Home Movies Project: Changing platforms of ritualized memory practices. The cultural dynamics of home movies

    Press/Media: ResearchPopular

    Description

    This NWO-funded project addresses a number of questions dealing with the complex interrelationship between technology, specific user generations and spaces or places of cultural memory production in home movie making and screening. More concretely we are interested in the question how changing technologies of cultural production (film, video or digital camera) have shaped new practices and rituals of memory staging (screening of the films in domestic of public venues) and thereby initiated processes of (re)negotiating user generations and group identities. This research is a collaborative effort of the University of groningen with maastricht university and the University of luxembourg.
