10 Mar '23

EADH is looking for a member to fulfill the role of secretary of the organization. The secretary is one of the officers of EADH and a voting member of the executive committee. Among the secretary’s duties is to schedule the executive meetings, take minutes of the same, and produce action lists and a report for the Annual General Meeting of the association. The secretary supports the Chair and the President by organizing polls, counting votes, and recording decisions made during online discussions. We are seeking an individual whose interests align with the aims of EADH and who would like to get more directly involved in the support of existing European collaborations as well as in the development of new research strategies. The multilingual and multicultural environment requires cultural sensitivity as well as a willingness to learn from others. Together with the other EADH officers, the secretary represents our association in the international settings of the Alliance for Digital Humanities Organizations and beyond.

Call for Proposals: Encoding Cultures – joint MEC and TEI Conference 2023
by Martin Holmes 21 Feb '23

21 Feb '23

[With apologies for cross-posting. Please distribute widely] We are pleased to announce a call for papers, posters, panels, and workshops for “Encoding Cultures,” a joint conference of the annual Music Encoding Conference and Text Encoding Initiative Members’ Meeting. The conference will be held 5–8 September 2023 (Tue-Fri) at Paderborn University, Germany, with pre-conference workshops 4–5 September 2023 (Mon-Tue). This event brings together, for the first time, the Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) and Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) communities, both of which are involved in the digitization and encoding of cultural heritage artifacts. While musical and textual artifacts have fundamental differences, there are many overlapping approaches in regard to data modeling, encoding theory, and digital publication. MEI and TEI also share technical tools and services, as both XML vocabularies are formally expressed using TEI's customization and documentation language. The conference topic is Encoding Cultures, understood both as the encoding of multiple cultures and cultural outputs as well as the variety of encoding cultures that exist within and across our communities. Encoding Cultures will be the 23rd annual meeting of the TEI community and the 11th annual Music Encoding Conference, a cross-disciplinary venue for the MEI community and all who are interested in the digital representation of music. The deadline for submissions is April 16, 2023. Please find more information and the text of the full Call for Proposals at https://teimec2023.uni-paderborn.de/cfp.html. We look forward to seeing you in Paderborn!

Anyone to share scans of Italian or English handwritten text for my DH class? We transcribe!
by Silvie Cinkova 16 Feb '23

16 Feb '23

Dear colleagues, w ould any of you be able to give me or point me to scans of handwritten English or Italian texts? I happen to teach a [ https://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/courses/npfl134 | 4EU+ class ] , where they are going to mess around with Transkribus. T his year the group mysteriously consists purely of Italians from the University of Milan. As I understood, they are economists and social scientists rather than historians, so the texts should preferably not be extremely old and illegible. It does not have to be much, 50-100 pages in total would be great. Since that teaching project was originally set up with Frenchmen, we have plenty of French data, apart from Czech, German, and Russian, but I can't expect the Italians to know these languages well enough. Any hints welcome. We will gladly give the transcriptions back to help a project! Silvie -- Mgr.

Online seminar today: Building an intelligent online library at Arcanum
by Gabriel Bodard 07 Feb '23

07 Feb '23

Material Digital Humanities seminar (London and Cluj-Napoca) 2023 (online) Building an intelligent online library at Arcanum Előd Biszak (Budapest) Arcanum was founded in 1989. In the last 3 decades it has proven itself to be one of the major players in digitizing cultural heritage in Central Europe. Our philosophy is that digitization does not end with having digital reproduction. Analyzing the digital content with modern AI tools plays a huge role when creating a sophisticated easy-to-use search engine. Our workflow includes technologies like automatic newspaper segmentation, OCR-correction, named-entity recognition and face search. It lets the users research our digital library in ways that have not been really possible before. After creating the most prominent digital library in Hungary, we are extending our technologies and content to Romania hoping to create an indispensable tool in the field of Romanian cultural heritage. The Material Digital Humanities seminar is co-hosted by the Digital Humanities Research Hub, University of London, UK, and Star-UBB Institute of Advanced Studies(Opens in new window), University Babeș-Bolyai, Cluj Napoca, Romania. All welcome. This event is free to attend, but booking is required. https://www.sas.ac.uk/events/building-intelligent-online-library-arcanum

[Call for abstracts] Museum Analytics, new directions - deadline 20 Jan
by Andrea Ballatore 17 Jan '23

