Digital Icons: Studies in Russian, Eurasian and Central European New Media
Issue 4: War, Conflict and Commemoration in the Age of Digital Reproduction
guest-edited by Adi Kuntsman (University of Manchester).
http://www.digitalicons.org/
This issue of Digital Icons explores the ways in which wars and
conflicts are mediated, commemorated, reported and discussed on the
Internet as well as in other forms of new media, including mobile
phones, digital broadcasting and computer games. The issue examines the
role of new media in understanding, representing, negotiating and
remembering (or forgetting) war and terror; the status of testimony,
evidence and reportage in the age of digital reproduction; practices of
memory in relation to new information and communication technologies;
and structures of feeling that operate in on-line reports and debates
around military operations and human suffering.
