Beschreibung

This seminar in American Cultural Studies focuses on the rapidly evolving understanding of the popular in the medial contexts marked by digitization and digitalization. Drawing on theoretical and analytical material across disciplines, such as, media studies, media industries studies, and digital narratology, we will take up popular cultural forms from the digital domains, while examining their structural affordances as well as their social and political valences.
In order to take and enjoy this class, you should be willing to read, analyze, and discuss theoretical and analytical texts. As part of your assigned work in this seminar, all the course participants would need to carefully prepare the reading(s) allotted for a session, develop points of discussion, and occasionally respond to the reading(s) via annotations on Google Docs. Our weekly, in-person meetings will be assisted by expert groups/session presenters.
