Zusatztext

This book investigates the theoretical effects of the digital turn in Media and Performing Arts Studies, reframing the boundaries between live and mediate experience, broadening the traditional objects of study in a processual-relational perspective, and introducing new sources, models and methodologies for research, teaching, and dissemination within the common conceptual and practical framework of the Digital Humanities.
