Talk: Thinking about Culture (not) as Data (Lev Manovich, June 4, online)
by Daniil Skorinkin 20 May '24

20 May '24

Dear fellow DH-ers, Digital Humanities Network Potsdam invites you to another 'Code & Culture' online lecture on June 4. This time, we'll have Prof. Lev Manovich (CUNY), a prominent theorist of digital culture and the author of the term 'Cultural Analytics'. Title: Thinking about Culture (not) as Data Abstract: Why do we often approach cultural data using ideas developed in the 18th and 19th century, before digital computers and big data? Can we think about cultural objects and histories without using categories? What can AI see in cultural artefacts, and what it remains blind to? Lev Manovich will discuss what he sees as some of the biggest challenges in looking at culture with computers, and suggest some ways to address those challenges. 🗓️ The talk will take place online on June 4 at 10:00 AM CEST. Please register here to get the Zoom link: https://www.uni-potsdam.de/de/digital-humanities/aktivitaeten/code-and-cult… Best, Daniil Skorinkin, DH coordinator, Uni Potsdam

Registration: UK-Ireland DH 2024 Annual Event
by Michael Donnay 14 May '24

14 May '24

Dear colleagues, The UK-Ireland Digital Humanities Association invites you to register for its 2024 Annual Event<https://digitalhumanities-uk-ie.org/2024-annual-event/>. The theme for this year's event is Inclusivity Across Sectors / Uileghabhálacht Thar Earnálacha, highlighting one of the Association's Core Values. One of the dreams of information and communication technologies is that of equitable and open access to information, to services, and to opportunities. We know, however, that this dream is not always reflected in reality - especially in the digital humanities, where the expertise, skills and knowledge of a broad range of sectors, disciplines and organisations inform everything we do. It is necessary to constantly challenge our own claims and understanding of inclusivity. This inevitably involves exploring the situated and intersectional inequities of technological systems, and the cultures and societies that build them. The event will examine inclusive approaches to digital humanities research and practice broadly conceptualised, with an emphasis on intersectional approach to examining barriers to inclusion within different national, organisational, and disciplinary contexts. We are pleased to announce that our keynote roundtable will be moderated by Aoibhie McCarthy, artistic director at Sample Studios, who will be in conversation with Valerie Byrne (Cork City Council), Melissa Terras (University of Edinburgh), and Francesca Farmer (Royal Albert Memorial Museum/University of Exeter). The event will be held in-person at University College Cork, with portions of the event available to view online. The fee for attending the event in-person will be £35. Students, early career researchers and professionals, and independent scholars can attend at a discounted rate of £20. For those unable to attend in person, free online-only tickets are available. The deadline to register for in-person attendance is 5:00 PM BST on Monday, 20 May 2024.

CfP: European Cultural Memory in its Digitalization - Inventing Cultural Memory in the 21st Century?, Graz 6./7.11.2024
by Georg Vogeler 10 May '24

