Greek and Roman Painting and the Digital Humanities

Greek and Roman Painting and the Digital Humanities

This volume is a groundbreaking discussion of the role of digital media in research on ancient painting and a deep reflection on the effectiveness of digital media in opening the field to new audiences. The study of classical art always oscillates between archaeology and classics between the study of ancient texts and archaeological material. For this reason it is often difficult to collect all the data to have access to both types of information on an equal basis. The increasing development of digital collections and databases dedicated to both archaeological material and ancient texts is a direct response to this problem. The book’s central theme is the role of the digital humanities especially digital collection s such as the Digital Milliet in the study of ancient Greek and Roman painting. Part 1 focuses on the transition between the original print version of the Recueil Milliet and its digital incarnation. Part 2 addresses the application of digital tools to the analysis of ancient art. Part 3 focuses on ancient wall painting. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history classics archaeology and digital humanities. | Greek and Roman Painting and the Digital Humanities

Digital Capitalism and New Institutionalism

Digital Capitalism and New Institutionalism

Modern institutional economics was created to study the institutions of pre-digital economies and is based on reductionist approaches. But digital capitalism is producing institutions of unprecedented complexity. This book argues therefore that not only the economic institutions themselves but also the theoretical foundations for studying those institutions must now be adapted to digital capitalism. The book focuses on the institutional complexity of digital capitalism developing an interdisciplinary framework which brings together cutting-edge theoretical approaches from philosophy (first of all object-oriented ontology) sociology (especially actor–network theory) evolutionary biology and cognitive science. In particular the book outlines a new approach to the study of institutional evolution based on extended evolutionary synthesis – a new paradigm in evolutionary biology which is now replacing neo-Darwinism. The book develops an enactivist notion of extended cognition and cognitive institutions rejecting the individualistic and mechanistic understanding of economic rationality in digital environments. The author experiments with new philosophical approaches to investigate institutional complexity for example the ideas of the flat ontology and the assemblage theory. The flat ontology approach is applied to the study of human–robot institutions as well as to thinking about post-anthropocentric institutional design. Assemblage thinking allows for a new (much less idealistic) look at blockchain and smart cities. Blockchain as digital institutional technology is considered in the book not from the viewpoint of minimizing transaction costs (as is customary in the modern institutional economics) but by using the theory of transaction value which focuses on improving the quality of digital transactions. The book includes a wide range of examples ranging from metaverses cryptocurrencies and big data to robot rules smart contracts and machine learning algorithms. Written for researchers in institutional economics and other social sciences this interdisciplinary book is essential reading for anyone interested in the interplay of institutional and digital change. | Digital Capitalism and New Institutionalism

Digital Storytelling and Ethics Collaborative Creation and Facilitation

Digital Storytelling and Ethics Collaborative Creation and Facilitation

Digital Storytelling and Ethics: Collaborative Creation and Facilitation provides a method for analyzing digital storytelling practices that focuses on the rhetorical dialogic co-productive creative storymaking space rather than the finished stories or the technologies. Looking through a new media lens Amanda Hill situates the digital storytelling genre and writing practice as a co-creative media process created between writers storytellers educators/facilitators institutions and the audience and discusses the inter-relationships within the collaborative writing workshop as well as in those found in the dissemination of the final digital stories. Digital Storytelling and Ethics provides a reflexive look at the responsibility of the facilitator in co-creative digital storytelling writing spaces and makes use of diverse international case studies as examples. Hill shows that writing educators/facilitators should interpret their roles within the collaborative creation process. This will ensure that responsible facilitation practices based in witnessing guide the storytelling process and create an environment that treats participants as subjects with the ability to respond to the world. This innovative book is an essential read for collaborative digital writers and facilitators. | Digital Storytelling and Ethics Collaborative Creation and Facilitation

Digital Space and Embodiment in Contemporary Cinema Screening Composite Spaces

Digital Space and Embodiment in Contemporary Cinema Screening Composite Spaces

Digital Space and Embodiment in Contemporary Cinema examines how contemporary cinema has represented and engaged with the experience of simultaneously inhabiting digital and material spaces (i. e. composite spaces) in the context of the growing ubiquitousness of digital media and culture. Bringing together a range of key cinematic texts the book examines how these films represent composite space by depicting—often subtly and without explicit reference to technology—what it feels like to live in a world of ubiquitous digital media. The book explores composite spaces through the striking use of elements like colour symbolic graphics and music and covers topics like: music as mediator between levels of experience/perception in visionary films such as Sucker Punch (2011) and Spring Breakers (2012); digital colour as an interface in films including Under the Skin (2013); the integration of digital graphical elements drawn from game spaces into material spaces in films such as Scott Pilgrim vs The World (2010) and Nerve (2016); and films that take place on a computer screen including 2020’s widely discussed Zoom-produced pandemic horror film Host. Through the close analysis of these films the book offers fresh perspectives on conceptual issues of embodiment digital agency and subjectivity. This book is a valuable resource for advanced undergraduates postgraduates and scholars in the fields of film studies digital aesthetics and film theory digital culture and digital media. | Digital Space and Embodiment in Contemporary Cinema Screening Composite Spaces

Digital Humanities and Laboratories Perspectives on Knowledge Infrastructure and Culture

Digital Humanities and Laboratories Perspectives on Knowledge Infrastructure and Culture

Digital Humanities and Laboratories explores laboratories dedicated to the study of digital humanities (DH) in a global context and contributes to the expanding body of knowledge about situated DH knowledge production. Including a foreword by David Berry and contributions from a diverse international range of scholars and practitioners this volume examines the ways laboratories of all kinds contribute to digital research and pedagogy. Acknowledging that they are emerging amid varied cultural and scientific traditions the volume considers how they lead to the specification of digital humanities and how a locally situated knowledge production is embedded in the global infrastructure system. As a whole the book consolidates the discussion on the role of the laboratory in DH and brings digital humanists into the interdisciplinary debate concerning the notion of a laboratory as a critical site in the generation of experimental knowledge. Positioning the discussion in relation to ongoing debates in DH the volume argues that laboratory studies are in an excellent position to capitalize on the theories and knowledge developed in the DH field and open up new research inquiries. Digital Humanities and Laboratories clearly demonstrates that the laboratory is a key site for theoretical and critical analyses of digital humanities and will thus be of interest to scholars students and practitioners engaged in the study of DH culture media heritage and infrastructure. | Digital Humanities and Laboratories Perspectives on Knowledge Infrastructure and Culture
