Pause for Thought

An interesting project was Pause for Thought https://pauseforthought.net/ with aims "to create an interdisciplinary network of scholars, artists, writers, media practitioners, and creative professionals who are invested in the future of media literacy and who might both benefit from and contribute to the formulation of modes of analysis, creative practices, and teaching strategies appropriate for our rapidly shifting media landscape." and " to contribute to the study of how social acceleration and the increasing rate at which media are changing impacts contemporary society and politics." Their website has a bibliography and some short, readable contributions to the symposium they hosted - including one summarising some research involving librarians https://pauseforthought.net/entry/temporal-tension-fields-in-museums-and-libraries/ Worth dipping into (slowly, of course ....)