10 May '24

Dear European Digital Humanists, we extended the deadline for proposal submissions for the international conference *"European Cultural Memory in its Digitalization - Inventing Cultural Memory in the 21st Century?"* to *19.5.2024* The concept of cultural heritage has been in circulation for decades (e.g. UNESCO convention 1972) if not centuries (e.g. discussion on repatriation of artworks at the Congress of Vienna, 1815), in scientific, cultural and policy contexts. The extensive digitization of collections in archives, museums, and libraries, as well as the digital dissemination and mediation of cultural artefacts has also been framed as supporting the process of Europeanization. For instance, the mission of Europeana documents this interest in creating a European cultural identity (Capurro 2023). The very idea of a European heritage is embedded with the vision and policies of the European Union, fostering a shared European identity and memory on the grounds of a common culture and history as well as the rejection of the violent experiences of the 20th century (Radonic 2023). The conference “European Cultural Memory in its Digitalization” focuses on the intersection of cultural heritage, digital transformation and Europeanisation processes, also responding to the recent dynamic trends in Artificial Intelligence. It aims to question and problematize dimensions of cultural heritage from the European past in the context of contemporary social, cultural and technological transformations. It thus takes into account both the transformative (technological) and representational (discursive) potentials of digitalization of cultural heritage. This conference will discuss the European and national cultural and research policy strategies in the context of cultural heritage and its digital transformation in general and through the lens of specific projects engaging in this process. Furthermore, recent collaborations between digital humanities and cultural heritage organizations and researchers will be discussed. By contextualizing heritage in the European digital society agenda, general digital transformation processes, datafication and artificial intelligence developments, we will drive forward current debates in Digital Humanities and Memory Studies. The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers and scholars from various disciplines and reflect on the state of research in the field, opening up fresh discussions and dialogue. We invite you to submit contributions, in particular on the following themes: * National/transnational/European policies, identities and the digital cultural heritage field * (strategies, funding, trends, transformations, etc.); Promises and expectations of digitalization, datafication and artificial intelligence in the context of the cultural heritage of Europe and the Europeanization processes; * Research and reflections about relevant actors, institutions, networks and actants in these processes (GLAMs, universities, NGOs, independent initiatives, commons, etc.); * Different types of digital cultural heritage (including archaeological, architectural, intangible cultural heritage, moveable cultural relics and museums, ancient books and archives, internet and new media digital artistic and creative content) and their material, infrastructural and discursive dimensions. * Transformation of cultural memory in the age of digitalization. We also encourage contributions that explore other related topics, including social, historical, cultural, technological, political, educational, ecological, communicational, organizational, critical, academic and other dimensions at the intersection of European memory studies and digital cultural heritage research. Concept and organization: Georg Vogeler (ZIM <https://informationsmodellierung.uni-graz.at/>), Gerald Lamprecht (CJS <https://juedischestudien.uni-graz.at/>), Dušan Ristić (ZIM <https://informationsmodellierung.uni-graz.at/>), Chiara Zuanni (ZIM <https://informationsmodellierung.uni-graz.at/>) The organizers are seeking funding, and travel and accommodation expenses will be covered according to available resources. Independent scholars as well as early career researchers will be given priority for financial support. Please send an abstract (max. 300 words) and a short CV to: office.cjs(a)uni-graz.at by April 31, 2024 *May 19th, 2024*.

Please do share the invite widely. -- Introduction to Text Analysis - using the HathiTrust Research Center (HTRC) tools to analyse various types of textual data Woburn Suite, G22/26, Ground Floor, Senate House, Malet Street, London WC1E 7HU 30 May 2024, 11:00AM - 1:00PM Add to calendar<https://ilcs.sas.ac.uk/ics/89788> Book HERE<https://ilcs.sas.ac.uk/events/introduction-text-analysis-using-hathitrust-r…> Led by: Dr Isabella Magni (University of Sheffield) Join us for an interactive, hands-on workshop focusing on tools and methods to mine and analyse textual data, using the HathiTrust Research Center’s data and tools as practical case study. The HathiTrust Research Center (HTRC) facilitates text and data mining uses of the HathiTrust (HT) corpus, which contains over 18 million items digitised by partner libraries. This massive collection is available for computational analysis for users worldwide: the HTRC Analytics site also offers web-based, click-and-run tools to perform computational text analysis on volumes in the HathiTrust Digital Library, including topic modeling, Named Entity Recognition and token count. An example of the use of HTRC data and tools is the SCWAReD project(Opens in new window), which aimed at creating and analysing curated digital collections, highlighting the work of historically under-resourced and marginalised textual communities. This workshop will introduce HTRC, its data and analytical tools using the case study of the SCWAReDproject(Opens in new window), and will include hands-on practice with HTRC Analytics.

