  Summer School - Thought

  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.

  Vision in movement: configurations of time

  Le Réseau international d'histoire de l'art, en collaboration avec le master « Aisthesis. Arts et littératures » (universtité de Augsburg, université Ludwig Maximilian de Munich, université de Ratisbonne et université catholique de Eichstätt-Ingolstadt) organise, du 30 au 4 octobre 2013, un atelier de recherches sur le thème Vision en mouvement : configurations du temps. Pour traiter de la temporalité inscrite dans l'image, l'histoire de l'art a longtemps fixé son attention sur la narration propre à la peinture ou à la sculpture d'histoire. Cet atelier de recherche souhaite aborder la question différemment. Plutôt que de traiter des œuvres comme synthèses d'une narration, il entend viser les manières par lesquelles l'art configure le temps.
