Återkopplingar [Feedback] is a recent collection on media history and archeology edited by scholars from the universities in Lund and Umeå.
“Det bedrivs alltför lite mediehistorisk forskning i Sverige. Mediehistoria kan – och bör – skrivas på många olika sätt. En ambition inom den kulturhistoriska medieforskning som presenteras i den kommande boken, Återkopplingar, är att genom ett breddat mediebegrepp och historisk sensibilitet uppdatera mediestudiet. Förnyelsen sker inte sällan i skärningspunkten mellan den ofta teknikdeterministiska mediearkeologin och den historiskt lika anspråksfulla som problematiska medialiseringsteorin.
I denna bok presenteras 19 mediehistoriska texter som behandlar medieformer som skrivbord, papper, affischer, kassetter, fisheye linser, radio, telegraf, film, smarta telefoner, litografier, dagstidningar, mikrofilm, begagna de mp3-filer, krigsbyten, biblioteksbyggnader och ölkrus. I boken presenteras en rad samtida perspektiv på förflutna medier – allt i form av en icke-linjär växelverkan mellan nu och då – därav titeln: Återkopplingar.”

Comments (4)OASE Journal for Architecture, Nos. 1–90 (1981-2013) [Dutch/English]
Filed under journal | Tags: · architecture, city, design, history of architecture, space, theory, urbanism
“OASE is an independent, international, peer-reviewed journal for architecture that brings together academic discourse and the sensibilities of design practice. OASE advocates critical reflection in which the architectural project occupies a central position, yet is understood to be embedded in a wider cultural field. Intersections and affinities with other disciplines are explored in order to gain a more profound understanding of the practice and theory of architecture and rearticulate its disciplinary limits. Published three times a year, each OASE provides a rigorous investigation of a specific theme, featuring architecture, urban design and landscape design and insisting on the discussion of the historical and theoretical aspects of contemporary issues.”
