New book Campus Medius: Digital Mapping in Cultural and Media Studies,
by Simon Ganahl
DOI: https://doi.org/10.14361/9783839456019

Abstract: Campus Medius (campusmedius.net) explores and expands the possibilities of digital cartography in cultural and media studies. Simon Ganahl documents the development of the project from a historical case study to a mapping platform. Based on the question of what a media experience is, the concepts of the apparatus (dispositif) and the actor-network are translated into a data model. A time-space of twenty-four hours in Vienna in May 1933, marked by a so-called "Turks Deliverance Celebration" (Türkenbefreiungsfeier), serves as an empirical laboratory. This Austrofascist rally is mapped from multiple perspectives and woven into media-historical networks, spanning from the seventeenth century up to the present day.

The ebook is already available open access, the print version will appear in May. On June 8, from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. (UTC+2), there will be a (German) book presentation with livestream at the University of Vienna: https://bibliothek.univie.ac.at/events/014759.html
