Data in the Humantities + Art = an exciting event!

November 7, 2013

The creators of “Victorian Eyes” along with the Humanities Research Bridge are happy to present Data in the Humanities + Art (DH+A), an exciting event taking place on Friday, November 8 from 1:00-5:00pm in the DeLuca Forum, Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery.

The afternoon seminar and reception will pose the question: How can art contribute to the analysis of humanities data? This will make for a lively discussion from a diverse audience of science and humanities scholars and the public at large. Attendees will get the opportunity to see the traveling art exhibition, Victorian Eyes; learn about the intersection of computation, humanities research and art; and share ideas for collaborative projects with other talented minds from across the UW and Madison.

DH+A is free and open to the public. View the full schedule of events here and RSVP to Carrie Roy at croy@wisc.edu.
