This session explored how worldmaking is mediated by digital culture and technology. In the first part of the session, we presented the work of one of the research strands on that project (Digital Mediations) and asked how this process of worldmaking is mediated by new ecologies of memory and knowledge production.
In the second part, a panel of experts explored what role critical digital literacies have to play as new topographies of digitally mediated Modern Languages research emerge.
