Have you ever wondered what makes storytelling and digital media a powerful combination? This edited volume examines the opportunities to think, do, and/or create jointly afforded by digital storytelling. The editors of this volume contend that digital storytelling and digital media can create spaces of empowerment and transformation by facilitating multiple kinds of border crossings and convergences involving groups of peoples, places, knowledge, methodologies, and teaching pedagogies.The book is unique in its inclusion of anthropologists and education practitioners and its emphasis on multiple subfields in anthropology.The contributors discuss digital storytelling in the context of educational programs, teaching anthropology, and ethnographic research involving a variety of populations and subjects that will appeal to researchers and practitioners engaged with qualitative methods and pedagogies that rely on media technology.

Die Geste macht den Körper - für sich und für andere - wahrnehmbar, ohne dass ein narrativer Zusammenhang bestehen muss. Sie ist eine direkte Adressierung, eine unmittelbare Theatralisierung des Körpers, ein Im-Medium-Sein. Kino und Tanz sind Künste, die von dieser pränarrativen Präsenz des Körpers und seiner Bewegung bestimmt sind. Die Beiträger_innen dieses Bandes gehen diesem Zusammenhang und der gegenseitigen Bezogenheit der Künste nach. »Der Band ist [...] in seiner Anlage als Überblick gut geeignet, eine Einführung und eine Orientierung für die Beschäftigung mit dem zeitgenössischen Tanz, seinen medialen Ausprägungen und der aktuellen Diskussion über Film und Tanz.« Peter Dahms, http://tanzinfo-berlin.de, 17.11.2009

Over the last decades, and in particular since the widespread adoption of the Internet, encounters with algorithmic procedures for ‘information retrieval’ – the activity of getting some piece of information out of a col-lection or repository of some kind – have become everyday experiences for most people in large parts of the world.

This edited volume interrogates the role of media technologies in the formation of environments, understood both as physical spaces and epistemological constructs about them. Using the concept of 'environing media', the book advances a deeper understanding of how media processes - defined here as the storage, process, and transmission of data - influence human-Earth relations.Virtually all aspects of the interconnected global ecological crisis can be related to the intensification and acceleration of scaling up the human imprint on the planet by technological means. Combining ideas from the humanities, arts, and humanistic social sciences, Environing Media offers a perspective on how we entered the current geological epoch - the Anthropocene. The ten chapters explore colonial, planetary and elemental environing media, with cases including indigenous history, ocean monitoring, computational history, climate modelling, environmental history, the air as medium, the biosphere and the Earth system. Drawing upon a breadth of examples and expertise in history, anthropology, geography, cultural history, science and technology studies, and media studies, the book discovers a novel approach to human-Earth histories that demonstrates how technologies have mediated between humans and environments and in the process contributed to a societal feedback loop between knowing and doing environment, each impacting the other. Environing Media is a timely addition for scholars and upper-level students in environmental humanities and media studies.
