The first volume to focus on digitising and curating data online as
research methods for Digital Humanities As all scholars
increasingly use digital tools to support their research, and every
internet user becomes used to data being available, elucidating,
and engaging, the creative aspects of Digital Humanities work are
coming under increasing scrutiny. This volume explores the practice
of making new tools, new images, new collections, and new artworks
in an academic environment, detailing who needs to be involved and
what their roles might be, and how they come together to produce
knowledge as a collective. The chapters presented here demonstrate
that creation is never neutral with political and theoretical
concerns intentionally or unavoidably always being written into the
fabric of what is being made, even if that's the seeming neatness
of computer code. In presenting their own creative research, the
writers in this volume offer examples of practice that will be of
use to anyone interested in learning more about contemporary
Digital Humanities scholarship and its implications. Key features:
First volume to explore digitisation practices as research methods
for Humanities scholars Provides a practical and critical approach
to issues of digitisation Discusses actual digitisation projects on
a 'how-to' basis Addresses issues such as digital photography,
multi-spectral imaging, rekeying, metadata, online simulation,
artistic practice online
