Workshop 2023: Graz

Overview

DH2023’s theme “Collaboration as Opportunity” focuses on transdisciplinary and transnational collaboration, asking to explore how mutual empowerment and collaboration can transform regional hubs of expertise to international networks of excellent research, to the benefit of the global DH community. This workshop will take place on Tuesday, July 11th, 2023.

The AVinDH SIG Workshop will bring together DH scholars interested in analyzing AV materials. All DH2023 attendees are welcome to join. One does not have to be a member of the AVinDH SIG, although we would be delighted to have you join our mailing list here!

The day-long workshop will include:

  • Interactive Tutorial that share approaches and methods for computational image and audio analysis.
  • Lightning Shorts where participants can briefly share projects, with a focus on works in progress
  • An “Unconference” to share mutually-engaging topics and collaboratively develop conversations.

The Lightning Shorts session will focus on current research in AV DH.  Each participant will have five-minutes to introduce their work. Participants in the lightning shorts must also sign-up for the day-long AVinDH workshop.
