The new book “Digital Modernity. Why We Need to Think Historically About the Digital Age” by James Smithies goes on top of my reading list www.taylorfrancis.com/books/oa-mon... !

Today my colleague @tillmannohm.bsky.social and I will start teaching our very first joint course Analysing Digital Images as part of the @dhssfau.bsky.social! We will cover interconnections of digitality and visual culture, and how all that can be studied in today's world. I'm excited!

Every time I prepare for a new course, I’m amazed by how much you actually LEARN when you think about how to TEACH something. I’m excited to launch my ‘Digital Objects and Society’ course—and to learn even more alongside my students!

Together with colleagues at @dhssfau.bsky.social we are preparing the start of the semester! What an exciting lineup of courses -- I would love to attend all of them! www.dhss.phil.fau.de/2026/03/23/s...