17 Jan '23

📢 Call for abstracts: https://kingsdh.net/museum-analytics/ 🐦 Tweet: https://twitter.com/kingsdh/status/1592082797610647552 💡 Organisers: Dr. Andrea Ballatore, King’s College London, UK • Dr. Jamie Larkin, Chapman University, CA 🌎 Location (hybrid): King’s College London (The Strand, London, UK) and online ⏰ Submission deadline: Friday 20 January 2023 🗓 Event date: Thursday 18 May 2023 Museum Analytics: New directions Call for abstracts Data science has the capacity to revitalise our understanding of the museum sector, through reframing the history of museum development, charting museum geographies, and highlighting new data relationships in innovative and dynamic ways (e.g. Ballatore & Candlin, 2022). It can also illuminate broader relationships between museums, society, and the wider Creative and Cultural Industries (e.g. Me|Mind, 2021), to help produce more joined-up cultural policy and strategy (Centre for Cultural Value, 2022). The application of data analytics presents growing opportunities for institutions and researchers across the cultural sector. While museums often use data to develop visitor profiles and drive income generation, there is tremendous scope to leverage data in ways that reimagine the cultural work of the museum and knowledge of the museum sector. Within museums, work has taken place to use data to enhance curatorial decision-making (Tate, 2016), to personalise collections databases (Noehrer et al., 2022), and to enrich and improve visitor experiences (e.g. Villaespesa & Murphy, 2021). Stemming from the Mapping Museums project (http://www.mappingmuseums.org<http://www.mappingmuseums.org/>), this one-day conference seeks to draw together museum studies scholars, data scientists, cultural policymakers, and geographers to discuss and debate the role and scope of museum analytics and to frame the development of this area of research and practice. We seek presentations of 15 minutes that examine new directions and applications for museum analytics. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Applications of data analytics in new areas of museum practice * Innovative data collection methods in museums * Social media analytics and user-generated content * New methods for audience analytics and profiling * Data-driven museum marketing * Artificial intelligence (AI) and museums * Ethical considerations surrounding data practices and datafication in museums * Innovative data applications in digital museum contexts * Museum analytics and cultural policy * Data vocabularies and linked data for museums * Data infrastructures and capacity across the museum sector * Quantitative geographies and histories of museums * History of data science methods to study museums Please send an abstract of c300 words outlining your proposed contribution by 20th January 2023 by using this form: https://forms.office.com/r/EYEBFMUdkY Decisions on abstracts will be made by 20 February 2023. We will select abstracts in terms of relevance and originality, also considering the balance between in-person and online speakers. The objectives of the event include the development and promotion of a sector-wide agenda and, more modestly, a special issue in an international journal. The event will be free to all participants, in person and online (£0).

[CFP] Second International Workshop on Multisensory Data & Knowledge @ TheWebConf 2023
by Albert Meroño Peñuela 11 Jan '23

11 Jan '23

Call for Papers Second International Workshop on Multisensory Data & Knowledge in conjunction with TheWebConf 2023 https://odeuropa.github.io/mdk/ Important dates: - Workshop papers submissions - 6 February, 2023 - 23:59 AOE - Notification - 6 March, 2023 - Camera Ready Submission - 20 March, 2023 - Workshop Day - 1 or 2 May, 2023 Motivations: Our senses are the gateways to our memories and emotions. However, they are under-represented in language technology and semantic web research. In this workshop, two recently awarded H2020 projects, Odeuropa and Polifonia, are teaming up to advance our understanding of how smells and music are represented in texts and structured data. The topics we want to address revolve around extracting references to smells, music, context, and visual information from text as well as relevant data describing their cultural, historical and political context, and model them in the form of interlinked knowledge graphs. This research has a strong interdisciplinary character, hence the workshop has the potential to attract researchers from diverse disciplines from both social sciences and humanities and computer science. Its potential impact is significant to many application areas including: preservation and valorisation of cultural heritage, data-driven policy making in cultural heritage, urban planning, artistic performances, applications for scholars in musicology and history, applications for museums, innovation in teaching, maintenance and exploitation of large catalogues, archives and libraries. We aim at creating a reference venue where new ideas and results can be shared and lead the way towards a technological and cultural shift in how we understand and experience our cultural heritage. Topics of interest: The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Olfactory, musical and visual information extraction from text Olfactory, musical and visual knowledge representation Resources for olfactory, musical and visual knowledge Extraction of socio-cultural and historical context information from text Extraction of time, space, events, people and (musical, olfactory and visual) artifacts from text Knowledge graphs integrating olfactory, musical and visual knowledge Multilingual text corpora on musical and olfactory heritage Automatic and semi-automatic generation of language descriptions of sensory experience Methods and approaches to represent degrees of sensorial experiences (e.g. intensity, dissipation) Applications for teaching/training/valorisation of multisensory data and knowledge Submission: We solicit submissions of long and short papers covering a wide range of NLP and semantic web topics dealing with the extraction and analysis of information from multisensory data. Papers presenting collaborations among researchers with different backgrounds or from different research communities are particularly welcome. All submissions must be in PDF and written in English, single-blind and formatted in the style of the ACM template and format as the main TheWebConf 2023 conference (see the instruction for authors). Workshop papers should not exceed 12 pages in length (maximum 8 pages for the main paper content + maximum 2 pages for appendixes + maximum 2 pages for references). Papers must be submitted in PDF format according to the ACM template published in the ACM guidelines, selecting the generic “sigconf” sample. The PDF files must have all non-standard fonts embedded. Workshop papers must be self-contained and in English. The MDK 2023 proceedings will be published in the conference’s companion volume. The submission web site is https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=thewebconf2023iwpd (select ‘‘2nd International Workshop on Multisensory Data and Knowledge (MDK)’’ when creating a new submission). For any questions, please feel free to contact the organisers directly, or via thewebconf2023companion(a)easychair.org.

