Book excerpt: This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2012. The notion of digital memories emerged mainly from the encounter of memory studies and media studies as a result of the opportunites of storage and dissemination of data provided by information technologies. Yet, the notion has became an area of focus for many researchers and artists as the notion of memory itself has always been subject to discussions and works from various disciplines. Accordingly, Digital Memories project has become an important branch of interdisciplinary studies and of the Interdisciplinary.Net network. In March 2012, the 4th Global Conference on Digital Memories has been organized in Prague. This e-book is a compilation of the six papers that were presented by researchers and practitioners from different georgraphies and disciplines in the conference. The authors introduce different approaches to the contemporary issue of remembering digitally, elaborating on theoretical, practical and creative aspects of the relation between remembering and digital technologies.
