Doing experimental media archaeology

@C2DH Season 1 Episode 1

The DEMA (“Doing Experimental Media Archaeology”) project studies the potential of hands-on experimentation as a means of better understanding and experiencing the materiality and use practices of old media technologies.

Musician Aleksander Kolkowski, media historian Tim van der Heijden and C²DH Director Andreas Fickers spoke to Hanna Siemaszko, the producer of the SciLux podcast on science in Luxembourg, about their experiences and their thoughts on experimental media archaeology as a practical and sensorial approach to media historiography.

This podcast was recorded in connection with the 2022 Annual Report of the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH), a University of Luxembourg research centre.