Within these intersecting disciplinary contexts, there remains an ongoing need to explore how digital textual studies respond to more recent developments, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI). While this critical conversation and event emerges from discussions with colleagues in French and Francophone Studies, and based primarily at French-speaking institutions, the event seeks to draw out broader insights and lessons for Languages and Cultures scholars and textual scholars widely defined across Comparative Studies, English, and Classics, and to contribute to efforts to raise the visibility of DH research from beyond predominantly Anglophone contexts. During the roundtable, speakers representing different research environments and institutional roles, will share their views, reflections, and constructive criticism, on the key points of (1) Innovation in the field of digital textual scholarship; (2) Institutional Policies & Funding; (3) Accessibility; (4) Opportunities/Future Directions.

CFP Extension: Born-Digital Collections, Archives and Memory
by Michael Donnay 10 May '24

10 May '24

Dear colleagues, The Digital Humanities Research Hub at the School of Advanced Study, University of London, invites submissions for the inaugural Born-Digital Collections, Archives and Memory conference, to be hosted at the University of London and online from 2-4 April 2025 in collaboration with colleagues from Aarhus University, the British Library, and the Endangered Material Knowledge Programme at the British Museum. The deadline for submissions for the Born-Digital Collections, Archives and Memory Conference has been extended to Friday, 7 June 2024. We are also delighted to announce our first Keynote Speaker, Dorothy Berry, Digital Curator at the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture, where her focus is on enhancing public access to digital cultural heritage materials and creating new virtual environments for exploring Black history. Her work explores the intersections of information discovery and African American history, spanning from researching early mentions of African American concert music performances in newspaper databases to curating exhibits showcasing transatlantic art inspired by African American film. Key Information: * Dates: 2 - 4 April 2025 * Venue: University of London, London, UK & Online * CFP Deadline [extended]: 7 June 2024 * Notification of acceptance: early August 2024 * Submission link: https://easychair.org/cfp/borndigital2025 Digital research in the arts and humanities has traditionally focused on digitised objects and archives. However, born-digital cultural materials that originate and circulate across a range of formats and platforms are rapidly expanding and raising new opportunities and challenges for research, archiving and collecting communities. Collecting, accessing and sharing born-digital objects and data presents a range of complex technical, legal and ethical challenges that, if unaddressed, threaten the archival and research futures of these vital cultural materials and records of the 21st century. Moreover, the environments, contexts and formats through which born-digital records are mediated necessitate reconceptualising the materials and practices we associate with cultural heritage and memory. Research and practitioner communities working with born-digital materials are growing and their interests are varied, from digital cultures and intangible cultural heritage to web archives, electronic literatures and social media. This international conference seeks to further an interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral discussion on how the born-digital transforms what and how we research in the humanities. We invite contributions from researchers and practitioners involved in any way in accessing or developing born-digital collections and archives, and interested in exploring the novel and transformative effects of born-digital cultural heritage. More details can be found at the conference website<https://www.sas.ac.uk/borndigital2025> and the full CFP and submission portal is available here: https://easychair.org/cfp/borndigital2025 If you have any questions, please contact the Organising Committee at borndigital(a)sas.ac.uk<mailto:[email protected]>.

'Code & culture' talk #2: from the technical binary code to the cultural code of gender (Mareike Schumacher, University of Stuttgart)
by Daniil Skorinkin 19 Apr '24

