This open access book explores the multiple forms of curatorial
agencies that develop when museum collection digitisations,
narratives and new research findings circulate online. Focusing on
Viking Age objects, it tracks the effects of antagonistic debates
on discussion forums and the consequences of search engines,
personalisation, and machine learning on American-based online
platforms. Furthermore, it considers eco-systemic processes
comprising computation, rare-earth minerals, electrical currents
and data centres and cables as novel forms of curatorial actions.
Thus, it explores curatorial agency as social constructivist,
semiotic, algorithmic, and material. This book is of interest to
scholars and students in the fields of museum studies, cultural
heritage and media studies. It also appeals to museum practitioners
concerned with curatorial innovation at the intersection of
humanist interpretations and new materialist and more-than-human
frameworks.
