Intermediality and Computational Humanities Hackathon, 14-15 Nov in Vienna
* sorry for cross-posting * Dear colleagues, The Digital Humanities Team at the University of Vienna and the Ottoman Nature in Travelogues (ONiT) project are pleased to announce a hackathon dedicated to exploring current challenges and solutions related to the analysis of texts, images, and multimodal sources. The hackathon is targeting scholars with backgrounds in Arts and Humanities as well as Computer Science with an interest in Computational Humanities methods. The aim of the hackathon is to bring together tool providers and art and history researchers to collaboratively focus on the analysis of digitised texts, images, or an inter-medial approach. The hackathon will be a two-day event starting on Thursday, November 14 at 9:00 CET and ending on Friday, November 15 at 15:00 CET. On the first day of the event, participants will be invited to propose topics and challenges related to the theme of the hackathon that they wish to work on. Working groups will then be formed from the participants to investigate these challenges. The working groups will be flexible, and participants will be welcome to work on multiple topics throughout the course of the event. With this in mind, participants are invited to suggest for potential topics and lines of enquiry in the registration form below. The hackathon will include two keynote lectures by Thomas Smits/Melvin Wevers and Matteo Valleriani. A social dinner for the participants and small bursaries sponsored by the University of Vienna, the Austrian Academy of Sciences, and the ONiT project will be available as necessary for the covering of travel costs.
