Anya Ventura

I am a master’s student in Brown University’s Public Humanities, a program that prepares students for work in cultural institutions. I’m interested in the role of digital technology in the organization, visualization, and production of knowledge, as well as the opportunities digital media presents for creating new forms of participation in public culture. My recent research explores the impact of technology on curatorial work, both inside and outside the museum, and the changing meanings of authorship, authenticity, preservation, and collective experience that accompany technological shifts. My public work centers on digital storytelling and the use of visual wonder throughout time.
