Reminder: Symposium on Cultural Heritage Markup CFP

Posted on by theteiadmin

Cultural Heritage Markup:
Using Markup to preserve, understand, and disseminate cultural heritage materials: a Balisage pre-conference symposium

Monday August 10, 2015
Bethesda North Marriott Hotel & Conference Center, Bethesda, MD, USA

Markup and markup technologies are used in a wide variety of cultural heritage projects by linguists, students of literature, librarians, historians, curators, and others. Markup is used behind the scenes in archives, libraries, and museums to create and store metadata and the textual content of a wide variety of materials both textual and artefactual. We want to know how you or your project are using markup to preserve, analyse, disseminate, or curate materials of long-term value to society.

Registration open: “Social Knowledge Creation in the Humanities” @ DHSI 2015 (June 7)

Posted on by theteiadmin

“Social Knowledge Creation in the Humanities,” our INKE- and Iter-hosted event aligned with DHSI, will take place from 1pm-4pm on Sunday June 7th 2015 in Hickman 105 on the UVic campus. This event will provoke conversation and stimulate activity around issues of social knowledge creation. We welcome researchers, students, and practitioners who wish to engage intellectually with this topic, as well as to do some hands-on experimentation with related practices and initiatives.

The program, posted on dhsi.org/events.php, will include an opening talk by Dr. John Maxwell (SFU), as well as lightning paper sessions and workshops. This event is open and free for all DHSI 2015 attendees. If you are interested in joining us, please confirm your participation by May 1st 2015 by registering for the event via https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/social-knowledge-creation-in-the-humanities-tickets-16210267346.

How can we shape the future of scholarly production to address the needs of many? What existing tools and platforms stimulate knowledge creation across communities? In the digital age, what role do scholars play in inspiring, developing, or harnessing social knowledge creation? Join us on June 7th to discuss these questions and more.

Please do not hesitate to direct any inquiries or concerns to me at alyssaarbuckle@gmail.com.
