Kim Opgenoorth, Wie Konferiert es sich digital? Über ein Onlinesymposium, Blog Zeitenblicke (17.06.2020)

Steffi de Jong, Luca Jacobs, Kim Opgenoorth, Zukunft der Objekte, Zukunft des akademischen Austauschs?, Public History Weekly (16.07.2020) 

Digital technologies open up numerous possibilities to record, edit, interlink and represent cultural artefacts. With a focus on historical collections in Cologne, the project will analyse how digital transformation changes the cultural memory of a society. What is the impact of digitisation on historical objects and what are the functions of the latter as analogue and digital representations of the past? The project consists of three consecutive modules: an evaluation of the level of digitisation of the historical collections, a symposium, and a concept for an online museum for the university collections. The project will offer an overview over the digital strategies and practices of cultural institutions in Cologne and reflect thereon in the context of debates on digital memory. For this purpose, the Historical Institute of the University of Cologne is closely cooperating with cultural institutions in the city of Cologne.
