Narrating Irish Female Development, 1916-2018 (Edinburgh UP, 2024) studies narratives of Irish female and feminized development, arguing that these postmodern  narratives present Irish female maturation as disordered and often deliberately disorderly. The first full-length study of the Irish female  coming of age story, the book develops a feminist psychoanalytic narratology, derived from the belated oedipalization of Joyce's bildungsheld, to read these stories. This study argues that all Irish maturation stories are shaped by the uneven and belated maturation story  of the Irish republic itself, which took as its avatar the Irish woman,  whose citizenship in that republic was unrealized, as indeed was her citizenship in an Irish republic of letters. Dougherty takes the writing  of Irish women as seriously as other critics have taken Joyce's work. Discusses texts by James Joyce, John McGahern, Hannah Lynch, Kate O'Brien, Lady Gregory, Maud Gonne, Mary Colum, Elizabeth Bowen, Edna O'Brien, Dervla Murphy, Clare Boylan, Nuala O'Faolain, Eavan Boland, Anne Enright, Claire Keegan, Eimear McBride, Éilís ní Dhuibhne, Melatu Uche Okorie, and Soula Emmanuel Examines the form, narration, and content of fictional, non-fictional, and national narratives Develops a feminist psychoanalytic narratology Synthesizes historical, sociojuridical, feminist, post-colonial, and literary historical narratives of Irish development Jane Elizabeth Dougherty is Professor in the School of Literature, Writing and Digital Humanities and affiliate faculty in the School of Africana and Multicultural Studies at Southern Illinois University Carbondale.

In der 46. Folge von Informatik für die moderne Hausfrau spreche ich mit Aurelia Brandenburg ausnahmsweise mal über Männer, genauer gesagt, über Männlichkeitsbilder im Kontext digitaler Spiele. Wir erfahren, welches Bild des 'typischen Gamers' vorherrscht (Überraschung: ein Mann!), warum Gaming häufig als eine männliche Tätigkeit verstanden wird und warum Computerspielemagazine eine hervorragende Quelle für Aurelias Forschung zu diesem Thema sind.  Aurelia erzählt uns, was sich hinter dem Begriff Game Studies verbirgt, nämlich die Disziplin, die sich mit solchen und anderen Fragen beschäftigt. Sie verrät, welche Themen und welche Herangehensweisen in den Game Studies möglich sind, und erklärt, welche Überschneidungen die Game Studies mit den Digital Humanities haben. Wir erhalten außerdem Einblicke in Aurelias Werdegang und erfahren, warum sie sich kontinuierlich am Rande der Informatik bewegt hat und noch immer bewegt - allerdings ohne Informatik studiert zu haben. Sie lässt uns daran teilhaben, wie sie sich als Jugendliche und Mitglied der frühen Blogger*innenszene selbst das Programmieren beigebracht hat und wie sie diese Kenntnisse später im Studium beim Aufbau einer Burgendatenbank nutzen konnte.  Wir sprechen ebenfalls über die sogenannten Bindestrich-Informatiken und stellen fest: Es ist gut und sinnvoll, dass es sie gibt! Übrigens, falls ihr (alte) Computerspielemagazine besitzt, die ihr nicht mehr braucht, dann könnt ihr sie für die Forschung spenden. Meldet euch dazu einfach bei Aurelia. Weitere Informationen, Kontaktmöglichkeiten und verschiedene Ressourcen zu Aurelia Brandenburg findet ihr hier: https://aureliabrandenburg.de/links/ Mehr über das Projekt CH Ludens, in dem Aurelia forscht, erfahrt ihr hier: https://chludens.ch/ Einen Blog zum Projekt könnt ihr hier lesen: https://chludens.hypotheses.org/ Das Datenset, das Aurelia zusammengestellt hat, könnt ihr hier abrufen: https://chludens.hypotheses.org/1228 In dieser Folge wird auf zwei weitere Folgen verwiesen: - Folge 13 - Frauen und Computer (Interview mit Nina Neuscheler) - Folge 39 - Digital Humanities (Interview mit Julia Jennifer Beine) Alle Informationen zum Podcast findet ihr auf der zugehörigen Webseite https://www.informatik-hausfrau.de.

