The 4th Digital Humanities Austria Conference in cooperation with DARIAH, CLARIN and Digital Humanities Austria will take place at the University of Innsbruck (A) from December 4th to December 6th, 2017.
The conference this year is according to the motto "Data First!?". The (half)-automatized data production and its quality, analysis, interpretation and visualization is gaining importance throughout the humanities.
The purpose of this conference is to develop an exchange of experiences between humanities scholars, employees of libraries, archives, as well as computer sciences and technologies. Successful research activities in the field of digital humanities are (almost) always determined by interdisciplinarity, skills of different research fields will be required. Due to that, the involvement of new developments in related research areas is important to us. Young scientists are particularly encouraged to present their research results in front of a broad audience - for example in the form of a poster or a demonstration.
The environment is one of our particular concerns. Due to that this event will be held as a Going Green Tyrol Event. Please support us!
This event is barrier-free. Wheelchair user and people with special needs are able to contact Tamara.Terbul@uibk.ac.at in case of further questions.
