Mini Seminar Constellations of Images: ‘The Grande Conversion’ in Cultural Archives 27 September 2023

The digital era has witnessed a significant transformation in the accessibility and availability of cultural content in various formats, encompassing a wide range of art forms such as visual arts, cinema, literature, music, photography, and architecture. This shift from analogue to digital, referred to as the “grande conversion” by Milad Doueihi, continues to have a profound impact on our engagement with these creative expressions. Spinning off the new book Les Devenirs numériques des patrimoines (The Digital Futures of Heritage), this event features a carefully curated series of talks drawing on a variety of disciplinary perspectives and examples, showcasing the progress and advantages of working with ever-changing technologies.

Speakers: Prof. Jeffrey Shaw, Hong Kong Baptist University Prof. Clarisse Bardiot, Rennes 2 University Prof. Daniel Foliard, Université Paris Cité Prof. Martine Beugnet, Université Paris Cité Lily Hibberd, Interdisciplinary Artist Prof. Sarah Kenderdine, EPFL Dr Susan Hazan, Digital Heritage, Israel
