[Commlist] New Book - Culture, Technology and the Image

Intellect is pleased to announce that /*Culture, Technology and the 
Image: *//*Techniques of Engaging with Visual Culture*/ 
<https://www.intellectbooks.com/culture-technology-and-the-image>**edited 
by Jeremy Pilcheris now available.

/Culture, Technology and the Image/ explores the technologies deployed 
when images are archived, accessed and distributed. The chapters discuss 
the ways in which habits and techniques used in learning and 
communicating knowledge about images are affected by technological 
developments. The volume discusses a wide range of issues, including 
access and participation; research, pedagogy and teaching; curation and 
documentation; circulation and re-use; and conservation and preservation.

The book illustrates how knowledge about images is intertwined with the 
methods that are used to store, retrieve and analyse those images and 
the information associated with them. Focusing on the implications of 
technology for processes and practices brings into view the permeable 
nature of boundaries between such disciplines as art history, media 
studies, museum studies and archiving. As such, this text will appeal to 
a broad academic audience, including art historians interested in the 
digital; media studies scholars; digital humanities scholars interested 
in expanding beyond textual scholarship; as well as new students in any 
of these fields.
