Program of seminar series "Aspettando AIUCD2025" is not out in https://aiucd2025.dlls.univr.it/waiting-for-aiucd2025 (on Zoom, in Italian):

- April 30, 2025: R. Sprugnoli, "Il dialetto parmigiano incontra i linked data"

- May 14: S. Allés-Torrent, "Data, what else? Verso una pratica accessibile e sostenibile: il caso dell’Archive of Biographical Writing in Medieval and Early Modern Iberia"
-
- May 28: G. Pedonese - F. Frontini, "Introduzione alla Progettazione Didattica FAIR"

Happy that our paper for #SemDH2025 got accepted! It’s a result of our work in the INF project of @sfb1475. That paper got rejected twice at other venues, and I still struggle to find the best place for this kind of infrastructure-oriented work, but I think the #SemDH community will be great environment to discuss our approach to data-rich annotations for metaphor analysis! #WebAnnotation #DigitalHumanities

Friendly reminder: The fifth edition of "DH in Focus" starts today at 5:15 pm at #UniRostock ! Join us for the first lecture of the semester, presented by Deb Verhoeven ( @bestqualitycrab ), as she discusses the current collapse of knowledge institutions and the demise of #dei.

Finally actually sent my email to withdraw from #DH2025 .

I'm usually very much a "do all the things, fear of missing out" person and I've never withdrawn from a conference before, so it was actually quite a difficult email to make myself write. And I'm not sure if it was sensible to actually tell them why I'm not going, but I hope it's worth giving people actual feedback.

'University of Galway has announced the digitisation of one of Ireland’s most iconic literary journals, in a move that is hoped will bring a major piece of Irish literary heritage to a global audience.

The university has announced that 20th century Northern Irish periodical Threshold is now available online from its library archives.'

We cannot believe these 5 days are over The ‘Text as data’ #DHSpringSchool has reached its end, but the spring continues to blossom — and so do #DigitalHumanities

I missed the Global Digital Humanities conference again.

They have recordings of scholars' presentations in past years online. Fantastic variety of topics and languages!

There are several wonderful university guides to digital humanities on their library webpages, full of books and articles.

And none of them has been updated since 2012.

Will chalkboards survive in the digital world? We were surprised to see how useful this old-fashioned medium proved to be during our #DHSpringSchool — workshop leaders were so eager to use it for quick explanations Here Artjoms Şeļa is asking the participants to rate their lunch at @unipotsdam’s Mensa and immediately plots the distribution with chalk (to end up with a nice Gaussian)

I'm still fiddling with the Public Record Office Victoria API, so to help me and others get their heads around the data the API provides, I created a dashboard that gives a basic overview. It should update every Sunday. https://wragge.github.io/prov-dashboard/

Still working on a PROV API section for the #GLAMWorkbench that'll have all the code. #GLAM #archives #histodons #digitalhumanities

I'm preparing proposal for a seminar on digital humanities, focused on historical research. Any recommendations on readings?

I'd love something - probably an article - on each of:

- multi-spectral imaging
- 3-D recreations of buildings and spaces
- GIS and data mapping
- stylometry and other statistical approaches
- IIIS and fragmentology / reassembly of manuscripts
- OCR of manuscripts
- what am I forgetting?

Thanks!
