Dear all,

We have been silent, but working on After Memory. We are still working on, among other things, curating an exhibition next year (fingers crossed) but now we want to share some news and an open call…

One year since our Symposium 

It seems unbelievable, but it's a year that we met in Karlsruhe for the Symposium AFTER MEMORY: Recalling and Foretelling Across Time, Space, and Networks! It seems an appropriate occasion to remember and, if you like, watch the videos of the Symposium. We also have some photos on the HfG Archive that, at some point, we will upload to our website (we have a really steady but sure development of the website). If you need them, write us at info@aftermemory.net, and we will share them with you.

Newsletter

We had some problems with this newsletter because of bots appears to be eager to subscribe to our newsletter, and we achieved the dubious honour of entering some banned lists. Especially if you are using Gmail, our emails are probably landing on your spam folder.

After inserting a captcha, the issue seems to be solved: If you read this and the Email comes from newsletter@aftermemory.net, everything is fine. If you get this email forwarded, check your spam folder and subscribe to our newsletter again (remember to check your spam folder for the confirmation email!)

[Open Call]

After Memory: Shifting Perceptions of Time and Temporality in the Digital Condition

Special collection ed. by Lisa Deml, Victor Fancelli Capdevila, Nathalia Lavigne and Bruno Moreschi 

We are thrilled to share our Call for contributions for a special collection of the journal Memory, Mind & Media (MMM) that explores the evolving timescapes of memory. Titled After Memory: Shifting Perceptions of Time and Temporality in the Digital Condition, this issue seeks to examine how practices of remembering and forgetting are being transformed by information overload, algorithmic narratives, ephemeral archives, and networked patterns of consumption and interaction—and what these transformations mean for how we engage with the past, live in the present, and imagine potential futures. Beyond established theories and hegemonic perspectives, we particularly encourage contributions that examine alternative, marginalised, speculative, and practice-based approaches to the dynamics shaping memory.
