New Book Chapter Planned

book chapter, ,

Last week I was asked if I would write a book chapter for an edited volume “Difficult Pasts and Immersive Experiences” to be published by Routledge (History, Heritage Studies & Archaeology series) in 2021, edited by Dr. Agiatis Benardou and Dr. Anna Maria Droumpouki.

I suggested a chapter on the theoretical problems but also potential interaction design-related ways to create more reflective virtual environments to engage with these “difficult pasts”. I have been inspired by an article on Forbidden Knowledge by Stanley Godlovich, but I have now lost that paper reference (here is another: https://philosophicaldisquisitions.blogspot.com/2020/04/can-we-morally-judge-past-on-williamss.html)

Current working title: Chronological Relativism: Retrovisiting Dark and Forbidden Heritage.
