital platforms, particularly examining QAnon's origins in 4chan culture. Their work appears in the course materials as a foundational source on QAnon's genealogy and mechanics, providing critical analysis of how internet communities can collectively generate and propagate unfalsifiable narratives. This research matters to Pandaemonium Architecture because it demonstrates how algorithmic systems, participatory online spaces, and networked cognition can produce both creative and destructive emergent behaviors.
