*Special feature of this workshop: Twin Talks*
This workshop is special in that all submitted talks at this workshop
are submitted and presented by, a humanities researcher and a digital
expert. They report on the research carried out together, both from
their individual perspective (either humanities research or technical),
as well as on their collaboration experience.
*Why twin talks instead of solo talks?*
The main objective of the workshop is to get a better understanding of
the dynamics on the Digital Humanities work floor where humanities
scholars and digital experts meet and work in tandem to solve humanities
research questions. The best way to do this seems to be to give both
parties the opportunity to present their achievements and to share their
collaboration experiences with the audience. The insights gained should
help those involved in the education of humanities scholars,
professionals and technical experts alike to develop better training
programmes.
*Who should submit?*
Pairs of a humanities and a digital expert who have done joint research
and who want to report on their work and on their collaboration experience.
*Why should you submit and/or attend?*
Humanities research can only benefit maximally from new developments in
technology if content and digital experts team up, very similar to the
hard sciences where research is done in teams working on a specific
problem, where everybody brings in his/her specific content and
technical expertise and skills. Co-design, co-development and
co-creation are the rule rather than the exception, but very little is
known about how this collaboration works in practice and how better
training and education of both humanities scholars and digital experts
could facilitate the way they collaborate. This is what this workshop
wants to address, based on real life collaboration examples. We
especially invite researchers, professionals, educators, and Research
Infrastructure operators with a special interest in creating the
conditions where humanities scholars and technical experts can
fruitfully collaborate in answering humanities research questions.
*Format of the workshop*
The full day workshop will start with an invited talk, followed by six
25-minute /twin talks/, i.e. talks presented by pairs consisting of a
humanities scholar and a digital expert, followed by 5 minutes for
questions and discussion. The talks should contain the following three
components: presentation of the humanities problem and its solution,
presentation of the technical aspects of the research done, and a report
on the collaboration experience itself, including obstacles encountered
and recommendations how better training and education could help to make
collaboration more efficient and effective. After the talks there will
be a round table discussion with all participants to formulate the
lessons learned from the presentations.
*Research topics*
All humanities research topics in a very broad sense are welcome, where
we explicitly include social sciences and well as cultural heritage
studies. Research may be completed or ongoing, as long as the
presentation explicitly addresses the way the humanities researcher and
the digital expert have collaborated or still collaborate.
*What we expect from the submissions*
-They are authored and presented by one more humanities scholars and one
or more digital experts
-They start from a humanities research question (i.e. not a technical
question)
-They describe the research carried out jointly and its results
-They describe the technical aspects of the methods used and the results
obtained
-They analyse the way the scholar and the technician collaborated,
addressing issues such as (but not limited to):
oWhat was easy and what was difficult – and why?
oHow did the researcher and technician change each other’s way of
looking at things?
oDid they, for instance, make each other aware of blind spots they had?
oDid the combination of thinking from a DH research question and
thinking from a technical solution lead to new insights?
oHow could better training or education of scholars and digital
experts make collaboration easier, more effective and more efficient?
