ABOUT US

EAHR | Media (Ethnocultural Art Histories Research in Media) is made up of faculty members and graduate students across Concordia University working at the intersections of ethnocultural art research, media, and digital art history. Departments and Institutes represented by our members include: Art History, Studio Arts, Dance, Design and Computation Arts, Animation, Cinema, Theatre, Communication Studies, the Gail and Stephen A. Jarislowsky Institute for Studies in Canadian Art and the Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling (COHDS).
​
As we begin our inaugural year, our mission is three-fold. First, to provide a platform to organize and showcase research and research-creation on ethnocultural topics carried out at Concordia. Second, through our series of public events, to explore innovative initiatives and methodologies to further engage and develop EAHR | Media research directions. Third, in collaboration with our expanding inter-faculty network, to propose that EAHR | Media become a formal research hub in the university. In alignment with our mission, we are organizing a year-long series of public events (lectures, panels, and research-sharing sessions) to be presented at Concordia. Our rich interdisciplinary program brings together local and international thinkers and makers. We have partnered with various groups on campus to help make this happen including Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies in Society and Culture (CISSC), the Departments of Studio Arts, Art History, and Dance, LePARC/Milieux Institute for Arts, Culture and Technology, and the Concordia University Research Chair in Ethnocultural Art Histories.

KEY QUESTIONS

​(1) What are the implications of intersectionality theory and critical race studies for the politics of representation of people of colour and Indigenous people in new media art? What are the political dimensions, psychological effects, boundaries and meanings of these aesthetic choices?

(2) How can digital media better encompass the full range of human diversity including ability, language, racialization, culture, gender and age?

​(3) What are the epistemological implications of data-driven analysis and spatio-temporal representations for the study of research-creations by or about ethnocultural communities?


​Concordia University is located on unceded Indigenous lands. The Kanien’kehá:ka Nation is recognized as the custodians of the lands and waters on which we gather today. Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal is historically known as a gathering place for many First Nations. Today, it is home to a diverse population of Indigenous and other peoples. We respect the continued connections with the past, present and future in our ongoing relationships with Indigenous and other peoples within the Montreal community.
