Living Culture Making Heritage

Living Culture, Making Heritage: Critical Conversations on Cultural Heritage and Identity. Whose heritage matters? What gets preserved? And why do we identify with certain items, places, or histories more than others? With your hosts Kate Huber and Stacey Copeland, this podcast takes you on a journey into the dynamic world of heritage production and preservation in the 21st century. Through interviews with critical heritage scholars, museum curators, artists, and community members, we investigate the hard and sometimes unexpected questions about what “heritage” means in Europe today. With geopolitical and environmental shifts challenging the stability of the present, heritage emerges as an idea with the power to rethink the past and preserve our collective futures.In collaboration with Diggit Magazine, Tilburg University, and the University of Groningen.

    Stigma Damages: Counter-Archives, Art, and Irish Natural Heritage

    What does it mean to inherit harm? Artist and Askeaton Contemporary Arts director Michele Horrigan sits down with Kate Huber and Stacey Copeland to discuss life beside Aughinish Alumina—Europe's largest bauxite refinery, now Russian-owned—and the toxic legacy it has left across County Limerick. Through her ongoing project Stigma Damages, Horrigan has built a counter-archive of found objects, promotional ephemera, poetry, and video that bears witness against the industry's sanitized self-presentation. From government cover-ups and "sacrifice zones" to a grassroots Natural Heritage Group restoring a polluted river and preserving the oral histories of an aging community, this conversation asks: when what we inherit is harm, what does it mean to preserve it—and who gets to tell that story?Learn more and access the transcript and our further reading list on Diggit Magazine.In collaboration with Diggit Magazine, University of Groningen and Tilburg University.

    Colonial Legacies and Digital Heritage with Kate Simpson

    How does digital heritage reproduce colonial hierarchies of power—or help resist them? Digital Humanities and archival scholar Dr. Kate Simpson (University of Glasgow) sits down with Kate Huber to unpack why heritage is always political. From repatriation to the Global North–South digital divide, they explore how infrastructures, platforms, and access shape what gets preserved, shared, and valued. Recorded during Simpson’s visit to Tilburg University, this conversation asks: who gets to be visible in the archive, and on whose terms?Find credits, shownotes, and resources on Diggit Magazine.
