Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

OBJECTIVES: We want to try to understand where/when/how/why the new comes into being in the media industry and where/when/how/why it becomes established/viral/successful.

CONTENTS: We examine media innovations of the past, try to identify a possible historical pattern and venture a look into the future. The keywords are: automation of devices and intellectual production in the 20th/21st century after the automation of material goods production from the 18th/19th century onwards, algorithmization, datafication, mobilization, "smartification" and so on. – Above all, of course, we are currently witnessing the historically unique process of digitization.

METHOD: Own lecture; guest lectures from media scientists and practitioners; literature PDFs and recommended videos/documentations on Moodle; voluntary e-learning tasks to acquire bonus points on Moodle
