The relationship among vision, memory, and media is of burgeoning interest to the arts, cultural studies, and sciences. This comprehensive introduction to the subject couples recent scientific research on memory with a broad cultural discussion about vision and media in the technological age. It features contributions by—and interviews with—artists and leading experts, among them Ali Hossaini, Lindsay Seers, media ecology expert Andrew Hoskins, and American cultural critic Norman Klein, illustrated by the works of contemporary artists whose practice exemplifies this dynamic. Clear, comprehensive, and up-to-date, Vision, Memory and Media presents the latest scientific and theoretical debates relating to memory studies, vision, and media.
Digital Memory Studies

Digital media, networks and archives reimagine and revitalize individual, social and cultural memory but they also ensnare it, bringing it under new forms of control. Understanding these paradoxical conditions of remembering and forgetting through today’s technologies needs bold interdisciplinary interventions. Digital Memory Studies seizes this challenge and pioneers an agenda that interrogates concepts, theories and histories of media and memory studies, to map a holistic vision for the study of the digital remaking of memory. Through the lenses of connectivity, archaeology, economy, and archive, contributors illuminate the uses and abuses of the digital past via an array of media and topics, including television, videogames and social media, and memory institutions, network politics and the digital afterlife.