DHRH Seminar series, School of Advanced Study, University of London | 'Reframing failure'
by Anna-Maria Sichani 09 Jan '23

09 Jan '23

Hi all, I’m writing to share registration details for the remaining DHRH seminar sessions of the Reframing Failure series. If you’d like to attend, please register so that you can receive the correct Zoom details. All are welcome! ---- Reframing Failure Seminar Series Most of us recognise that failure is an unavoidable part of any scholarly endeavour - let alone life - especially for people who work across disciplines. Yet, for something so central to our experience, it often sits at the periphery of our writing, training, and professional discourse. The Reframing Failure seminar series explores how we can reframe failure within the digital humanities: the ways we can learn from it, talk about it, and hopefully reconsider our collective relationship to it. Conceived as a series of conversations, Reframing Failure presents an opportunity to reflect on practice. It welcomes those from within and outside the digital humanities and takes an international and interdisciplinary approach to failure. Reframing Failure is a virtual seminar series hosted by the Digital Humanities Research Hub <https://www.sas.ac.uk/digital-humanities> at the School of Advanced Study, University of London. If you have any questions about the series, please email the facilitators Anna-Maria Sichani and Michael Donnay at digitalhumanities(a)sas.ac.uk. ---- Seminar 2: DH broken - Between experimentation and degradation <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sas.a…> Wednesday 25 January 2023 at 17:00 GMT In digital humanities, things break. All the time. Whether a project has come to the end of its life or is an early prototype, ‘brokenness’ is something digital humanities practitioners will need to address. What can we learn from these encounters with brokenness and how can that shape future projects? Panellists include: - Jenny Mitcham (Digital Preservation Coalition) - Arianna Ciula (King's Digital Lab) - Sara Namusoga-Kaale (Makere University) - Frances Corry (University of Pennsylvania) - Jentery Sayers (University of Victoria) - Jane Winters (School of Advanced Study) - Chair Seminar 3: Rejected - failed funding bids, project proposals and job applications <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sas.a…> Wednesday 8 March 2023 at 17:00 GMT Rejection is an essential part of the current academic landscape and everyone has a collection of failed funding bids, project proposals and job applications. What can we learn from these rejections? Panellists include: - Lauren Tuckley (Georgetown University) - Naomi Wells (School of Advanced Study) - Additional speakers to be announced. Seminar 4: It’s complicated: collaborations and partnerships <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sas.a…> Thursday 23 March 2023 at 17:00 GMT A common challenge for digital humanities projects - and a place where many stumble - is managing collaborations across disciplines, cultures, and communities of practice. These differences raise questions of translation, inclusivity, and workplace norms for digital humanities practitioners. Panellists include: - Ruth Ahnert (Queen Mary University of London) - Helen Graham (University of Leeds) - Arran Rees (University of Leeds) - Emma Jaster (Laboratory for Global Performance & Politics) - Daniela Major (School of Advanced Study) - Caio Mello (School of Advanced Study) - Jennifer Stertzer (University of Virginia) Seminar 5: Communicating failure <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sas.a…> Thursday 11 May 2023 at 17:00 GMT Failure can be challenging to talk about, especially in the formal publication venues that count for researcher’s career advancement. What can we do to expose the ‘messiness’ of digital research when we discuss our work? Panellists include: - Britt Amell (Carleton University) - Nabeel Siddiqui (Susquehanna University) - Janneke Adema (Coventry University) - Gabby Boddard (School of Advanced Study) - Annika Rockenberger (University of Oslo) Seminar 6: After failure <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sas.a…> Tuesday 23 May 2023 at 17:00 GMT If failure forms an essential part of scholarly practice, what comes after failure? How can national organisations encourage failing productively? Are there alternative approaches to research, such as ‘slow scholarship’ or ‘failure as methodology’, that can be integrated into our own research methods? Panellists include: - Lisa Goddard (University of Victoria) - Scott B. Weingart - David Stevenson (Queen Mary University of London) - Joris van Zundert (Huygens - KNAW) -- *Dr. Anna-Maria Sichani* *Post-Doctoral Research Associate in Digital Humanities | The Congruence Engine: Digital Tools for New Collections-Based Industrial Histories (TaNC-AHRC)* *Digital Humanities Research Hub | **School of Advanced Study , University of London* *UKRI Policy and Engagement Fellow in Digital Research and Innovation Infrastructure* *Editor, The Programming Historian* *Director, ProgHist Ltd. | **ProgHist Ltd is a charity registered in England and Wales (1195875) and incorporated in England and Wales as a company limited by guarantee (12192946).* *programminghistorian.org/ <http://programminghistorian.org/>* @amsichani <https://twitter.com/amsichani> amsichani.github.io *Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail* ** Please note that although my working pattern means that I might send you an email outside of normal office hours, I do not expect a response outside the hours of your own working pattern. * *

