A new question emerges: who owns these screens? Who produces and structures the interfaces\r\nwith which we inhabit the world? In my talk, I will show how a handful of companies - usually referred to by the acronym \"GAFAM\" - are monopolizing our means of being in the world by standardizing and\r\nimpoverishing them. So the problem is not that we spend our time on \"screens\", but that we spend it on \"a\" screen. Is it possible to find a plurality of ways to inhabit the world?",

Pushed to the extreme, it is embodied in magic and the mastery of its mysteries or, at the other end of the spectrum, in such a mastery of sciences that the latter appear to belong to the magical. The establishment of literacies specific to these communities, when they study magic or interplanetary travel, gives them access (mirroring our faculties) to the mechanics of these universes.</p>\r\n<p>Thus, speculative fiction offer a great diversity of representation of these communities: very realistic, in the <i>Problem with three bodies</i>; disturbing, in <i>A Deadly Education</i>; while they are distinct castes in <i>Divergent</i> or <i>La Passe-miroir</i>.</p>\r\n<p>I will present here the imbrications between the exogenous element to our reality and the class of scholars, looking first at the figures of the scholar and then at the institution itself.</p>\r\n<p>Theories of the commons thinking about the general good through activist initiatives, and digital possibilities will also serve as a compass and theoretical tool to better understand the propositions and academic utopias/dystopias presented.</p>\r\n<p>The large corpus convened will serve as a starting point to address the diversity of these representations and to identify lines of force. I will focus here only on the research aspect of these institutions, leaving aside the institutions presented only as places of teaching.</p>",

      "content_html": "<p>My lecture proposes to analyze the theme of obsolescence in <i>Inscryption</i>, a deckbuilder and roguelike video game designed by Daniel Mullins and released by Devolver Digital in 2021. The game opens with a dark cabin where the player must beat a demonic force with cards to escape. This seemingly classic scenario is actually the surface of a complex story. The objective of the game is much deeper and more engaging: it is for the player to destroy the game or, in the narrative, to make him aware of the obsolescence of his own ecosystem.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Based on the principle of necessary sacrifice, the game is an entity in its own right that struggles to continue playing and thus to survive. This practical materialisation in the gameplay of the game's theme, associated with an aesthetic mixing vintage with horror codes (scenes filmed in found footage), carries a message about the obsolescence of a technology and a world mythology. <i>Inscryption</i> is the allegory of a sacrifice to be made of the obsolete digital transcendence (aggressive and intrusive entity in the image of Wells' World Brain). Faced with entities that intermittently take control, the player is made aware of their role: that of sacrificing the game to get out of it.</p>",

      "content_html": "<i>Les Textapes d'Alice</i> is a French web series broadcast in 2015, originally adapted from a 98% autobiographical Tumblr blog of the same name created by Angela Soupe, that traces the love journey of a young woman, Alice, through types of relationships and dating sites. Consisting of 12 episodes in the same format as a blog post (5 minutes), the series navigates between portrait scenes of the heroine's entourage (without her ever being shown to us) and editorial liberties including the inscription on the screen of digital reading and writing environments (SMS, blog, dating applications). This editorial choice of hybridizing the screen (as a space for both image and text) echoes the general slogan of the creation: \"L'amour, c'était déjà compliqué avant, depuis Internet, c'est pire (Love was already complicated before, since the Internet, it is worse)\". It is around this problematic of the relationship 2.0 that the narrative is tied by a contemporary reflection on the involvement of digital media in our private lives. Alice's evolution, between identity play on dating apps and seduction chases through texts, resonates with a reflection on profile writing (Monjour 2015, 2017; Vitali-Rosati <i>et al</i>. 2018). The transmediality that was kept in the adaptation to the big screen performs the media splintering of our relationships: how do we amorously meet the other through the flow of digital writings? Who do we meet and what profile of us is established in the digital encounter? I wish to address these questions in an analysis of <i>Les Textapes d'Alice</i> in relation to Intermedial Studies (Kittler 1990, 1999; McLuhan 2010; Hayles 2012; Larrue and Vitali-Rosati 2019), and New Materialism (Barad 2007).",

We are now living in a digital space. This space is made of writing. Our identities are writing – profiles, databases' entries, lines of code –, our actions are writing – from clicks to buying a book or planning a trip – the objects around us are made of writing. The Canada Research Chair on Digital Textualites aims to offer a new reading and a new understanding of this writing that now makes our world. On this site you will find all the projects led by Marcello Vitali-Rosati and his team, the publications of the Chair members and the description of all the theoretical concepts used for our research.
