00:00-00:00 | Campus Moesgaard/Aarhus URBAN MEGA-PROJECTS IN THE ROMAN PERIOD AND LATE ANTIQUITY Large-scale infrastructural projects, such as aqueducts and fortifications, were prerequisites for the existence of cities in the Roman and late antique periods. Their colossal size, however, could pose serious challenges for their construction. These could range from the necessity of maintaining a steady supply of resources over a long period, to the organization of large workforces. The study of the remains of these monuments is likewise not devoid of obstacles.

00:00-00:00 | Campus Aarhus Netlab PHD Workshop in Web archiving Please notice: This workshop will not be cancelled due to Corona virus precautions, but an online solution (video conference) may be applied with short notice if the situation in August demands it. Participants will be notified and get directions for how to participate if this becomes relevant.
The NetLab PhD workshop in web archiving will include presentations on the necessity and challenges of preserving web content (which disappears rapidly, and must be preserved as a resource), of the underlying technologies in web content and it's preservation, and on how archived web content may differ from the online originals.

Ny-materialisme, Ny-marxisme, Ny-fænomenologi Dette kursus vil tage fat i aktuelle videnskabsteoretiske nybrud indenfor human-, social- og samfundsvidenskaberne - og i aktivt samspil med kursets deltagere - sætte dem i relation til eksisterede videnskabsteoretiske landkort, konkrete samfundsmæssige og praktiske problemstillinger og ikke mindst kritisk undersøge, hvorvidt idéen om noget ’nyt’ kan forsvares og rent faktisk frembringe hidtil usete analyser og kvalificere kritiske blik.

09:00-16:00 | Campus Aarhus, Moesgård Phantasmography and Anthropology So much in life, so many improbable conversations and probable scenarios, are imagined, not concretely real, and an anthropology attuned to the imaginary – a fantastical anthropology, an anthropology of the phantasmal – needs to account for the force and tenor of the imagined, the possible, the conjectured, the feared and dreamed of, specters of memory and perception, the dangerous perhaps, within the phantasmal flow of its thought and expression.
