Auf- und Ausbrüche
Für den Regisseur, Autor und Maler Peter Patzak (1945–2021) waren Grenzen ein zwar wahrnehmbares, immer aber auch verhandelbares und vor allem überwindbares Konstrukt. Aus einem Land kommend, in dem die Anerkennung des Films als eigenständige Kunstform lange auf sich warten ließ, suchte und fand Patzak bald Kooperations- und Arbeitsmöglichkeiten in der internationalen Filmbranche. Seine künstlerische Arbeit war von der Reflexion und Überschreitung ästhetischer Normen und von der Verschmelzung von Kunstformen geprägt. Von oben verordnete, gesellschaftliche Tabugrenzen existierten für Patzak nicht. Vielmehr forderte er die Gesellschaft hartnäckig heraus, sich unangenehmen Gegenwar...
Archive in/aus Literatur
Der literarische Nachlass macht als mediale Formation ein Verständnis des Archivarischen unabdingbar. Betrachten Kreative ihre Werkstätten selbst schon als künftige Archive? Welche Wechselspiele ergeben sich zwischen Archiv und Literatur? Und worin gründen Gattungsformen wie Archivroman, Roman-Blog oder Dokufiktion? Beiträge renommierter KulturwissenschaftlerInnen zeigen hier exemplarisch auf, wie sich Literatur und Archiv gegenseitig bedingen.
The Red Vienna Sourcebook
The current blockbuster German TV series Babylon Berlin introduces viewers to the tumultuous period in German history known as the Weimar Republic. Critics have praised the series for its relevance to the present: it shows dark populist forces undermining a fragile democracy. While Weimar Germany makes a fascinating backdrop, its story does not inspire much hope for our present-day political and cultural woes. A fascinating contrast is the Austrian capital, Vienna. After the First World War the former imperial city elected a Social Democratic majority that persisted into the 1930s. "Red Vienna" undertook large-scale experiments in public housing, hygiene, and education, while maintaining a w...

Invisible Search and Online Search Engines
Invisible Search and Online Search Engines considers the use of search engines in contemporary everyday life and the challenges this poses for media and information literacy. Looking for mediated information is mostly done online and arbitrated by the various tools and devices that people carry with them on a daily basis. Because of this, search engines have a significant impact on the structure of our lives, and personal and public memories. Haider and Sundin consider what this means for society, whilst also uniting research on information retrieval with research on how people actually look for and encounter information. Search engines are now one of society’s key infrastructures for know...
Governance, Citizenship and the New European Football Championships
Over the past decade, European football has seen tremendous changes impacting upon its international framework as well as local traditions and national institutions. Processes of Europeanization in the fields of economy and politics provided the background for transformations of the production and consumption of football on a transnational scale. In the course of such rearrangements, football tournaments like the UEFA Championship or the European Champions League turned into mega-events and media spectacles attracting ever-growing audiences. The experience of participating in these events offers some of the very few occasions for the display and embodiment of identities within a European con...
Nowhere Ending Sky
Meta opens her eyes wide, and the blue seeps into them. She keeps them open until she is fat and swollen with colour and the sky is drained pale. It is a slightly scary game: it could easily be that the sky doesn't like having its colour taken away. So she closes her eyes and sends the blue back to where it came from.
