Museum Digitisations and Emerging Curatorial Agencies Online - Vikings in the Digital Age (Paperback, 1st ed. 2022): Bodil... Museum Digitisations and Emerging Curatorial Agencies Online - Vikings in the Digital Age (Paperback, 1st ed. 2022)
Bodil Axelsson, Fiona R. Cameron, Katherine Hauptman, Sheenagh Pietrobruno
R1,378 Discovery Miles 13 780 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

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.

Salsa and Its Transnational Moves (Hardcover): Sheenagh Pietrobruno Salsa and Its Transnational Moves (Hardcover)
Sheenagh Pietrobruno
R3,686 Discovery Miles 36 860 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Salsa and Its Transnational Moves presents a brilliant critical analysis of salsa dancing in a major North American city. Drawing from a vast number of disciplines, author Sheenagh Pietrobruno focuses on the tension between the status of dance as a bodily expression of identity and its function as a cultural commodity within the economic life of modern day cities. This engaging work investigates the transnational movements of salsa by exploring the circulation of salsa within the Montreal dance scene, nourished by the continuous flow of a people, and examining the commodification of the Latino culture. Pietrobruno's analysis is singular in highlighting how the migration of a people and a dance represent displacements that are not always homologous. At the core of this work, Pietrobruno offers an extensive and intricate ethnography of the institutions and individuals involved in shaping the Montreal salsa scene that will appeal to academics and general audiences alike, who are interested in the study of anthropology, popular music, dance, gender, ethnicity, and culture.
