Another hot DH event in Leipzig this week: Fabio Ciotti (Rome), "Digital Humanities and Generative AI: yet another methodological turn?" www.philol.uni-leipzig.de/veranstaltun...

If you are based in Leipzig, feel free to join us for our "Digital Methods" workshop next week. The event is part of the MECANO EU project ("mechanics of canon formation"): mecano-dn.eu/events/works...

Something incredible spotted at #dh2024 ! @comphumresearch.bsky.social

Willst du als Statistikbeauftragte(r) an der Phil. Fak. der Uni Leipzig arbeiten? Zwar nur 50%, dafür aber unbefristet. Bewerbungsfrist ist der 5. August. www.uni-leipzig.de/stellenaussc...

The #CHR2024 submission deadline drama is real (at least for me 😅) 2024.computational-humanities-research.org/cfp/

On my way to Leuven, excited to meet many interesting people at #DHBenelux2024

You gotta love game studies! Where else do you find papers with the following combination of keywords: "analog games", "glue" and "necropolitics" ☺️ gamestudies.org/2301/article...

Super excited about the upcoming conference in Marburg on digital methods and the future of film studies. Full program can be found here: www.uni-marburg.de/en/fb09/inst...

Excited to start a new project on the computational analysis of illustrations in historical childrens books "Buchkindheiten digital" www.forschung.sachsen.de/geistes-und-...

Work on a Computational Humanities PhD project in Leipzig as part of the MECANO doctoral network. Topic: "Contextual scientometrics – Uncovering and understanding referencing patterns to the ancient canon in modern scholarly discourses". All details here: euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/192590

Tomorrow, Nicolas Ruth will give an in-depth talk about our scalabe visualization approach to detect patterns in large collections of videos (see CHR 2024 paper "from clusters to graphs": ceur-ws.org/Vol-3558/pap...). For the zoom link contact Eva Ommert (uni-leipzig.de/en/profile/m...)

Ich weiß nicht, ob die DHd2024 hier schon offiziell einen Account hat, aber vllt. weiß es ja jemand aus der Bubble (z.B. @philaut.bsky.social): was ist denn nun die finale Deadline für die camera ready papers? Auf der Website steht 6.12, im ConfTool steht 17.12?

I hope you all have a great time at #CHR2023, the program is 🔥Unfortunately I couldn’t make it to Paris myself, but an impressive delegation from our CH group will be present, in case you feel a strong urge to talk to somebody from Leipzig :-) See you all soon!

#CHR2023 proceedings are out 2 weeks before the actual conference, what a nice surprise! 27 long papers and 22 short papers on all kinds of computational humanities research, check it out here: ceur-ws.org/Vol-3558/

Am 04.12.23 findet nachmittags im Vortragssaal der Bibliotheca Albertina der alljährliche Digital Humanities Day Leipzig (#DHDL) statt. Es gibt jede Menge spannende Poster und Projekte (Programm: fdhl.info/dhdl2023/). Alle Interessierten sind herzlich eingeladen!

Finally, our new paper from the field of Computational and Literary BioDiv Studies (CoLiBiS) on "The relation between biodiversity in literature and social and spatial situation of authors" is available as OA via Nature and People 😅https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pan3.10551

So proud of my Computational Humanities Group @UniLeipzig + special guest Sarah Lang – 5 submissions have been accepted for CHR conf. 2023 in Paris 🥳 Props to everybody in the group and many thx to the PC & reviewers for doing such a great job! 2023.computational-humanities-research.org/programme/

We released an updated programme of the upcoming Computational Humanities Research conference in Paris 2023.computational-humanities-research.org/programme/ Together with a pre-conference workshop on AI and literary studies, this promises to be an exciting December week! workshop-llms4cls.github.io

So here I am - it‘s 2023 and I am at my first Tangerine Dream (or what is left of them) concert. In Leipzig‘s Gewandhaus. Feeling weird and excited at the same time. Hello BlueSky BTW 😅
