New Media: Critical Interventions
eikones Workshop on New Media: Wednesday, December 11 / 3 - 7.30 pm. Forum eikones, Rheinsprung 11, Basel.
By the time scholarly inquiry learns to adequately describe the phenomena of new media, these are often no longer new. Yet, closer examination reveals that contemporary technologies themselves rapidly become anachronistic, compelling us to look both backward and forward in time.
This workshop aims to engage with questions posed by new or once-new media from a transdisciplinary perspective, bringing together art historians, media scholars and philosophers to consider both the disciplinary investment in new media, as well as specific themes, practices, and examples.
Speakers:
Estelle Blaschke (University of Basel)
Massimo Leone (University of Turin)
Lior Levy (University of Haifa)
Aïcha Revellat (eikones, Basel)
