Sixteenth International Conference on The Image

From Democratic Aesthetics to Digital Culture

Earlier this year we attended the Sixteenth International Conference on The Image at the Sorbonne, Paris. The theme of this year’s conference was From Democratic Aesthetics to Digital Culture. 

We presented on Data Lifeboat as a tool for citizen-driven collection. Our reflections on the conference can be found on the blog. If you missed our presentation and would like to see our slides, you can view them here.
