The St Chad Gospels and Lichfield Cathedral's Wycliffe New Testament Online
by Endres, William F 02 Jan '13

02 Jan '13

Dear Colleagues, I should have sent this announcement out in the fall, but I now have Lichfield Cathedral's St Chad Gospels (8th century) and Wycliffe New Testament (~1410) available online: http://lichfield.as.uky.edu. I used a monochrome camera for the imaging, taking at least twelve different spectral bands for each page. I've designed the website to allow for the overlay of any two images within a page's image set, including RGB. I have a slide bar to allow for the adjustment of the top image's transparency to help sort out hard to discern details. Best, Bill -- Bill Endres University of Kentucky Division of Writing, Rhetoric and Digital Studies Lexington, KY 40506 859-257-8337

13 Dec '12

Dear Colleagues, We hope this finds you well. As you may recall, Dr. Clement and I are looking for participants to help us with a project that focuses on evaluation methods and current standards for digital scholarly projects. A big THANK YOU to everyone who has filled out our survey and/or been interviewed. We can't stress enough how valuable your feedback has been, and we are very grateful. However, we'd still like to hear more voices from the community. If you haven't had a chance to fill out the survey but would like to do so, it is located at the following link: https://qtrial.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_b89IXl4msVon4u9 We'll keep the link open for a few more weeks, so it's not too late to share your thoughts. Squeamish of surveys? No problem. Please let Sarah know if you'd prefer to dialogue about this instead, and she will arrange a short interview with you via Skype. Other arrangements can be made as necessary, so just let her know. Again, thank you for your time, and best wishes for you and yours in the holiday season, Regards, Sarah Pfannenschmidt, MSIS candidate, University of Texas at Austin School of Information Dr. Tanya Clement, Assistant Professor, University of Texas at Austin School of Information

The appointment is for 100% (full time) and you will be based in the Department of Digital Humanities at King’s College London but dedicated to the DigiPal project . Applications close on 1 January 2013, with interviews planned for soon after that. We are looking for an immediate start, though of course we understand that you may have other commitments.

Fwd: Digital Humanities Meeting: Mining Spatial Descriptions in Medieval Charters
by Orietta Da Rold 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

FYI Best, w Orietta From: Archivists, conservators and records managers. [mailto:ARCHIVES-NRA@JISCMAIL.AC.UK] On Behalf Of Dixon, Simon N. (Dr.) Sent: 23 November 2012 17:30 To: ARCHIVES-NRA(a)JISCMAIL.AC.UK Subject: Digital Humanities Meeting: Mining Spatial Descriptions in Medieval Charters You are warmly invited to the next London Digital Humanities Group meeting: 11th December, 2012 5.15pm, Jessel Room, Senate House, London ChartEx: mining spatial descriptions in medieval charters. www.chartex.org The ChartEx consortium is an innovative partnership between historians, archivists, and experts in computer science and artificial intelligence from Canada, the Netherlands, the UK and the US. It is funded by the Digging into Data Challenge, 2012-13. The ChartEx Project is developing new ways of exploring the full text content of digital historical records. In particular it is exploring the descriptions of parcels of property found in medieval charters and their associations with three key entities (people, places and events). The new ChartEx tools will use a combination of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Data Mining to extract information about places, people and events from the charters automatically and find new relationships between them. The project will then build an interactive "virtual workbench" that will allow historians, archivists and others interested in charters to explore the information extracted and add further information and comments. The seminar will present progress to date and invite further discussion. Participants in the Seminar will include historian Sarah Rees Jones (York), computational linguist Roger Evans (Brighton), and Helen Petrie, Professor of Human Computer Interaction (York). All are welcome.

# apologies for cross-postings # # German version below # Call for Papers: Kodikologie und Paläographie im Digitalen Zeitalter III / Codicology and Palaeography in the Digital Age III August 16, 2012 Following up on two previous publications in the series “Codicology and Palaeography in the Digital Age” (CPDA I, 2009 [1]; CPDA II, 2011 [2]), the Institute of Documentology and Scholarly Editing (IDE) wants to continue to document and compare different approaches to scholarly problems in the fields of codicology and palaeography. For this reason the IDE plans to publish a third volume of "Codicology and Palaeography in the Digital Age" and asks for submissions. Topics may cover but are not limited to: - image capturing (multispectral, thermography, etc) - image processing (segmentation, pattern recognition, layout extraction, etc.) - analysis of materials (ink, writing material etc.) - description, identification, and classification of hand, script, or type features - semantic description (application of norm data, RDF, ontologies, etc) - storage, collection, cumulation, and exchange of, and access to information (meta catalogs, portals) - collaborative “Erschließung”, i.e. description / transcription / edition (user generated description/content) - quantitative codicology and bibliography - new ways of presentation (visualisation, mobile apps, integral presentation of images, description, annotation, transcription, edition) We would like to stimulate the exchange between disciplines and user groups by explicitly inviting papers covering non-Western manuscripts, non-manuscript materials, e.g inscriptions, incunabula, etc. Contributions which explore these and similar subjects (cf. previous CfP [3]) are most welcome and can be submitted in English, French, German, Italian or Spanish. We plan to continue our policy of open access publication. Proposals of not more than 500 words should be sent by 22 December 2012 to kpdz-iii(a)i-d-e.de.
