In this colloquium, we focus on forming an exciting and answerable
research question for a BA thesis. We look at the relationship between
formulating a hypothesis and subsequently identifying methods to guide
the inquiry. The colloquium is a process of discovery best conducted
with peers.
The study of Digital Culture increasingly calls for interdisciplinary
methods – you have a considerable amount of latitude in terms of your
topic and methods. This disciplinary latitude means that choosing a
topic narrow enough to answer in a BA thesis is critical. For this
reason, much of the feedback given in the initial stages amounts to “be
more specific.” Accordingly, you will get the most out of this
colloquium if you arrive with a clearly defined topic. You have to know
the boundaries (e.g., a time frame, geographic area, demographics).

In this course, we will critically examine the "hype" surrounding artificial intelligence by asking the following questions: What do we mean by artificial intelligence? What is artificial about it? What does intelligence mean, and how have these meanings changed over time?
We will combine perspectives from the 1950s to the 1980s with current views to examine the different stages in the history of AI, from "thinking machines" to symbolic AI to large language models such as ChatGPT. In doing so, we will continually reflect on the (material) infrastructure used for these systems, the exploitative practices that affect humans and our environment as well as the political interest and neo-colonial ideologies that underlie them.

This lecture introduces students to digital accessibility. Experts from the digital industry will give talks on topics as wide ranging as live captioning, accessible web design, diversity in the media and the accessibility of digital tools such as PowerPoint. The lecture series concludes with a visit to the studios of Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR) on 7th and 21st May.
