[cid:image001.jpg@01D3E791.9B3B8640] Caribbean Scholarship in the Digital Age est une série de séminaires en ligne mettant en avant la recherche et l'enseignement numériques et publics des Etudes Caribéennes. Cette série fournit un environnement propice à la collaboration pour les professionnels et leur permet de partager leurs expériences, de discuter de leurs projets, cela afin de favoriser la communication et de soutenir les efforts de toutes et tous. Notre prochain séminaire, Présentation du projet British Library, se déroulera le 16 mai 2018 de 11h du matin à midi (heure de Miami). Présentatrice: Marie-France Guillaume Cliquez ici pour participer à la session en ligne: https://ufl.zoom.us/j/8927374603 Présentation du projet British Library La BHFIC est fondée en 1912, et est ouverte au public depuis 1920. Elle contient différents types de journaux, ce depuis le 19 siècle. Vu l'état des documents, l'idée était donc venue de les numériser afin de les sauvegarder, et souvent la BHFIC est la seule institution à posséder ces journaux. Ainsi, en avril 2014, en partenariat avec dLOC, la BHFIC a commencé avec le travail de numérisation. En mai 2017, nous avons reçu un don de la British Library dans le cadre du programme « Endangerd Archives ». Ce qui fait que maintenant nous disposons de deux appareils de numérisation, ainsi que de deux techniciens pour faire le travail. La subvention de British Library couvre les journaux du 19e siècle et c'est un contrat qui s'étend sur deux années, incluant le salaire des deux techniciens ainsi qu'un abonnement internet. En janvier 2018, nous avons remis à la British Library un disque dur d'1 TO contenant les documents déjà numérisés. Un autre a été donné en mars avec la suite. Le travail continue et avec l'assistance de dLOC quand le besoin se fait sentir. Nous espérons à travers ce travail, dans la mesure où nous trouvons de l'aide, passer à la mise en ligne de la BHFIC, car nous voulons rendre les documents disponibles pour le monde entier. Les numériser c'est la première étape, mais c'est aussi important qu'ils soient disponibles sur internet pour la formation d'un plus grand nombre. Biographie : Marie-France Guillaume Je travaille à la BHFIC depuis septembre 2012 à titre de Directrice Exécutive. Après des études en informatique, et des séminaires en numérisation à FIU, je suis actuellement étudiante en Sciences Juridiques. Depuis mon arrivée à BHFIC, mon grand souci c'était d'essayer de sauvegarder les documents qui sont souvent en très mauvais état étant donné leur ancienneté. Grâce à dLOC, à Fokal et maintenant avec British Library, ce projet voit le jour. De 2014 à nos jours nous avons numérisé plus de 20.000 pages de journaux. Jusqu'à la subvention de British Library, nous avions un seul technicien, maintenant nous en avons deux et le travail va plus rapidement. A propos de la série de séminaires en ligne Caribbean Scholarship in the Digital Age: La Digital Library of the Caribbean (dLOC), en partenariat avec le Center for Latin American Studies at the University of Florida, Association of Caribbean University, Research and Institutional Libraries (ACURIL), la Graduate School of Information Sciences and Technologies of the University of Puerto Rico, la Latin American and Caribbean Cultural Heritage Archives roundtable (LACCHA) de la Société des Archivistes Américains (SAA), et le Seminar on the Acquisition of Latin American Library Materials (SALALM), a organisé Caribbean Scholarship in the Digital Age, une série de séminaires en ligne mettant en avant la recherche et l'enseignement numériques et publics des Etudes Caribéennes.

[CFP] 9th International Conference of Digital Archives and Digital Humanities (DADH 2018) in New Taipei City, Taiwan, December 18-21
by 洪振洲 06 May '18

