PhD in Postdigital Cultures

Coventry University

The Centre for Postdigital Cultures has as its mission the establishment of a more socially just and sustainable ‘post-capitalist’ society. In the process, by drawing on cross-disciplinary ideas associated with open, disruptive and immersive media, the posthuman, posthumanities and the Anthropocene, we endeavour to help 21st century society and its cultural institutions (galleries, archives, museums, libraries etc.) respond to the challenges they face in relation to the (post)digital at a global, national and local level.The Centre does this through an interdisciplinary research agenda that extends from computing, through the humanities and social sciences, to open education, political activism and art practice, in order to explore how intellectual, community and civic engagement can prefigure different ways of being together.The Centre has state-of-the-art equipment for immersive media production (e.g. 360 cameras, bodysuits, headsets, audio sunglasses). It also offers a dedicated studio for the production of practice-based research.Please use the official Coventry University website as your main source of information as our courses are subject to change throughout the year.
