Media Archaeology and New Media Studies

A talk by CoDE Director Dr Jussi Parikka

Date: Wednesday 9 February 2011
Time: 17:00 - 18:30
Room: Helmore 251, Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge

This talk introduced media archaeology not only as a textual method, but also as a practical engagement with contemporary technical media cultures. Dr Parikka discussed its developing relations with new fields such as software studies, and showed how its agendas must develop from reliance on visual media to more varied modalities of media sensation and logic.

Parikka's volume Media Archaeology (co-edited with Erkki Huhtamo) is forthcoming from University of California Press in Spring 2011, and Parikka's new project on media archaeology will be published by Polity Press in 2012. Please also visit Parikka's media archaeology-themed blog Cartographies of Media Archaeology for further information.

This talk was part of the Faculty of Arts, Law and Social Sciences' research seminar series for 2010/11.
