Colleen Morgan (University of York)
Assembling People and Worlds in Digital Archaeology

Online seminar. Booking:
<https://www.sas.ac.uk/events/assembling-people-and-worlds-digital-archaeology>

This lecture will address work spanning the past 16 years in
experimental making and being the digital dead. Through multiple case
studies including Çatalhöyük in Second Life, OTHER EYES, and
Zooarchaeological Symphonies we will explore fundamental contributions
digital archaeology can make towards questions such as how does
archaeology understand what being a person is? and how does archaeology
make people and places? Following these questions, I will offer new
perspectives regarding the peopling of the past and embodiment in
archaeology, including the ethical and political considerations that
accompany this work.

The Spring 2024 Material Digital Humanities seminar is organised by
Gabriel Bodard, Shawn Graham and Rada Varga and co-hosted by the Digital
Humanities Research Hub, University of London, UK; Department of
History, Carleton University, Canada; Star-UBB Institute of Advanced
Studies, University Babeș-Bolyai, Cluj Napoca, Romania.

This seminar series will present a range of discussions around
materiality and the research possibilities offered by digital methods
and approaches. More than just the value of digitization and
computational research to the study of material culture, we are
especially interested in theoretical and digital approaches to the
question of materiality itself. We do not restrict ourselves to any
period of history or academic discipline, but want to encourage
interdisciplinarity and collaborative work, and the valuable exchange of
ideas enabled by cross-pollination of languages, areas of history,
geography and cultures.

All welcome

This event is free to attend, but booking is required. It will be held
online with details about how to join the virtual event being circulated
via email to registered attendees 24 hours in advance.
