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.

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