CFP: ELO 2023 Coimbra (Jan 20; July 12-15, 2023)
by Alexandra Saum Pascual 16 Dec '22

16 Dec '22

Dear colleagues, The call for the 2023 Electronic Literature Organization Conference in Coimbra, Portugal is here! Please, help us spread the word. Looking forward to seeing you in Coimbra, Alex Link to the call https://eliterature.org/2022/11/cfp-elo-2023-coimbra-jan-20-july-12-15-2023/ pdf. also attached CFP: ELO 2023 COIMBRA (JAN 20; JULY 12-15, 2023) ELECTRONIC LITERATURE ORGANIZATION 2023 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE AND MEDIA ARTS SHOW *OVERCOMING DIVIDES: ELECTRONIC LITERATURE AND SOCIAL CHANGE* *JULY 12-15, 2023 – COIMBRA, PORTUGAL* Join us this summer for four days of digital art and scholarship at the ELO 2023 Conference and Media Arts Show in beautiful Coimbra, Portugal, the 12th to the 15th of July. The 2023 conference, “Overcoming Divides: Electronic Literature and Social Change,” advocates the dismantlement of economic, political, linguistic, and cultural barriers, focusing on the relation between art and society, as well as on the subversive potential of electronic literature. Art and literature compulsively respond to undergoing socio-political transformations. Whether overtly committed to social causes or inevitably engulfed by waves of change, writers and artists are influenced by dramatic shifts motivated by local or global issues such as climate change, economic crisis, military conflicts, and repressive or coercive government policies. The field of electronic literature, whose continuous reconfiguration is deeply intertwined with technological advancements, is no exception to this pattern. Equipped with the pervasiveness of network technology, as well as with software that can analyze and portray reality with the utmost detail, electronic literature is harnessed with adequate tools to voice environmental and social concerns and to expose oppressive and corrupt regimes. Highly experimental and focused on an introspective journey that aims to explore the creative amplitude of emerging technologies, electronic literature’s self-reflexive nature is also frequently mobilized to defy normative perspectives over literature and art, as well as to challenge deep-rooted cultural misconceptions. During this conference, we aim to explore how electronic literature uses its critical media approach, as well as its close affinity with computation, to assume a socially engaged stance. In a time when walls are being raised once again, this conference examines electronic literature’s role in the dismantlement of new and old barriers between people. ELO23 will be held in a national monument (Convento São Francisco), overlooking the University of Coimbra as well as Coimbra’s Uptown and Downtown areas, both designated World Heritage by UNESCO in 2013. Challenging the social asymmetry represented by the uptown/downtown divide, ELO23 will be extended from the university to the entire city center. Performances will be opened to the public, and exhibitions will take place at different locations in the city, thus integrating ELO Conference into Coimbra’s rich cultural life. Remote (online) participation will be limited to the scholarly dimension of the conference. We welcome scholarly and artistic proposals that explore a connection between electronic literature and the following themes, among others: · the role of literature in social change; · collaborative platforms and activist software; · digital humanities and memory preservation (archive); · environmental damage caused by digital technologies; · the impact of climate change; · language barriers, translation and linguistic diversity; · disabilities and accessibility; · mental health, trauma and cognitive diversity; · social and economic inequality; · digital literacy and societal transformation; · gender divide and identity diversity; · migrations and border enforcement; · hybridity, recombination and multilinearity as aesthetics of subversion; · documentary forms and nonfiction narrative. *ORGANIZERS *Electronic Literature Organization (ELO) Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra (FLUC) *Partners and Sponsors *Center for Portuguese Literature (CLP) Instituto de Comunicação da NOVA (ICNOVA), Universidade Nova de Lisboa Programa de Doutoramento em Materialidades da Literatura, Universidade de Coimbra Universidade Fernando Pessoa (UFP) Câmara Municipal de Coimbra Exploratório – Centro Ciência Viva de Coimbra Museu da Ciência da Universidade de Coimbra Berkeley Center for New Media *HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR PROPOSALS* All proposals will undergo a rigorous double-blind peer review process.

