The main goal of the laboratory is to create an online platform for the historical and anthropological studies of visual narratives and practices of gaining agency on the visual materials of Kazakhstan culture of the late XIX - early XXI century. It is necessary for modernizing memory studies in Kazakhstan, as well as the development of methodological recommendations for integrating this issue into the educational process. The visual content, which is planned to fill the library of the laboratory, reflects the synergistic nature of the forms of Kazakh culture and provides an opportunity for a comprehensive transdisciplinary study of their evolution from Modern times to our days. According to the general digitalization in the world humanities, transdisciplinary theories of the image are being formed with an emphasis on the evolution of identity, agency and semiotics of the visual. The immersion of the visual in the historical-anthropological context distinguishes between optical perception, a look at the meaning of cultural methods of perception and how historical knowledge is reproduced in images. Within the framework of the laboratory, we propose to immerse the visual culture of Kazakhstan of the Modern Times to our days into a historical context.
