        Subject: Linked Pasts Symposium (Remote, Dec. 4-15)

The Linked Pasts Symposium (https://linkedpasts.org) brings together
scholars, heritage professionals and other practitioners with an interest
in Linked Open Data as applied to the study of the ancient and historical
worlds.

The Ninth Linked Pasts symposium (LP9) will be a fully virtual and
asynchronous affair, better to engage with international participants and
different time zones, and reduce the need for financially and
environmentally expensive travel. Activities proposed include working
groups and workshops with a specific goal and agenda.

The Programme of Activities
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1w7gZNz1gLHeEe7OBJ7vD7qMZCajI88PRnd0BVzhRDCY/edit#heading=h.r3rosc5ezl5r>

participants and information on how to sign up, take part, and find the
outcomes of the activity. An outline of these activities follows, and full
details are in the programme Google Doc.

DIGITAL HUMANITIES & ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
One-Day Conference at the University of Reading
17 June, 2024

Keynote Speaker:
Dr Barbara McGillivray
(King’s College London)


We invite scholars, researchers, and practitioners to participate in a focused
exploration of the intersections between Digital Humanities (DH) and Artificial
Intelligence (AI) at a one-day conference at the University of Reading.

The conference will feature three distinct strands, each proving a unique
perspective on the evolving landscape of DH-AI:



Strand 1: Cultural Heritage

•       Explore the role of artificial intelligence in preserving, interpreting,
and making accessible cultural heritage.
•       Discuss innovative projects and technologies that digitise, catalog, and
safeguard cultural artifacts and historical sites.
•       Examine the impact of AI on the study and dissemination of cultural
heritage.


Strand 2: Ethics

•       Delve into the ethical considerations and challenges posed by the use of
AI in Digital Humanities.
•       Discuss issues of bias, representation, and inclusivity in AI-driven
research and projects
•       Explore strategies and best practices for ensuring ethical AI
applications in the digital humanities


Strand 3: Synthetic Media

•       Investigate the creative potential of AI-generated content, such as art,
music, literature and virtual environments.
•       Showcase projects that leverage synthetic media for storytelling,
cultural expression, and education.
•       Examine the ethical and cultural implications of AI-generated content in
the Digital Humanities.


We welcome submissions in the following formats:

1)      Individual research papers
2)      Panel Proposals
