How might we conceptualize "the digital" as a kind of mediation that articulates the time and space of diasporic experience? In answer, Parham's talk will explore rememory, affective excess, and glitch aesthetics in Toni Morrison's Beloved, Hiro Murai's video for Flying Lotus & Kendrick Lamar's "Never Catch Me," and Zun Lee's digital project, "Fade Resistance."

Parham is a Professor of English at Amherst College, as well as the Director of The Five College Digital Humanities Project. For more on her digital critical work, see her recent interview in the LA Review of Books series "The Digital in the Humanities."