Are you interested in urban evolution across time? Our summary today works with the article titled Cities through the ages: One thing or many? from 2019, by Michael E. Smith and José Lobo, published in the Frontiers in Digital Humanities journal. This is a great preparation to our next interview with Howard Bloom in episode 328 talking about urban evolution from the bacteria to space exploration. Since we are investigating the future of cities, I thought it would be interesting to see the nature of cities throughout the ages. This article investigates cities as energised crowing, also known as one thing, and many things, such as political sites and economic environments.Find the article through this link.Abstract: The variability among cities, from the ancient world to the present, can be organized usefully in two ways. First, a focus on the dominant urban activities and processes leads to the recognition of two basic urban types: economic cities and political cities. Most cities today are economic cities in which growth proceeds through agglomeration processes. By contrast, most cities in the ancient world (and some today) are political cities, in which power and administration play a major role in structuring cities and generating change. Second, an alternative focus on processes of social interaction within the urban built environment leads to the recognition that there is only one kind of settlement that includes all cities—economic and political; past and present. Cities in this sense are settings for “energized crowding.” Processes of interaction generate both economic and political growth, and they produce and influence the built forms and social characteristics of all cities. Our model helps scholars distinguish the unique from the universal traits of cities today and in the past.Connecting episodes you might be interested in:No.090 - Interview with Professor Matthew McCartney about the economic side of citiesNo.318 - Interview with Mark Lutter about different economics across the world in citiesYou can find the transcript through ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠th⁠i⁠s link⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.What was the most interesting part for you?

Episode 1 of Ways of Knowing -- Season 2, an audio series about the humanities. Made by The World According to Sound and The University of Washington. This episode features the work of professor of English and Data Science Anna Preus.

In unserer Abschlussfolge der 8. RaDiHum20-Staffel zur DHd-Konferenz 2025 sprechen wir wie immer mit den diesjährigen Gewinner*innen des DHd-Reisestipendiums über ihre Eindrücke von der DHd2025 in Bielefeld. Mit Marthe Küster, Luisa Ripoll-Alberola und Tomash Shtohryn kommen drei Early‑Career‑Researchers zu Wort, die nicht nur ihre Perspektive auf die Konferenz, sondern auch ihren Einstieg in Digital Humanities, ihre persönlichen Highlights und ihre fachlichen Interessensschwerpunkte mit uns teilen.

In this episode of the CAA Conversations, Amanda Douberley, Clarissa J. Ceglio, and Alison Paul discuss the William Benton Museum of Art at the University of Connecticut, which brings student perspectives into its galleries and fosters belonging through innovative curricular partnerships. Three recent projects undertaken by classes in UConn's School of Fine Arts produced student-centered interpretive materials for the Benton's exhibitions. Each interactive project connected the museum with the campus community in a different way and cultivated a sense of belonging for both students enrolled in partner courses and student visitors to the Benton. Clarissa J. Ceglio, PhD, is Associate Professor of Digital Humanities, Associate Director of Research, for Greenhouse Studios, and Associate Director of Collaborative Research for UConn's Humanities Institute. Her research focuses on the ways in which museums, past and present, engage diverse communities in issues relevant to individual and civic thriving. She looks, too, at the affective and rhetorical uses of material, visual, and digital artifacts in constructing national and social imaginaries. Through her teaching and research, Ceglio also collaborates with museums, libraries, and communities on interdisciplinary public-facing and grant-funded projects that engage diverse audiences in topics of contemporary concern. Amanda Douberley is Curator & Academic Liaison at the William Benton Museum of Art, University of Connecticut, Storrs. She is responsible for connecting Benton's collections and exhibitions with teaching in departments across the university. She has curated numerous exhibitions at the museum, often in collaboration with faculty and other campus partners. Douberley holds a Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin with a focus on 20th-century American sculpture and public art. Before coming to UConn in 2018, she taught in the Department of Art History, Theory, and Criticism at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Alison Paul is an Associate Professor of Art and Area Coordinator for the Illustration/Animation concentration in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of Connecticut. Paul creates illustrations and stop-motion animations using cut paper collage. Her work is fundamentally about storytelling to a variety of audiences. Paul's animations have been shown in film festivals internationally, and her children's books have received starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and Kirkus Reviews. She has curated exhibitions at the William Benton Museum of Art in Storrs and the Roots Reading Room in Providence, RI. Professor Paul has taught at UConn since 2011.

