In the sixth and final episode of the series Fergal Lenehan and Luisa Conti, from the Centre for Digital Interculturality Studies, talk to Yolanda López García from the Technical University of Chemnitz, where she is Junior Professor for Intercultural Praxis with a Focus on Digital Cultures at the Institute for German and Intercultural Communications. The conversation touches on viewing interculturality as an emerging imaginary, Yolanda’s work on digital influencers in Germany and their so-called “migratory experience”, the case of German windows, the obsession with lüften (airing an apartment or house), and Yolanda’s theoretical concept of the “e-maginary”.
