Taking place from 30 September – 1 October 2021 in a hybrid format, the conference ‘Television Histories in Development’ will explore the histories of television from a broad cultural and societal perspective. Coinciding with 70 years of television in the Netherlands, the event (organized by Prof. Huub Wijfjes, University of Groningen, and Dr. Josette Wolthuis, University of Amsterdam), will be hosted by the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision in Hilversum as part of several activities related to the anniversary. With an approach to television as an international cultural phenomenon and technology, the conference invites contributions from all countries, backgrounds and cultures.
