The un-archive, by Siegfried Zielinski

The un-archive, in the words of Zielinski, media archaelogist:

“Le temps est compté. Nous devons enfin commencer à prendre au sérieux les objectivations volumineuses du passé pour les rendre exploitables par le futur. Le terme >archos< nest pas seulement lorigine, mais aussi, encore et toujours, le guide. L’idée de l’an-archive contient celle de continuer passionnément à collectionner et à découvrir sans savoir où tout cela nous mène. »

Digital culture/Mobile communication – IT University of Copenhagen

The Digital Culture and Mobile Communication Group has well founded insight into the social, political and cultural dynamics of mediated technology. We focus on study of digital culture, digital media, mediated interpersonal communication and the way we use a variety of digital media in our everyday lives for social, practical and expressive purposes. Mobile communication and online media, in both national and international contexts, addressing the interplay of local and global phenomena is one of the key research areas.
