Dear Colleagues,

I hope you don't mind if I draw your attention to the following event
that Manuel Huth and I are organising for the CSMBR in February 2024:


   STUDIOLO DIGITAL HUMANITIES LAB

Winter School Series 'Humanities for the Future'
12-15 February 2024

Online Event 

Organised by

Fabrizio Bigotti
Manuel Huth 


Registration is now open for Studio Digital Humanities Lab, the new
Winter School format designed to meet the needs of those who, inside and
outside academia, are facing the digital revolution.

Its interdisciplinary format allows participants to get a feel for the
potential of new media, while acquiring basic coding skills, knowledge
of 3D modelling, Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and key concepts in
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLM), as well as
tools for communicating with experts in the field.
The possibilities opened up by digital humanities are vast, and worth
considering for anyone writing a new project, seeking funding or simply
new means of implementing existing ideas.

Emphasising the acquisition of practical skills, the Winter School
requires no prior knowledge of coding or other skills. It caters to
individuals from different backgrounds and career stages. Participants
will be provided training by means of frontal lectures, Q&As, workshops
and a series of exercises in breakout sessions.

   * Basic coding skills in Python;
   * An overview of the opportunities offered by data analysis;
   * Database building;
   * The potential of 3D Modelling in art and archaeology;
   * An introduction to Machine Learning and Neural Networks;
   * Insights into using AI to refine academic project writing;
   * Knowledge of contemporary OCR systems, and training in how to use
     segmentation and text recognition;
   * Analysis of case studies of some of the state-of-the-art projects in
     the field;
   * Workshops focused on participants’ specific projects and needs.

By the end of the Winter School, participants will;

   * Understand how to embed different digital media into humanistic
     research;
   * Know the key terms of Digital Humanities and coding terminology;
   * Familiarise themselves with the uses and applications of Artificial
     Intelligence;
   * Be able to employ basic coding for data analysis and visualisation;
   * Understand the applications of segmentation programmes;
   * Get personalised feedback on their project ideas.
