• +۷ مورد دیگر

Charlotta Krispinsson is a Senior Lecturer in Art History at Umeå University, Sweden. She specializes in 17th-century art and visual culture with a focus on copying practices, portraiture, and the use of prints in Northern Europe. Previously, she held positions at Södertörn University, Uppsala University, and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Humboldt University in Berlin funded by the Swedish Research Council. Her educational background includes a PhD in Art History from Stockholm University (2016) with a dissertation on national portrait collections and late 19th- and early 20th-century art historical writings on early modern portraiture. She has also been a research fellow at the Rubenianum in Antwerp (2023). Krispinsson's research centers on how prints functioned as vehicles for artistic transmission in 17th-century Sweden and Norway, examining how painters like Gottfried Hendtzschel and Elias Fiigenschoug used prints after Rubens' designs for church commissions. Her work challenges traditional art historical narratives by highlighting the importance of copying practices rather than originality in peripheral European contexts. Her recent publications demonstrate a clear trajectory from her doctoral work on portrait collections toward increasingly specific studies of copying practices in Northern European art. She examines how prints after Rubens were used as templates for religious paintings in Norwegian churches, revealing how artistic production functioned in regions distant from major artistic centers. Postdoctoral Fellowship funded by Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet) Krispinsson has presented her research at numerous international conferences including NORDIK meetings across Scandinavia. She teaches art history at multiple Swedish universities and has been actively involved in conference organization, particularly sessions on pre-modern art histories of migration and exchange. Her current research continues to explore the widespread use of prints as models for painting in seventeenth-century Sweden.

Victoria Van Orden Martinez is a Researcher at Lund University's Department of History and Department of Arts and Cultural Studies, specializing in Holocaust studies, refugee experiences, and postwar knowledge production. Her work bridges history, migration studies, and gender studies, with a particular focus on how survivors of Nazi persecution who became refugees documented atrocities and shaped historical memory. She is affiliated with multiple research networks including NORAH (North European Center for Research on Antisemitism and the Holocaust), the Migrant Knowledge Network at the German Historical Institute, and the Nordic Jewish Studies Network. Education: Ph.D. in History from Linköping University (2024) Dissertation: 'Afterlives: Jewish and Non-Jewish Polish Survivors of Nazi Persecution in Sweden Documenting Nazi Atrocities, 1945-1946' Dr. Martinez's research centers on the intersection of Holocaust studies, gender, and refugee experiences, particularly focusing on how survivors became knowledge actors in documenting Nazi atrocities. Her work examines the Polish Research Institute in Lund (PIZ) archive, which was recently added to the UNESCO Memory of the World Register, analyzing how emotions functioned as vehicles of knowledge in survivor testimonies. She investigates how women survivors of Nazi persecution who were medical professionals navigated their careers after the war, and how displacement shaped historical memory and knowledge production. Her scholarly output reveals a consistent focus on the materiality of Holocaust memory, the psychological dimensions of testimony, and the epistemic value of emotions in historical documentation. Martinez's work demonstrates how refugee communities created knowledge networks that documented atrocities while simultaneously processing trauma, with particular attention to how gender shaped these experiences. Her research bridges European and American scholarly traditions, connecting Swedish archival materials with broader Holocaust studies. Scientific Awards: Nils Karlebys stiftelse för Skånsk Kultur och Historia, Stipendium (2025) As an editorial board member of Collections: A Journal for Museum and Archives Professionals and an Affiliated Non-residential Scholar at the USC Shoah Foundation, Martinez actively contributes to the development of methodologies for preserving and interpreting Holocaust testimony. Her work with the Ravensbrück archive at Lund University demonstrates her commitment to innovative approaches in historical research that center survivor experiences while examining the institutional frameworks that shape memory. She frequently presents at international conferences on topics ranging from Nazi concentration camps to refugee medical labor in postwar Sweden. Dr. Martinez is deeply embedded in collaborative research networks including the Migrant Knowledge Network at the German Historical Institute and the National Network for Holocaust Studies in Sweden. Her work with the Polish Research Institute in Lund (PIZ) archive has positioned her as a key scholar examining how displaced persons documented their experiences and contributed to historical knowledge production. Through her participation in multiple international research initiatives, she continues to expand our understanding of how trauma, displacement, and knowledge intersect in the aftermath of genocide.

Mikael Wiberg is full Professor of Informatics at Umeå University, Sweden, where he leads research groups in Design Informatics and Digital Interaction & Design. He is co Editor-in-Chief of ACM Interactions and has held chaired and guest professorships at Uppsala, Södertörn and Chalmers universities. His work sits at the intersection of human-computer interaction, materiality, architecture and emerging technologies. Education: PhD in Informatics, Umeå University, 2001 Docent (Associate Professor) in Informatics, Umeå University, 2004 Research interests revolve around interactivity, mobility, materiality and architecture . Wiberg coined the notion of “materiality of interaction” to study how digital resources merge with physical materials, spaces and artefacts. Recent strands include more-than-human design, human-building interaction, autonomous systems UX, and social justice in HCI, all interrogating how interactive technologies shape—and are shaped by—human and non-human actors. Across more than two decades he has published in top venues such as ACM TOCHI, Design Issues, Int. Journal of Design, Human-Computer Interaction journal and the magazine ACM Interactions . His 2018 MIT Press monograph The Materiality of Interaction consolidates his theoretical stance and has become a touchstone for architectural and material HCI discourse.

Kathrin Glüer-Pagin is a Professor of Theoretical Philosophy at Stockholm University's Department of Philosophy. Her academic work spans philosophy of mind, language, epistemology, and action theory, with a particular focus on meaning, content, normativity, and perception. She is recognized as a leading scholar of Donald Davidson's philosophical contributions. Glüer-Pagin's research interests center on the theory of meaning and content, including foundational and formal semantics, the normativity of meaning, content, belief, and reasons, as well as philosophy of perception and knowledge resistance. Her distinctive approach to perceptual experience, known as 'phenomenal intentionalism,' contends that experiences are a kind of belief with 'phenomenal' or 'looks-content' that ascribes properties to objects in a way that can account for both veridical and non-veridical experiences. She has made significant contributions to debates about meaning normativity, belief formation, and the relationship between language and thought. Her publication record reveals a consistent trajectory of influential work at the intersection of philosophy of language and philosophy of mind. The most recent fifteen publications demonstrate her sustained engagement with questions about perceptual experience, meaning determination, and normativity. Notably, she has developed a distinctive account of 'looks' as relational properties that has implications for understanding visual experience and perceptual justification. Her collaborative work with Peter Pagin on 'switcher semantics' for proper names has provided an alternative framework that accommodates Kripkean intuitions without requiring names to be rigid designators. Glüer-Pagin currently leads the cross-disciplinary research program 'Knowledge Resistance: Causes, Consequences and Cures,' which investigates the nature and causes of knowledge resistance—the tendency not to accept available knowledge. This ambitious program represents a concerted effort to provide a unified framework for investigating knowledge resistance beyond the current state of the art.
