Critical Perspectives on Museums and Digital Technology

Critical Perspectives on Museums and Digital Technology contends that digital – now more than ever – is critical to the future of the cultural sector, but that it is also a relationship in need of urgent reframing.

Promoting interdisciplinary writing that seeks to address contemporaneous issues in a time-sensitive way, the series will also be perceptive and attuned to contextual precedents and emergent issues from across the museum technology field. Contributions will be "critical" in that each book will always bring a high level of criticality and intellectuality to the way it negotiates its subject. These publications will also speak to issues that are timely, urgent and, therefore, "critical" to how we understand current practices. As a whole, the series will consider how to redefine the museum in relation to the sociocultural and technological conditions within which it must coexist.

Critical Perspectives on Museums and Digital Technology will include solo, collaborative and ensemble volumes that are accessible and supported by practice-based insights. The series will be essential reading for academics, students and professionals around the globe. Contributions to the series will be particularly useful to those with an interest in museums and heritage, media and communication, art and design, education, business and economics.
