'Networked humanities: art history on the web', Acquafredda di Maratea, Italy
Since the earliest times, new technologies have contributed to scientific advances and transformed research methods. Today, the World Wide Web offers revolutionary models of scientific cooperation. This development has repeatedly been associated with the development and introduction of a collaborative Web, commonly referred to as 'Web 2.0' and the semantically-enriched Web 3.0.
The aim of this conference is to bring together art historians and other researchers (including digital humanists) in order to investigate the intersection between the web and collaborative research processes, via an examination of electronic media-based cooperative models in the history of art and beyond.
The conference will be an occasion to exchange ideas and present relevant projects in the field. This will include contributions spanning from art history (and digital art) to philosophy and cultural studies, psychology, sociology, computer graphics and beyond.For further information, please visit:
