Workshop on History of Digital Media and Digital Media Historiography, organised by the ECREA Communication History Section and co-sponsored by the ICA Communication History Division, to be held at the C²DH.

This workshop, to be held from 2 to 4 February 2022 at the C²DH, and which is organised by the ECREA Communication History Section and co-sponsored by the ICA Communication History Division, is related to History of Digital Media and Digital Media Historiography.

For this workshop, the ECREA Communication History Section called for scholarly presentations that shed light on changes and continuities in the process of digitalisation, both now and in the past, or that explore historical practices, with the aim of providing a new perspective on media and communication studies and historiography in the digital age.

Our confirmed keynote speakers are:

  • Claude Mussou (National Audiovisual Institute (INA), France) on the INA’s digitized and “augmented” archive
  • Niels Brügger (Aarhus University, Denmark) on “Media Events: Dayan & Katz Revisited in the Light of Digital Media”

The local host (C²DH) will also organise some hands-on sessions related to digital tools and methods during the workshop, on topics such as digitised press, Zotero, etc.
