      abstract = {This open access book explores the multiple forms of  curatorial agencies that develop when museum collection  digitisations, narratives and new research findings  circulate online. Focusing on Viking Age objects, it tracks  the effects of antagonistic debates on discussion forums  and the consequences of search engines, personalisation,  and machine learning on American-based online platforms.  Furthermore, it considers eco-systemic processes comprising  computation, rare-earth minerals, electrical currents and  data centres and cables as novel forms of curatorial  actions. Thus, it explores curatorial agency as social  constructivist, semiotic, algorithmic, and material. This  book is of interest to scholars and students in the fields  of museum studies, cultural heritage and media studies. It  also appeals to museum practitioners concerned with  curatorial innovation at the intersection of humanist  interpretations and new materialist and more-than-human  frameworks.