19 Apr '24

Dear DH-colleagues, (apologies for cross-posting) we (DH Potsdam) invite you to our next online 'Code & culture' lecture titled 'The cultural code of gender: from binary classes to a complex phenomenon of literary characterisation', by Prof. Dr. Mareike Schumacher (currently assistant professor for Digital Humanities at the University of Stuttgart). Here is the abstract for the talk: Can the two classes "male" and "female" – often understood as a binary either-or distinction – actually be modeled as basic units ("primitives") that can be arranged into complex codes designating all facets of gender in its multiplicity? In this talk, an analogy between the technical binary code and the cultural code of gender is used to test the hypothesis that gender can be seen as a discrete phenomenon constructed through varying combinations of male and female features. Additionally, it is brought into question whether "neutral" should be seen as a third basic unit and whether there might be more “gender primitives”. The presentation also includes a case study from Computational Literary Studies, in which several corpora consisting of literary texts in the German language are analyzed. In the study, gender roles such as ‘father’, ‘young girl’, or ‘person’ are classified according to basic gender units. By analysis of almost 400 character profiles, typical and atypical gender codes are defined, and a spheric notion of gender is introduced. Time and place: 🗓️ May 7, 2024 , 18:30 (CEST), Zoom. Please register here to get the Zoom link: https://www.uni-potsdam.de/de/digital-humanities/aktivitaeten/code-and-cult… This lecture is part of the 'Code & culture' series of open talks <https://www.uni-potsdam.de/de/digital-humanities/aktivitaeten/code-and-cult…> at the DH Network Potsdam .

[CfP] Web/Comics workshop, HT'24 conference
by Francesca.Benatti [she/her] 15 Apr '24

15 Apr '24

Dear EADH list members, Please find below a Call for Papers for the second Web/Comics workshop, co-located with the Hypertext 2024 conference. ***Submission deadline 15 June 2024 **** Web/Comics 2024: Creativity in Small Spaces is the second in a new workshop series for the ACM Hypertext conference https://ht.acm.org/ht2024/. Web/Comics 2024 wants to investigate whether webcomics exemplify the expansion of hypertext beyond the linearity of information processing systems into a type of interactivity that is nonlinear (multicursal) and ludic. It uses webcomics to explore the boundaries of hypertext, for example by assessing its utility to the reader or user and its effects on “readers’ ongoing process of establishing meaning and coherence. At the same time, it asks how profoundly new tools such as text-to-image models and other forms of generative AI are altering comics production and consumption. The workshop will be held in conjunction with the Hypertext 2024 conference, 10-13 September, at the University of Poznań, Poland. The workshop will take place in a hybrid modality. While in-person attendance is preferred, we will allow remote presentations to maximize inclusivity. Participants are asked to submit a short lightning paper (2-4 pages) representing current work or original thinking in this area with the intention of encouraging interactive group discussion. The work presented should directly engage with the hypertextual specificity of webcomics.

Umanistica Digitale goes rolling!
by Fabio Ciotti 05 Apr '24

05 Apr '24

Dear colleagues I am pleased to announce that Umanistica Digitale (UD, https://umanisticadigitale.unibo.it/) the scientific journal of the AIUCD (http:www.asiucd.org), will become a rolling publication journal while maintaining its six-monthly periodicity. Accordingly, articles submitted by authors to the journal will be sent for processing immediately and published immediately after the end of the evaluation phase. Every six months, the issue will be closed in July and December, and the book reviews/project reports (that will not benefit from immediate publication for technical reasons) will be added. This model has the advantage of making the publication of scientific papers submitted to UD much faster and of streamlining the editorial workload for both the evaluation and the editorial part while keeping the formality required by many academic evaluation and funding agencies. We are convinced that in the domain of Digital Humanities, the timeliness with which a research product is made public and enters the scientific debate of the community is of utmost importance. In the near future, the editorial staff will assess the feasibility of further innovations such as open peer review. Let me remind you that UD publishes articles in Italian and English, is indexed on Scopus (https://www.scopus.com/sourceid/21101060465 Citescore 2023: 0.8) and is an A-level journal in many disciplinary areas for the Italian evaluation Agency ANVUR (mandatory for obtaining Italian professorship habilitation). Therefore, the Editorial Board of UD would like to renew the invitation to send proposals to the global DH scientific community. Best regards, Fabio Ciotti UD Editor-in-Chief -- Professor Fabio Ciotti Dept. "Studi letterari, filosofici e di storia dell’arte" University of Roma "Tor Vergata" Chair, European Association for Digital Humanities (EADH) Editor-in-Chief, "Umanistica Digitale" https://umanisticadigitale.unibo.it/ @Fabio_Ciotti @[email protected] f.ciotti(a)pec.it
