Dr Simon Ganahl discusses his InSituEx Research Agenda

In this episode, we discuss the InSituEx research agenda, and how Simon is developing this as an open source toolkit allowing others to explore, adapt and evolve the digital multispective experience developed in Campus Medius. We get to the centre of Simon’s current thinking and enter into a discussion on how art, literature, the humanities, and the study of these subjects has so much more to offer the development of new digital media.

In our previous episode, we discussed Campus Medius, a long-running digital mapping and cartography project, which explores a pivotal 24-hour period in the rise of fascism within Austria. The project illustrates how Simon has developed many of his ideas over the last decade to become a multispective digital experience that takes much inspiration from the French historian and philosopher Michel Foucault and his concept of the Dispositive.
