The Centre of Excellence in Media Innovation and Digital Culture, or MEDIT, was established at Tallinn University, Estonia in 2015.
MEDIT’s goal is to study cultural change and innovation processes that accompany digital media. MEDIT also aims to apply theoretical knowledge to experimenting with new and innovative forms of digital media.
The work is largely interdisciplinary, based on the understanding that interpreting and participating in contemporary cultural change requires cultural, economic and technological dynamics to be viewed as a single system.

This event is supported by Estonian Research Council through European Union Regional Development Fund.
