Dear all,
I thought the following would be of interest to the members of this list. Text below abridged from full version at my blog, https://epriego.wordpress.com/2017/04/06/digital-humanitieshumanidades-digit....
The event titled “Digital Humanities/Humanidades Digitales/Informatica Umanistica. An Intercultural Dialogue” that will take place on Thursday 20 April 2017 in Rome, at the Political Science Department of the Università degli Studi Roma Trehttp://www.uniroma3.it/.
This event has been organised by Domenico Fiormontehttps://twitter.com/fiormont, and will gather members of the Knowmetrics http://knowmetrics.org/equipo/ research project based at the Medialab http://medialab.ugr.es/ at the Universidad de Granada.
The speakers at this event will be
* Barbara Bordalejo, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. * Manuel Salamanca, Universidad Complutense de Madrid. * Teresa Numerico, Università Roma Tre. * Manuel Portela, Universidade de Coimbra. * Ernesto Priani, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. * Ernesto Priego, City, University of London. * Esteban Romero Frías, Universidad de Granada. * Nuria Rodríguez, Universidad de Málaga. * Amelia Sanz, Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
I am hoping to make a contribution from the vantage point of human-computer interaction designhttp://www.city.ac.uk/courses/postgraduate/human-computer-interaction-design applied to the digital humanities as critique and development of alternative, fairer, more open forms of scholarly publishing and assessment. The multilingual, multicultural, multidisciplinary nature of the event should allow for a diverse and thoughtful exchange of perspectives and knowledge sharing.
The event’s abstract and key info can be found below.
The so-called “Digital Humanities” are nowadays more and more spread at international level; institutionally, on the one hand, considering the raising of new centres and organisations, or taking into account the allocation of resources and the financing of the research, on the other, since the “digital” is turning into a privileged component of the project.
Even though the Digital Humanities could be a powerful push towards innovation, it should not be forgotten that any technology is culturally neutral. Hence, this round table seeks to reflect on the DH phenomena from the point of view of the society at large and the culture of the “South”, bringing into discussion the critical adoption of epistemological models coming from the North, at the same time an alternative vision about the relationship between knowledge, territories and digital technology is proposed.