Send us a textHow can the digital humanities address and explore the Holocaust? In these days of Chat GPT, we may be rightly wary about the use of computers to analyze the past.  However, today's episode shows how an ethical approach to using computational methods can expand our understanding of the past often by showing us new questions that we hadn't considered before. In this episode, I talk with Todd Presner about his fascinating and impressive work with the “big data” of recorded Holocaust testimony. Todd Presner is Chair of UCLA's Department of European Languages and Transcultural Studies at UCLA. Presner, Todd.

Being Human UT Podcast EP - 026 - 3-17-25 - Digital Humanities with Dr Jeremy Browne

In der 39. Folge von Informatik für die moderne Hausfrau spreche ich mit Julia Jennifer Beine über das Thema Digital Humanities. Wie der Begriff nahelegt, wird es dabei etwas weniger informatisch als sonst, denn wir beschäftigen uns mit den Möglichkeiten, die die Informatik für die Geisteswissenschaften bietet. Wir erfahren, was sich hinter dem Begriff Digital Humanities verbirgt, welche Art von Forschungfragen sich damit bearbeiten lassen und welche Chancen digitale Methoden für einige geisteswissenschaftliche Disziplinen mit sich bringen, die man als besonders analog bezeichnen könnte (zum Beispiel die klassische Philologie). Julia erzählt uns, wie sie eher zufällig mit den Digital Humanities in Berührung gekommen ist, mit welchen Herausforderungen sie es zu tun hatte, als sie sich größtenteils autodidaktisch Programmierkenntnisse angeeignet hat, und wie sie nun ihr Wissen an Studierende weitergibt, um ihnen einen leichteren Einstieg zu ermöglichen. Sie berichtet außerdem, wie genau digitale Tools und Methoden ihr bei der Forschung im Rahmen ihrer Promotion weitergeholfen haben - einen kleinen Crash-Kurs in Sachen antikes Theater bekommen wir ebenfalls. Neben der Arbeit an ihrer Dissertation hat Julia außerdem an der Drama Corpora Platform (DraCor) gearbeitet, einem digitalen Textkorpus, also gewissermaßen einer kuratierten Sammlung von Dramen. Inzwischen ist sie eine der Herausgeberinnen von DraCor, entwickelt die Plattform weiter und erklärt uns in diesem Zusammenhang, welche Rolle Open Data, Open Access und standardisierte Datenformate für die Wissenschaft spielen.  Zur Seite der Drama Corpora Platform gelangt ihr hier: https://dracor.org/ DraCor findet ihr ebenfalls auf BlueSky unter: https://bsky.app/profile/dracor.org Mehr zum erwähnten Center for Advanced Internet Studies (CAIS) könnt ihr hier erfahren: https://www.linkedin.com/company/center-for-advanced-internet-studies/ Weitere Informationen über Julia Jennifer Beine sowie Kontaktmöglichkeiten findet ihr auf den folgenden Webseiten: https://klassischephilologie.univie.ac.at/ueber-uns/mitarbeiterinnen/gastforscherinnen/dr-julia-jennifer-beine/ https://rub.academia.edu/JuliaJenniferBeine Ihr könnt Julia auch auf Social Media folgen und zwar auf den folgenden Plattformen: https://bsky.app/profile/juliajbeine.bsky.social https://www.linkedin.com/in/julia-jennifer-b-6947a5132/ Julias Doktorarbeit könnt ihr über diese Literaturangabe finden: Julia Jennifer Beine: Das doppelte Spiel des „servus callidus“.

