How Media Count 2 Symposium

How Media Count (HMC) international symposium on January 13/14, 2025, hosted by the Digital Humanities and Social Engagement Cluster at Dartmouth.

1/14/2025
9:00 am – 3:30 pm
Hanover Inn - Hayward Room
Intended Audience(s): Public
Categories: Conferences, Lectures & Seminars

As media and information theorists, historians, musicians, visual artists, we have been working to understand how counting —aggregating, numbering, calculating, quantifying— has been a core social, political, and aesthetic activity of media, across many domains, and through long histories. How, we want to know, do certain technologies—machines that count—come to count as “media,” while others are excluded, occluded, or made minor?

Hosted by Jacqueline Wernimont (FMS, DHSE), our HMC2 visiting faculty/artist fellows are David Cecchetto (York University), Simone Jones (Ontario College of Art & Design University), Jennifer Rhee (Virginia Commonwealth University), and Scott Richmond (University of Toronto), with a possible special guest to be announced later. 

Tuesday’s symposium will be held in the Hayward Room at the Hanover Inn, starting at 9 a.m. and ending by 3:30 p.m. If you would like to access talk recordings after the event, please register here.
