Crowley, David

How do media technologies and media events give shape to the cultural and ideological hybridity of the late modern world? What will be the new rules for public communication in the coming decade and how will these new rules play out with respect to the design and support of media practices, for the dissemination of information and knowledge, and for institution-building and the development of human capital? Professor Crowley’s research on these questions focused on how contemporary cultural themes inflect debates over information and communication technologies and influence the shape of ICT development. Professor Crowley’s recent work focuses on new media practices, the development of information and communication technologies, and the rise of modern forms of informationism. David Crowley is an Associate Professor of Communications within the Department of Art History and Communications at McGill University. Professor Crowley was the first doctoral graduate of McGill’s Graduate Programme in Communications.