Last night was the biggest night in film - the Oscars! The independent film Anora, made for just $5 million, cleaned up winning five awards including best picture and best actress for Mikey Madison - a 25-year-old relative unknown - who was on our programme last month. To give us all the news and highlights, film journalist Karen Krizanovich is in the Woman's Hour studio with Krupa Padhy.The UK data watchdog has launched what it calls a major investigation into TikTok's use of children's personal information. The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) will inspect the way in which the social media platform uses the data of 13 to 17 year olds to recommend further content to them. Zoe Kleinman, the BBC's technology editor and Dr Kaitlyn Regehr, Associate Professor Director of Digital Humanities at University College London, discuss.Trauma can be a major barrier to seeking medical care. That's according to a new survey from Healthwatch England, which found that women experience trauma more than men and nearly a fifth of respondents who have experienced trauma say they often or fairly often avoid health services. They are calling on the NHS to adopt pocket sized trauma cards for patients to show during appointments, following a successful pilot in Essex. Louise Ansari, Chief Executive of Healthwatch England, the patients champion, and Laura (not her real name), a survivor of sexual trauma and a sessional counsellor for Centre for Action on Rape and Abuse, join Krupa.What could you do before the internet if you thought you might be a lesbian and needed advice? Did you know there were a number of telephone lines around the country that you could call for advice or just for a friendly listening ear? Writer Elizabeth Lovatt discovered the logbooks of calls made to one of these lines and imagines the calls and tells the history of these help lines in her new book, Thank You For Calling The Lesbian Line. Elizabeth and Lisa Power, sexual health and LGBT campaigner and long-time volunteer at one of these lines, join Krupa to discuss.Twiggy turned the modelling world upside down with her androgynous style, big round eyes, bold eyelashes, and pixie haircut, becoming a defining figure and fashion icon of the swinging 60s. Considered the world's first supermodel, she went on to have a successful career in acting and singing, earning two Golden Globes and a Tony nomination, designed fashion ranges, appeared as a judge on America's Next Top Model, and was awarded a damehood for services to the fashion, arts and charity. Now a new documentary, Twiggy, directed by Sadie Frost, is out in cinemas from Friday. Twiggy joins Krupa.Presenter: Krupa Padhy Producer: Kirsty Starkey

In dieser Folge spricht Jacqueline Klusik-Eckert mit Torsten Veit über historische Netzwerkforschung als Methode für die Kunstgeschichte. Dabei steht neben seiner eigenen Forschung auch die Frage im Raum, mit welchen digitalen Werkzeugen man sich hochkomplexen historischen Zusammenhängen nähern kann. Neben Programmen für die Anreicherung der Daten gehört dabei auch ein tieferes Verständnis für Datenvisualisierungen und Statistiken.Um komplexe Beziehungsgeflechte zu erforschen und zu verstehen, braucht es neben diesen digitalen Hilfsmitteln noch ein großes Verständnis von historischen Zusammenhängen und Sozialgeschichte. Torsten betont die Bedeutung der Netzwerkforschung, nicht nur als Methode zur Datenorganisation, sondern auch als einen Weg, um historische und kunsthistorische Zusammenhänge neu zu interpretieren. Dabei wird deutlich, dass Netzwerkanalysen weit über die reine Betrachtung sozialer Beziehungen hinausgehen, indem sie auch Objekte und Kunstwerke als zentrale Knotenpunkte innerhalb eines Netzwerkes behandeln können.Die Diskussion bietet auch eine kritische Auseinandersetzung mit den Limitationen und Herausforderungen der Netzwerkforschung, wie der Umgang mit lückenhaften historischen Daten und die Notwendigkeit, Netzwerkvisualisierungen sorgfältig zu interpretieren. Thorsten teilt seine Erfahrungen mit der praktischen Anwendung von Netzwerkanalyse-Tools wie Gephi und die Relevanz dieser Methoden für die kunsthistorische Forschung. Es zeigt sich in dem Gespräch deutlich, dass ein fundiertes Kontextwissen notwendig bleiben wird, um die Visualisierungen und Netze zu interpretieren.Torsten Veit M.A. ist Wissenschaftlicher Koordinator und Datenmanager des Herrenhauszentrum des Ostseeraums am Caspar-David-Friedrich-Institut, Universität Greifswald und Akademischer Mitarbeiter der Data Literacy an der FH Potsdam.Begleitmaterial zu den Folgen findest du auf der Homepage unter https://www.arthistoricum.net/themen/podcasts/arthistocast.Alle Folgen des Podcasts werden bei heidICON mit Metadaten und persistentem Identifier gespeichert.

