Welcome to the Vismedia website!
This archive provides authentic videos, news articles, research overviews and more from an amazing period in media tech history (2016-2021). The exploration of emerging surveillance technologies such as drones, smart phones, and 360 cameras was clearly ahead of its time. ViSmedia was inspired by EU´s responsible research and innovation framework (RRI), with a special focus on dialogue and educational interdisciplinarity. The project included numerous playful activities, for instance critical scenario-building and student-focused research conferences. Our final video experiment was the Visual Futures of the Media conference, disseminated during the covid outbreak. It is all in here. Enjoy!
THE VISMEDIA PROJECT
We investigate how the adoption and adaptation of visual surveillance technologies in the news media might be optimized in ways that incorporate and integrate aspects of societal responsibility in quality journalism.
