About this listen

In the first episode of the series Fergal Lenehan and Luisa Conti, from the Centre for Digital Interculturality Studies, talk to Ethan Zuckerman. Ethan is a world-recognized expert in the field of the digital and is a professor at the Manning College of Information and Computer Sciences at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, USA. He has published widely and his book, Rewire: Digital Cosmopolitans in the Age of Connection, originally from 2013, has been highly influential among those who wish to see more connection between the scholarly areas of Internet Studies and Intercultural Communications. The conversation engages with Ethan’s recent work on digital archives and the topic of random archiving, the different uses of the platforms YouTube and TikTok in different cultural contexts, and concludes with a discussion on the future of the Internet as Fergal asks Ethan to re-visit his arguments from 2013 for the present time.