We've arrived at the big one, the breakthrough book of 1985 – White Noise. In Episodes 21 and 22, DDSWTNP extend our White Noise “residency” and turn in-depth attention to DeLillo's most popular piece of fiction in another double episode.  Episode 21: White Noise (1) takes an expansive view of the novel's narrative and goes into depth on (among many other subjects) the iconic opening chapter's commentary on America and Americana, the meaning of Mylex suits, Jack's relationships with Heinrich and Orest Mercator, and what it means to be a rat, a snake, a fascist, and a scholar of Hitler in this book's universe. Episode 22: White Noise (2) interprets passages mainly from the book's second half, including scenes featuring the dark humor of Vernon Dickey and of SIMUVAC, the meaning of DeLillo's desired title “Panasonic,” Jack's shooting of Willie Mink (and what it owes to Nabokov), a riveting fire and a fascinating trash compactor cube, and the Dostoevskyan interrogation of belief by Sister Hermann Marie. Every minute features original ideas on the enduring meanings of White Noise in so many political, social, technological, and moral dimensions – what it teaches us about the roots and implications of our many epistemological crises, how it does all this in writing that somehow manages to be self-conscious, philosophical, hilarious, and warm all at once. Texts and artifacts discussed and mentioned in these episodes: Ernest Becker, The Denial of Death (Free Press, 1973).  Adam Begley, “Don DeLillo: The Art of Fiction CXXXV,” The Paris Review 128 (1993): 274-306.            (DeLillo: “And White Noise develops a trite adultery plot that enmeshes the hero, justifying his fears about the death energies contained in plots. When I think of highly plotted novels I think of detective fiction or mystery fiction, the kind of work that always produces a few dead bodies. But these bodies are basically plot points, not worked-out characters. The book's plot either moves inexorably toward a dead body or flows directly from it, and the more artificial the situation the better.

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop speaks with pianist and AI innovator Ayse Deniz, who is behind "Classical Regenerated," a tribute project that uses artificial intelligence to bring classical composers back to life. Ayse shares how she trains AI models on historical documents, letters, and research to create interactive experiences where audiences can "speak" with figures like Chopin. The conversation explores the implications of AI in music, education, and human perception, touching on active listening, the evolution of artistic taste, and the philosophical questions surrounding artificial intelligence. You can connect with Ayse's through Instagram or learn more about her work visiting her website at adpianist.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast00:17 Exploring the Classical Regenerated Project00:39 AI in Live Concerts and Historical Accuracy02:25 Active Listening and the Impact of Music04:33 Personal Experiences with Classical Music09:46 The Role of AI in Education and Learning16:30 Cultural Differences in Music Education21:33 The Future of AI and Human Interaction30:13 Political Correctness and Its Impact on Society35:23 The Struggles of Music Students36:32 Wisdom Traditions and Tough Love37:28 Cultural Differences in Education39:57 The Role of AI in Music Education42:23 Challenges and Opportunities with AI47:21 The Future of Governance and AI50:11 The Intersection of Technology and Humanity56:05 Creating AI-Enhanced Music Projects01:06:23 Final Thoughts and Future PlansKey InsightsAI is transforming how we engage with classical music – Ayse Deniz's Classical Regenerated project brings historical composers like Chopin back to life using AI models trained on their letters, academic research, and historical documents. By allowing audiences to interact with AI-generated versions of these composers, she not only preserves their legacy but also creates a bridge between the past and the future of music.Active listening is a lost skill that AI can help revive – Modern music consumption often treats music as background noise rather than an art form requiring deep attention. Ayse uses AI-generated compositions alongside original works to challenge audiences to distinguish between them, fostering a more engaged and analytical approach to listening.The nature of artistic interpretation is evolving with AI – Traditionally, human performers interpret classical compositions with emotional nuance, timing, and dynamics. AI-generated performances are now reaching a level where they can mimic these subtleties, raising questions about whether machines can eventually match or even surpass human expressiveness in music.AI's impact on education will depend on how it is designed – Ayse emphasizes that AI should not replace teachers but rather serve as a tool to encourage students to practice more and develop discipline. By creating an AI music tutor for children, she aims to support learning in a way that complements human instruction rather than undermining it.Technology is reshaping the psychology of expertise – With AI capable of outperforming humans in various fields, there is an emerging question of how people will psychologically adapt to always being second-best to machines. The discussion touches on whether AI-generated knowledge and creativity will demotivate human effort or inspire new forms of artistic and intellectual pursuits.The philosophical implications of AI challenge our sense of reality – As AI-generated personas and compositions become more convincing, distinguishing between what is “real” and what is synthetic is becoming increasingly difficult. The episode explores the idea that we may already be living in a kind of simulation, where our perception of reality is constructed and mediated by evolving technologies.AI is accelerating personal empowerment but also risks centralization – Just as personal computing once promised decentralization but led to the rise of tech giants, AI has the potential to give individuals new creative powers while also concentrating influence in the hands of those who control the technology. Ayse's work exemplifies how AI can be used for artistic and educational empowerment, but it also raises questions about the need for ethical development and accessibility in AI tools.

