Broadcasting health and disease
Bodies, markets and television, 1950s-1980s
In the television age, health and the body have been broadcasted in many ways: in short health education films, school television, professional training materials, TV ads, documentaries, reality TV shows and news, as well as stand-alone videos distributed to specific audiences. This three-day conference proposes an exploration of how television formats have influenced and staged bodies, health and healthy practices from local, regional, national and international perspectives, and how these TV programmes spread the conviction that viewers could and should invest in their health and shape their own body.

Broadcasting health and disease
Bodies, markets and television, 1950s-1980s
The three-day conference aims to investigate how television programmes in their multiplicity approached issues like medical progress and its limits, healthy behaviour or new forms of exercise by adapting them to TV formats and programming...The conference seeks to analyse how television and its evolving formats expressed and staged bodies, health and fitness from local, regional, national and international perspectives. How spectators were invited not only to be TV consuming audiences, but how shows and TV set-ups integrated and sometimes pretended to transform the viewer into a participant of the show. TV programmes spread the conviction that subjects had the ability to shape their own body.

Music-Records-Radio in French-Speaking Countries (1900-1950)
In the space of a few decades, from 1900 to 1950, musicians’ and listeners’ relationship to music was transformed with the advent of records and then the radio. The conference seeks to provide researchers an opportunity to explore collectively the relationship between music, records, and the radio by examining the following issues: the interactions between different forms of media and intermedial transfer; the ways in which composers and performers adapted to the new means of dissemination; and the social, economic, and aesthetic consequences on musical activity with the arrival of records and the radio. Restricting the context to French-speaking countries will make it possible to establish comparisons as well as connections between various record “markets” and the radio networks that developed during the period.

Digital technologies and power relations in the 20th-21st centuries
À la différence des acteurs individuels et collectifs, les développements technologiques sont souvent considérés comme neutres dans leurs intentions comme dans leurs effets. Ce panel questionne ce parti pris, en s’appuyant sur l'histoire récente des technologies numériques et de l'internet. Ce panel prend pour objet le pouvoir des algorithmes, à savoir le rôle des technologies numériques dans les rapports de pouvoir de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle jusqu'à aujourd'hui. En particulier, ce panel recherche des cas d'étude concrets qui montrent comment le développement ou la mise en application de technologies numériques ont modifié les rapports de force établis.
