  Scaling. What happens when we scale things up or down?

  Princeton-Weimar Summer School for Media Studies 2018

  The 2018 session will be devoted to the investigation of scale and scaling as operative concepts for the analysis of media. What happens when we scale? Does anything really change? Can scaling ever impact the inner blueprint of an object? Are there laws of scaling? Or does scaling resist any attempt at calculability, such that, to investigate it, we can only ever look at individual events of scaling? As a media practice, scaling is widely used. But, in contrast to the ubiquity of operations, scaling is hardly ever viewed on its own terms as a basic concept of media analysis. The Princeton-Weimar Summer School for Media Studies 2018 will attempt to map out approaches to scaling as a basic media-analytical tool.

  Memory and the making of knowledge in the Early Modern world

  While memory is an established sub-field within these disciplines, its themes and sources have led to an over-representation of the ancient and modern worlds, meaning that the early modern era has been comparatively neglected. The School seeks not merely to redress this imbalance, but also to explore how studies of memory and early modernity might shape one another in the future. Participants in the Summer School, which will take place between 18 and 22 September 2017, will have the opportunity to discuss the most recent research presented by leading scholars in the field, to learn or refine skills in workshops that focus on the media and techniques of memory, and to present their own work to a uniquely qualified and supportive international peer group.

  Futurs planétaires

  In the face of the current ecological crisis, how shall we rethink concepts and practices of environment, ecology, difference, and technology to envision and create a more just, sustainable, and diverse planet? The combined histories of colonialism, extraction industries, energy, as well as innovation in design, architecture, literature and technology offer a lens by which to examine how contemporary techno-scientific societies envision planetary futures. Site visits exploring resource extraction, colonialism in urban policy and planning, and speculative architectural design will be accompanied by an analysis of science fiction, science technology, speculative design and ethnography, as well as life and earth sciences.

  La théorie littéraire aujourd’hui

  Méthodes et enjeux

  L'université d’été a pour but d’offrir, aux participants, par le biais de conférences, d’ateliers, de workshops, de séminaires, d’exercices pratiques, de « performances », un vaste panorama de ce qui fait courir, et agir, nos théoriciens et nos méthodologues d’aujourd’hui. Quelles pratiques se profilent ? Comment choisir ses outils et selon quels critères ? Il s’agit d’aider les uns et les autres à mieux trouver leur chemin dans le fascinant paysage de la recherche littéraire dans tous ses aspects. La théorie, donc, servira ici à enrichir, et à perfectionner la pratique.