In dieser Folge spricht Jacqueline Klusik-Eckert mit Meike Hopp über die aktuellen Entwicklungen und Herausforderungen der Provenienzforschung. Im Fokus stehen dabei digitale Hilfsmittel wie Datenbanken, die es ermöglichen, komplexe Objekt- und Personenbiographien besser sichtbar zu machen und Wissenssilos aufzubrechen.Während Datenbanken wie das Art Loss Register und die Lost Art Datenbank seit Jahren zur Verfügung stehen, haben sich die Methoden und Werkzeuge zur Erforschung der Herkunft von Kunstwerken und Kulturgütern rasant weiterentwickelt. Die zunehmende Öffnung von Sammlungsinstitutionen hilft dabei. Dennoch gibt es erhebliche Herausforderungen bei der Standardisierung, dem Zugang zu Daten und der internationalen Zusammenarbeit. Und dabei ist das Öffnen der Silos nur ein Aspekt des ganzen. Provenienzforschung ist nämlich viel mehr als nur genug Quellen zusammenzutragen. Datenauswertung im großen Stil verlangt Kompetenzen, die noch lange nicht zum Ausbildungskanon der Kunstgeschichte gehören.Ein besonderer Fokus liegt daneben auf der Notwendigkeit, Forschungsdaten und Quellen so aufzubereiten und zu präsentieren, dass sie nicht nur für Forschende, sondern auch für die breite Öffentlichkeit zugänglich sind. Dabei betont Meike Hopp die Bedeutung der Provenienzforschung, die über die reine Restitution von Kunstwerken hinausgeht. Es geht vermehrt um Teilhabe und Ermächtigung. Betroffenen Familien und Gemeinschaften erhalten erst durch optimal aufbereitete Daten – Stichwort Mehrsprachigkeit – und Interfaces die Möglichkeit, ihre eigene Geschichte aufzuarbeiten.Trotz signifikanter Fortschritte in der Provenienzforschung bangt der Forschungsbereich noch immer um eine nachhaltige Etablierung in der kunsthistorischen Ausbildungslandschaft.Prof. Dr. Meike Hopp, Juniorprofessorin für Digitale Provenienzforschung an der TU Berlin sowie Vorsitzendes des Arbeitskreis Provenienzforschung.Begleitmaterial zu den Folgen findest du auf der Homepage unter https://www.arthistoricum.net/themen/podcasts/arthistocast.Alle Folgen des Podcasts werden bei heidICON mit Metadaten und persistentem Identifier gespeichert.