06 May '18

Dear colleagues, We are pleased to inform you that this year “9th International Conference of Digital Archives and Digital Humanities (DADH 2018)” will be held in Dharma Drum Institute of Liberal Arts (DILA), Jinshan District, New Taipei City, Taiwan on December 18-21, 2018. The following is Call for Papers of DADH 2018. 9th International Conference of Digital Archives and Digital Humanities (DADH 2018) Theme: Facing the Era of AI+DH Venue: Dharma Drum Institute of Liberal Arts (DILA), Jinshan District, New Taipei City, Taiwan Date: December 18 - 21, 2018 URL: http://dadh2018.dila.edu.tw/?lang=en The Digital Humanities is an emerging field of research, the term itself having only been coined in 2004. Notwithstanding the fact that research in this area is quite new, the digital humanities have been flourishing at an unprecedented rate. In recent years, whether in Europe, America, Asia or Taiwan, various research institutes and teams dedicated to research and development in the digital humanities have been established. This demonstrates the high level of interest in and importance attached to this field by the community. The core concept of the field of digital humanities is the application of modern digital technologies to the disciplines of the traditional humanities, in order to overcome the limitations of traditional research methodologies. This combination of knowledge and technology, in an interdisciplinary manner, is unachievable in any single area. The development of the field of digital humanities is in fact indissociable from the progress of new digital technologies. These new technologies not only provide new methods of data analysis, but can also be used to create new types of digital resources. In recent years, major breakthroughs have been made in the field of artificial intelligence. Various types of A.I. technologies have gradually evolved from theoretical speculation into concrete reality with practical applications, with remarkable results. However, to answer what the intelligence is makes A.I. deeply related to humanities. For example, Natural Language Processing technology in A.I. assembles an important subdomain of linguistics — computational linguistics. Besides, A.I. technologies which mimic the structure of human intelligence, such as the Semantic Web, Ontology, the Knowledge Graph, Linked Open Data, are based on the theory of ontology in philosophy. What kind of applications and breakthroughs can these digital technologies bring to the digital humanities? How should humanities scholars view the results of an artificial intelligence based on digital resources? Compared to traditional humanities studies which only consider a limited corpus of text, artificial intelligence can process a large body of data, with the exception of a limited number of research methods. In the last analysis, do these new technologies provide more help for the study of the humanities, or are their results unconvincing? All these topics are subjects this conferences seeks to examine and discuss. Given the growth of the field of the digital humanities, this conference will continue over the years to research every facet of the digital humanities, but will also include the topic of ‘Facing the Era of AI+DH’ as its theme. We invite scholars and experts, at home and abroad, to participate in this session, and look forward to creating new milestones in digital studies through dialog and exchange. *Topics of Interest* We invite submissions of abstracts relating (but not limited) to the following aspects of artificial intelligence and digital humanities: - Development of digital technologies and their applications to help advance humanities studies (including digital media, data mining, software design, and modeling, etc.). - Applications of text mining, social network analysis, visualization and graphics. - Interdisciplinary research and humanities research in literature studies, linguistics, culture, history, etc., conducted with digital data and technology. - Digital Humanities Theory and Epistemology - Impact of digital humanities on humanities education. - Innovative forms of digital arts such as music, film and theatre; and digital applications such as digital design, virtual reality, games and new media. - Other DH-related topics. *Submission Guidelines* - Submission of a single paper abstract, poster abstract, or a panel proposal is welcomed. - All submissions are to be done online. (website: https://easychair.org/ conferences/?conf=dadh2018) - Submitted abstract for a single paper should contain 1,000-3,000 words. - Submitted abstract for a poster should contain 750-1,500 words. - Submitted panel proposal should contain at least 1,500 words.

[One Week Reminder] [CFP] The Japanese Association for Digital Humanities 2018 at Tokyo, September 9-11
by KITAMOTO Asanobu 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

Dear colleagues, This year, annual conference of the Japanese Association for Digital Humanities (JADH) will be held at Tokyo, September 9-11. The deadline is May 8. We still have one week to prepare the abstract! ****************** CALL FOR PAPERS (Deadline May 8) ****************** JADH (The Japanese Association for Digital Humanities) conference 2018 co-located with TEI (Text Encoding Initiative Consortium) conference 2018 http://conf2018.jadh.org/ ********************************************************************** - Submission Deadline: May 8, 2018 - Notification of Acceptance: May 31, 2018 - Conference date: September 9-11, 2018 - Venue: Hitotsubashi Hall, Tokyo The conference will feature posters, papers and panels. We invite proposals globally on all aspects of digital humanities, and especially encourage papers treating topics that deal with practices that aim to cross borders, for example, between academic fields, media, languages, cultures, organizations, and so on, as related to the field of digital humanities. Theme: "Leveraging Open Data" Open Data has recently been a driver in various fields. The notion, activities, and the data themselves have gradually been gaining attention in the humanities. Large scale reusable data and greater integration of open data provide new research opportunities with relatively few costs. Open data has been strongly assisted by recent developments in digital tools, guidelines and frameworks that leverage digital cultural resources. It has become more important to share data and tools and to discuss their use in the context of digital humanities. This year we strongly encourage the submission of proposals about methods, results, and problems of leveraging open data in the humanities. With this as our suggested central focus, we nonetheless welcome papers on a broad range of DH topics. Abstract: 500-1000 words in length in English, including title. Please submit abstracts on the open conference system for conference below by May 8, 2018.

Webinar: Ramble Bahamas, May 7, 2018, 11am-12pm (Miami Time).
by Taylor,Laurie Nancy Francesca 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

