Listen "S1 Ep1: What is Internet Studies and where did it come from?"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we have two great talks about the early history of Internet Studies: Professor Matthew Allen (founder of Internet Studies at Curtin University in 1999) and Henry Jenkins (who started a Masters program in Comparative Media Studies at the same time on the other side of the world). Both of them talk about the ways in which they responded to how their universities worked, and some of the challenges of trying to explain what the Internet was - and why it mattered - at the time.
These talks were recorded on Noongar Boodja at the 2019 Open Literacy: Digital Games, Social Responsibility and Social Innovation Conference, an international research symposium co-sponsored by Tencent Holdings (China) and Curtin University’s Centre for Culture & Technology and Internet Studies.