All deadlines are at the end of the day specified, anywhere on Earth (UTC-12). Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence (HHAI 2023) is the second international conference focusing on the study of Artificial Intelligent systems that cooperate synergistically, proactively and purposefully with humans, amplifying instead of replacing human intelligence. HHAI aims for AI systems that work together with humans, emphasising the need for adaptive, collaborative, responsible, interactive and human-centered intelligent systems that leverage human strengths and compensate for human weaknesses, while taking into account social, ethical and legal considerations. This field of study is driven by current developments in AI, but also requires fundamentally new approaches and solutions. In addition, we want to encourage collaborations across research domains such as AI, HCI, cognitive and social sciences, philosophy & ethics, complex systems, and others. In this second international conference, we invite scholars from these fields to submit their best original, new as well as in progress, visionary and existing work on Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence. Topics We invite research on different challenges in Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence. The following list of topics is illustrative, not exhaustive: * Human-AI interaction and collaboration * Adaptive human-AI co-learning and co-creation * Learning, reasoning and planning with humans and machines in the loop * User modelling and personalisation * Integration of learning and reasoning * Transparent, explainable and accountable AI * Fair, ethical, responsible and trustworthy AI * Societal awareness of AI * Multimodal machine perception of real world settings * Social signal processing * Representations learning for Communicative or Collaborative AI * Symbolic and narrative-based representations for human-centric AI * Role of Design and Compositionality of AI systems in Interpretable / Collaborative AI We welcome contributions about all types of technology, from robots and conversational agents to multi-agent systems and machine learning models.

Calling all PhD students: Survey on DH training needs
by Weis, Joelle, Dr. 13 Dec '22

13 Dec '22

[we apologise for cross-posting] Dear colleagues, the DARIAH Working Group "Community Engagement" is currently conducting a short survey among PhD students in the context of a small research project. The project aims at identifying DH training needs for PhD students from various disciplines and with different levels of expertise. As diverse as the field of DH is, as diverse are the training needs for students entering the field from various backgrounds. If you are a PhD student using DH tools or interested in using them, we would love to hear from you about your training needs, skills and awareness of existing resources: https://survey.academiccloud.de/index.php/832776?lang=en Participating in our survey might be a possibility for you to attend a workshop in Mainz, Germany, for in-person focus group interviews and joint evaluation of existing training material on 2 and 3 February 2023. In the selection process for the workshop, we will consider various disciplines, different levels of expertise, and individuals' availability and willingness to attend the workshop. In-person interviews will help develop a more complete picture of the training needs of researchers in this phase of their career. If you encounter any issues or have questions about the survey, please feel free to contact us: community_engagement(a)dariah.eu<mailto:[email protected]> We are of course very grateful if you spread the survey in your networks. Many thanks for your help! Michael, Špela, and Joëlle https://dariahre.hypotheses.org/working-groups/community-engagement
