DAMMA: Digital Archive of Memorialization of Mass Atrocities (Group)

There is an urgent need to understand how digital technology transforms the preservation/erasure of individual and collective memories of mass atrocities given the rapid growth of memorial activities online, but also the rise of denialism and misinformation associated with the past suffering. This workshop brings together academics and heritage practitioners to advance research and knowledge concerning online mass atrocity memorial practices.

The Taste of the Algorithm

This is what the Taste of the Algorithm working group is dedicated to: to examine the impact of algorithmic censorship of images on our visual culture—and to propose solutions across a wide range of fields. Our group’s artist will create works about censorship for social media: we’re curious how long those will last.