Good morning, Please share the news on the next webinar in the Caribbean Studies in the Digital Age series. Please let me know on any questions. Best wishes, Laurie [cid:image001.jpg@01D3E067.A1D3EC30] Caribbean Scholarship in the Digital Age is a webinar series showcasing digital and/as public research and teaching in Caribbean Studies. The series provides a collaborative space for professionals to share on projects and experiences to foster communication and support our shared constellations of communities of practice. Please join us for an upcoming event, Ramble Bahamas, May 7, 2018, 11am-12pm (Miami Time). Presenters: Dr. Tracey Thompson and Jessica Dawson, University of The Bahamas Click here to participate in the online event: https://ufl.zoom.us/j/8927374603 About the Presentation: 2017 marked the fiftieth anniversary of a watershed in Bahamian political life: the advent of majority rule. So as to pay tribute to that anniversary in an appealing and enduring way, "From Dat Time": The Oral & Public History Institute of the University of The Bahamas ("FDT") launched an ambitious venture in the field of digital humanities. The "FDT" team, guided by the Institute's mandate to develop curricular and recreational materials in a variety of media, committed itself to fashioning a digital heritage trail through which Bahamian students could retrace important steps in the Bahamian political story. The team went further: it envisioned building a platform that could serve as a publication engine for all research undertaken by the Institute. Such a platform, so the team judged, would augment limited scholarly publication in the field of Bahamian political history. It would widen access to historical literature among students and educators located throughout the far-flung Bahamian archipelago. It would draw on the Institute's strength as a vehicle devoted to collecting and preserving oral narratives of community elders, many of whom had played significant roles in social, educational, and political transformations in the mid-1900s. It would press into service a media archive consisting of rare photos and film from the 1960s and 1970s - images long hidden from public view. The result of the team's investment was Ramble Bahamas. Utilizing the Omeka content management system and the Curatescape framework, Ramble Bahamas presents geographically-tagged exhibits about historically significant places and objects in The Bahamas. Each exhibit is comprised of a narrative outlining the importance of the location or object, relevant historic and contemporary images, and oral history audio or video clips in which informed narrators speak of events associated with the location or object. Since its launch in November 2016, Ramble Bahamas has been introduced to students at the University of The Bahamas and to high school teachers of History and Geography. Plans are under way to integrate the platform into national curricula in History so as to advance the nation-building mandate of the university. About the Speakers: Tracey Thompson, PhD: As Director of "From Dat Time": The Oral & Public History Institute of the University of The Bahamas, Tracey Thompson oversees the research programme and administrative processes of the institute. Tracey has been involved in research, teaching, and administration at the University of The Bahamas for more than twenty-five years. Her research foci lie principally in African and African Diaspora History, in Philosophy of History, in Oral History, and in Public History. Jessica Dawson, MA: In her capacity as Public History Fellow in Research & Technology for "From Dat Time": The Oral & Public History Institute of the University of The Bahamas, Jessica Dawson acted as webmaster and curator for Ramble Bahamas. Prior to this, she taught tertiary courses in the field of cultural anthropology and worked in historic preservation. She holds a B.A. in Anthropology from Washington State University and an M.A. in American Studies & Public History from Youngstown State University. About the Caribbean Scholarship in the Digital Age Webinar Series: The Digital Library of the Caribbean (dLOC), in partnership with the Center for Latin American Studies at the University of Florida, Association of Caribbean University, Research and Institutional Libraries (ACURIL), the Graduate School of Information Sciences and Technologies of the University of Puerto Rico, the Latin American and Caribbean Cultural Heritage Archives roundtable (LACCHA) of the Society of American Archivists (SAA), and the Seminar on the Acquisition of Latin American Library Materials (SALALM), has organized a series of online events, Caribbean Scholarship in the Digital Age, a webinar series showcasing digital and/as public research and teaching in Caribbean Studies.

FW: Survey: Attitudes towards digital culture and technology in the Modern Foreign Languages (MFL)
by Spence, Paul 23 Apr '18

23 Apr '18

Dear all This may interest people working with Modern (Foreign) Languages - please forward as appropriate. ** Apologies for cross-posting ** As part of the AHRC-funded (OWRI) 'Language Acts & Worldmaking' project, we are conducting a survey on attitudes towards digital culture and technology in the Modern Foreign Languages, with attention to both theory and practice. If your work/research involves Modern Foreign Languages in some way, we would be very interested to hear about your experiences and invite you to take part in our survey. The survey is aimed at people with any level of digital expertise, and whose work involves Modern Foreign Languages in any role (whether that be as researcher, learner, teacher, funder, policy-maker, digital practitioner, cultural practitioner or other). For most participants, the survey will take about 15 minutes. For those who have strong involvement in digital theory or practice, you will be offered additional optional questions which might make the survey longer. We will analyse the survey results for future presentation and publication - all results will be anonymised- and will present initial findings in the coming year. This survey is part of a research project called 'Modern Foreign Languages Research: Digital Mediations' which was submitted to, and approved by, the King's College Research Ethics committee under its Minimal Ethical Risk Registration Process (REC Reference Number: MR/17/18-280). The survey will be open until 31st May 2018 If you have any questions, please contact Paul Spence at paul.spence(a)kcl.ac.uk Link to survey: https://kings.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/attitudes-towards-dc-in-mfl Many thanks Paul Spence and Renata Brandão King's College London For more information about our research, see https://languageacts.org/digital-mediations/ -- Paul Spence Senior Lecturer Department of Digital Humanities King's College London Strand London WC2R 2LS paul.spence(a)kcl.ac.uk https://www.kcl.ac.uk/artshums/depts/ddh/index.aspx Programme Convenor for MA in Digital Humanities Co-Investigator on Language Acts & Worldmaking project https://languageacts.org/digital-mediations/ Twitter: @dhpaulspence (English)/@hdpaulspence (castellano)