Link zum Memorandum und zum Zeichnen: https://kunstgeschichte.org/10-thesen-zu-forschungsdaten-in-der-kunstgeschichte/In dieser Folge spricht Jacqueline Klusik-Eckert mit Maria Effinger, Ulrich Pfisterer, Georg Schelbert und Kerstin Thomas, die als Initiator*innen des Memorandums einen Einblick in die aktuellen Herausforderungen und Chancen der kunsthistorischen Forschungsdaten geben. Das Gespräch beginnt mit der Genese des Memorandums, beleuchtet die Motivationen und den dringenden Bedarf, der zu diesem wichtigen Schritt für das Fach Kunstgeschichte geführt hat. Es wird deutlich, dass die Definition, die Art und der Umgang mit Forschungsdaten in der Kunstgeschichte so vielschichtig sind wie die Disziplin selbst.Gemeinsam schauen sie mit unterschiedlichen Perspektiven auf die Notwendigkeit, Forschungsdaten nicht nur zu sammeln, sondern sie so aufzubereiten, dass sie zugänglich und nutzbar gemacht werden können. Dabei geht es auch um die institutionelle Verantwortung, Strukturen zu schaffen, die sowohl die Archivierung als auch die Beratung und Vernetzung unterstützen. Ein wichtiger Diskussionspunkt ist die Rolle der Künstlichen Intelligenz in der Forschung und wie das Memorandum darauf abzielt, KI-Strategien und -Richtlinien zu entwickeln, die es der kunsthistorischen Forschung ermöglichen, auf Augenhöhe mit aktuellen technologischen Entwicklungen zu bleiben.Abschließend reflektieren die Gäste über die nächsten Schritte, die die Community unternehmen sollte, um die im Memorandum skizzierten Ziele zu erreichen, und welche wissenschaftspolitischen Maßnahmen erforderlich sind.​​Dr. Maria Effinger von der Universitätsbibliothek Heidelberg ist Leiterin der Abteilung "Publikationsdienste" und von "arthistoricum.net - Fachinformationsdienst Kunst, Fotografie, Design sowie Co-Spokesperson von NFDI4Culture.Prof. Dr. Ulrich Pfisterer ist Professor für Kunstgeschichte an der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München und Direktor des Zentralinstituts für Kunstgeschichte, München.Dr. Georg Schelbert, Leiter der Photothek und Digital Humanities am Zentralinstitut für Kunstgeschichte, München, sowie Sprecher des Arbeitskreis Digitale Kunstgeschichte.Prof. Dr. Kerstin Thomas ist Professorin für Kunstgeschichte an der Universität Stuttgart und erste Vorsitzende des Deutschen Verbands für Kunstgeschichte.Der Podcast kann man auf vielen Wegen hören.

Devereaux is an ancient and military historian who currently teaches as a Teaching Assistant Professor at North Carolina State University. He has his PhD in ancient history from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and his MA in classical civilizations from Florida State University.Bret is a historian of the broader ancient Mediterranean in general and of ancient Rome in particular. His primary research interests sit at the intersections of the Roman economy and the Roman military, examining the ways that the lives of ordinary people in the ancient world were shaped by the structures of power, violence and wealth under which they lived and the ways in which they in turn shaped the military capacity of the states in which they lived (which is simply a fancy way of saying he is interested in how the big picture of wars, economic shifts and politics impacted the ‘little' folks and vice versa). More broadly he is interested in many of the nuts-and-bolts of everyday life in the ancient world, things like the production of textiles, the economics of small farming households, and the burden of military service.He is also a lifetime fan of fantasy, science fiction and speculative fiction more generally. Bret enjoys good music, bad jokes and writing about himself in the third person. He is also required, by law and ancient custom, to inform absolutely everyone that he has, in fact, beaten Dark Souls (and now also Elden Ring).

This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ . Digital Humanities sounds at first blush like a contradiction of terms: the intersection of our digital, technology-centric culture, and the humanities, like arts, literature, and philosophy. Aren't those like oil and water? But my guest illustrates just how important this discipline is by illuminating both of those fields from viewpoints I found fascinating and very different from what we normally encounter. Professor Caroline Bassett is the first Director of Cambridge Digital Humanities, an interdisciplinary research center in Cambridge University. She is a Fellow of Corpus Christi College and researches digital technologies and cultural change with a focus on AI. She co-founded the Sussex Humanities Lab and at Cambridge she inaugurated the Masters of Philosophy in Digital Humanities and last month launched the new doctoral programme in Digital Humanities. In the conclusion, we talk about how technology shapes our psychology, how it enables mass movements, science fiction, the role of big Silicon Valley companies, and much more. All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines. Transcript and URLs referenced at HumanCusp Blog.

In part 1 we talk about what digital humanities is, how it intersects with AI, what science and the humanities have to learn from each other, Joseph Weizenbaum and the reactions to his ELIZA chatbot, Luddites, and how passively or otherwise we accept new technology. Caroline really made me see in particular how what she calls "technocratic rationality," a way of thinking borne out of a technological culture accelerated by AI, reduces the novelty which we can experience in the world in a way we should certainly preserve. All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines. Transcript and URLs referenced at HumanCusp Blog.
