>> ORAL HISTORY IN A DIGITAL WORLD: NEW HORIZONS, NEW CONCERNS ON-LINE
>> WORKSHOP, SATURDAY 23 OCTOBER 2021
>>
>> Over the last twenty years, the digital revolution has changed
>> profoundly the ways in which oral history is recorded, documented,
>> analyzed, used and disseminated. During the Covid-19 pandemic we saw
>> the rapid acceleration of these processes as electronic platforms
>> and digital capitalism came to dominate our daily lives. Digital
>> technologies have brought many obvious advantages: open digital oral
>> history archives facilitate access and content search and may assure
>> wider visibility to voices hidden from mainstream historical accounts.
>> Discussions within the global oral history community have so far
>> focused largely on these indisputably positive contributions of
>> digital technologies. More recently, however, new concerns have
>> emerged concerning the long-term consequences of the “digital turn”
>> for crucial aspects of our practice. Considering that in Greece this
>> important discussion has not even begun, the Greek Oral History
>> Association took the initiative to organize this workshop as a first
>> step to raise awareness of these concerns among oral historians in
>> Greece and abroad.
>>
>> For more information, the program and the link to join look at the
>> attached document. Please note that only the afternoon session will
>> be in English.
