Course content
This course is about digital changes and digitalization processes. The course addresses case studies of selected technologies (eg photography,
encyclopedia, learning- and analysis tools), exploring the link of these technologies' historical analog roots and contemporary mediated practices. The purpose is to develop critical perspectives on what this digitalization implies - and does not imply.
This will further provide basis for a discussion about how digitalization contributes to new questions, new issues and new ways of exploring things in humanities. This is done through thematic organized project work.
