Digitisation renders collections more accessible, while computer vision algorithms enable researchers to trace patterns across large datasets of images and chart new avenues of research. At the same time, 3D modelling techniques capture and digitally preserve cultural heritage structures and artefacts threatened by war, climate change or over-tourism, while virtual reality transports audiences to palaces, monuments, or places of worship,widening access to such sites. This conference brings together researchers, students, and professionals from art history, museology, digital humanities, geography, history, archeology, classics and computer science, who are interested in exploring digital approaches to the study of visual and material culture. The conference explores how researchers are integrating digital tools into their research, introduces new audiences to cutting edge technologies and methodologies, and critically assesses the opportunities and challenges that such approaches present. Day 1: Digital Approaches to Art History (Digital Visual Studies). The first day is devoted to investigating new digital and computational approaches to the study of visual culture. Topics include: digital imaging, computer vision, network analysis, visual Distant Reading, digital research infrastructures, data standards, institutional projects, digitisation and digital publishing projects. Day 2: Digital Approaches to Architectural and Cultural Heritage (Sites and Objects) The second day focuses on digital approaches to capturing, displaying and studying three dimensional cultural sites and objects. This includes data capture, 3D and 4D modelling, and virtual anastylosis. It likewise treats the display, exploration and research of cultural heritage sites using new technologies, including but not limited to virtual and augmented reality. We invite proposals for 20 minute presentations which engage with any of the above topics or which reflect critically on the integration of digital tools into the study of art history and cultural heritage. Abstracts of no more than 500 words and a 100 biography can be submitted at the following URL: https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/DAH2020/Track/1/Submission/Create. The organisers will seek to publish selected papers in an edited volume. Organised by Lia Costiner (Merton College, Oxford) & Leonardo Impett (Biblioteca Hertziana, Rome).

This conference/workshop will bring together selected leading and upcoming experts in the study of Digital Diplomatics and related fields, to facilitate a productive exchange on the state and the future of the field. The conference will include expert panels, lightning talks, and a poster session, which is currently open for submissions. We are soliciting posters on any subject related to the study of charters and computing, including: * Machine Learning for Digital Diplomatics * Linguistic Corpora for Digital Diplomatics * Digitally Mediated Archives for Diplomatics * The Future of Diplomatics The poster session will be attended by leading experts in the field. Currently confirmed guests include: Antonella Ambrosio (Naples), Sébastien Barret (CNRS), Michael Gervers (Toronto), Tobias Hodel (Bern), Timo Korkiakangas (Helsinki), Els De Parmentier (Ghent), Peter Stokes (Paris), and Zarko Vujesovic (Vienna/Belgrade). Submission Guidelines: Please send a 100-word abstract of the poster project and a short C.V. to Sean Winslow sean.winslow@uni-graz.at. Though there is a hard deadline of 17 March 12:00 GMT, proposals received before then will be evaluated on a rolling basis, and a decision will be made within a week of receipt, and by 19 March at the latest. Looking forward to your submissions!
