PhD student tandem activity at the conference "Redefining Televisuality: Programmes, Practices, Methods" at the Filmuniversität Babelsberg

From 25 - 27 October 2023, the two PhD students Consuelo Ábalos (University of Chile) and Hannah Müssemann (Freie Universität Berlin, GUMELAB) participated in the conference "Redefining Televisuality: Programmes, Practices, Methods" at the Filmuniversität Babelsberg Konrad Wolf. The two doctoral students support each other's research in the tandem programme and help each other out from the perspective of a different discipline (communication studies and history).

The conference was attended by scholars working on series and televisuality as well as Netflix algorithms and reception studies. Consuelo Ábalos presented a paper on the first Chilean Netflix series "42 dias en la oscuridad”.
