It is my pleasure to present at the #DHC2024 with Zheyuan Zhang today. ICH and its digitisation is a long process and we will continue working on this to provide more insight to museums and ICH related communities. So far ICH gamification looks promising.

It has been a complete joy to be able to attend, present and connect with old and new fellow DH colleagues at the #DHC2024 DHI.

Back from #DHC2024 where I talked about the importance of understanding the full pipeline of the methods used, and why off-the-shelf tools need triangulation and control to assure valid #digitalhumanities research. As a case study, I dissected textual emotion detection. 2/1

A big welcome to all our new students who will be starting their MA degrees at DHI this week!
