New Diggit article 👇 (last one about the Mona Lisa, I promise)
Should Jeff Bezos eat the Mona Lisa? This question might appear ridiculous. It has, however, the potential to reveal all sorts of issues regarding the dazzling meaninglessness of the post-digital age.

How would #DaVinci feel about the endless online transformations, commodifications and memefications of 'his' #MonaLisa? This article uses the concept of 'imitatio' to analyze the participatory practices of the Mona Lisa Clan on /r/Place.

2 books on digital constitutionalism summarised in 30'! 💻🤓 thanks to @diggitmagazine for this opportunity to discuss how constitutionalism is evolving to face the challenges of the digital society 🎙🎥
While constitutions protect people against the power of state actors, they don't speak to the #BigTech corporations that rule the internet and act as judges over their digital subjects. @EdoCeles discusses the "constitutional moment" we're currently in.

It was such a pleasure to talk with @EdoCeles about 'digital constitutionalism' and 'internet bills of rights'. His research is extremely interesting and relevant for anyone who focusses on #BigTech and the (re)distribution of #power in post-digital society.

We’re excited to announce that Tilburg University will host the #ADDA5 conference in spring 2025 🎉 more information is coming soon, stay tuned!
Fellow PhD student Jan Dijsselbloem asks his audience at #ADDA4 what these emojis mean 🤷♂️ any ideas? (and argues that only if we already know the sentence 'behind' these emojis, we'de be able to read these emojis in a particular way)
Melvin Wevers shares some insights that might be useful far beyond the fields of #History and #DigitalHumanities 👇
Archives are anything but impartial records of our shared pasts. In this video, Melvin Wevers from @UvA_Amsterdam talks about #DigitalHistory, and explains how archives are often incomplete and imbued with biases and #inequality

Twee jaar werkten universitair docenten Jan Jaap de Ruiter en Max Spotti samen met een team van Tilburgse en internationale wetenschappers aan een project over fake news. Resultaat is een lesmodule die studenten leert fake news te analyseren en herleiden:

Which city is the most #ugly city of the Netherlands? Some people might say "#Tilburg". Many Tilburgers, however, have started to like their city's appearance, and use the words "#beautiful ugliness" to describe their beloved city's looks. diggitmagazine.com/articles/…
Inspired by my beloved #Tilburg, conversations with @ProfSwanenberg about the city's #localidentity and @SuzieThomasUA's course about #heritageparticipation, I analysed discourse about The blue building and found that there's more than meets the (sore) eye diggitmagazine.com/articles/…

According to Rodney Harrison, museums have an important role to play in addressing #racism, #colonialism and the #climatecrisis. But in order to do that, #museums must critically engage with their own relation with racial #inequality, human exceptionalism and limitless growth 👏

Is there a lesson we can learn from #ElonMusk's #twittertakeover? According to @ljmcastle, the event has highlighted the private and commercial nature(s) of online platforms, and could serve as a reminder that @ElonMusk is the "embodiment of #capitalism".
Excited to announce that Sabrina van Willigenburg and I will be presenting our paper 'Framing #Journalism: Collective Reflections on Dutch News #Media and Journalistic Practices' at the eight @OnMediaStudies conference 👏
