This year's theme is MeTe digital: Mediterranean networks between texts and contexts. Best regards Daria Spampinato ******************************************************************************* CALL FOR PAPERS The AIUCD 2024 conference is dedicated to the Mediterranean, understood as an inclusive space for cultural, literary, artistic, philosophical and scientific exchange. The primary objective is to privilege the role of the digital as both medium and methodology, through which it is possible to link texts and peoples, to foster dialogue between diverse cultures, and to generate virtual spaces for the sharing of texts and artefacts with shared cultural roots. Viewed in this way, the role of the digital can be conceived both with reference to the idea of textuality in its broadest sense and to the organisation of knowledge. Space will be given to theoretical and methodological reflections in digital philology and computational analysis, the organisation and preservation of digitised and born-digital collections, the application of Artificial Intelligence methods, and challenges in digital heritage conservation. The conference is focused, but not restricted, to the following key themes: 1) Digitised cultures of the Mediterranean 2) Digital archives and editions 3) Computational analysis of texts 4) Ontologies and the Semantic Web 5) Preservation of memory and digital cultural heritage Participation is possible in the form of an oral presentation (paper) or a poster. Contributors must indicate whether their proposal is meant for an oral or a poster presentation. All proposals must be between three (3) and five (5) pages in length, including bibliography. The official languages of the conference are Italian and English. Proposals must conform to the template provided and to the instructions given on the ‘information for authors<https://aiucd2024.unict.it/invio-contributi/>’ page.

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 Please submit your proposal by 20 January, 2024 following the guidelines below. The conference will also lay the groundwork for a special edition of Digital Humanities Quarterly<http://www.digitalhumanities.org/dhq/>. If you are unable to attend the conference, but want to contribute to the DHQ special edition, please send your abstract by 30 July, 2024. See guidelines below for further details.
