Digital Humanities and Visual Resources: The Material and Digital Lives of Eastern European and Russian Artifacts

This four-day workshop will explore digital humanities theories and tools for Slavic Studies scholars working with visual resources. Hands-on instructional sessions will cover structured metadata design, platforms and tools for digital exhibits (OmekaS, Wax, Tropy, IIIF), and computer vision, and will be led by Quinn Dombrowski (Stanford University) and Andy Janco (Haverford College). Keynote lectures will be by Glen Worthy (Stanford) “Speaking Figuratively: What Does Text Have To Do With Image?,” and Toma Tasovac (DARIAH-EU) on “Thinking Infrastructurally: What’s In It for Humanities Scholars?.”

This workshop is co-organized by digital humanists at Princeton, the Herder Institute for Historical Research on East Central Europe, Stanford University and Haverford College.

Keynote lectures are free and open to the public. Workshop participation requires registration. Please contact Natalia Ermolaev (nataliae@princeton.edu) with questions or to register.
