THE NOSTAGAIN NETWORK

Exploring Generative Nostalgia Since 2022

MEMORABILIA.MP4

Outside of our annual symposia, the NOSTAGAIN network continues to study and showcase works on the generative potentials of nostalgia.

As an ongoing webseries, memorabilia.mp4 features artists, scholars, & nostalgia enthusiasts in 1 hour episodes — 20 min talk and 40 min Live Q&A!

Each talk exemplifies what NOSTAGAIN calls ‘generative nostalgia‘, which is a critical engagement with the past which produces something for the present and future. In simpler words, we do not see nostalgia as a passive or lonesome emotion. Memorabilia.mp4 showcases the people who are active, collaborative, and critical with their pasts… and what this nostalgia means for the future.
