Media studies has opened up new avenues of research across fields, 
helping to reframe the objects, sites, and histories of scholarly 
inquiry, providing a way to challenge accepted historical layers of 
social and technical arrangements. This symposium draws together 
critical intersections with media, applying postcolonial and feminist 
theories to contextualize and frame the mediated landscape, both past 
and present. Drawing from a variety of entangled theories and 
methodologies, authors engage with a variety of approaches, providing 
new insights for scholars from an array of backgrounds. This symposium 
also engages media itself through a media archaeological approach, 
reframing and interrogating our media so as to shed new understanding to 
our hyper-mediated world.

Please join us for an engaging symposium, free and open to the public.
