About the Twin Talks workshop

This workshop is the third in a series where the main objective is to get a better understanding of the dynamics on the Digital Humanities work floor where humanities scholars and digital experts meet and work in tandem to solve humanities research questions. The best way to do this seems to be to give both parties the opportunity to present their achievements and to share their collaboration experiences with the audience. The insights gained should help those involved in the education of humanities scholars, professionals and technical experts alike to develop better training programmes.

As the problem of cross-discipline collaboration is not new we also invite those who have relevant experience or interesting ideas about how to address this in university or other curricula to share their ideas with the audience.

In earlier workshops talks were submitted and presented by a humanities researcher and a digital expert (the Twin Talks). They were asked to report on on-going or recently completed research carried out together, both from their individual perspective (either humanities research or technical), as well as on their collaboration experience. Recently we added the talks by people with experience or interesting ideas about how cross-discipline collaboration is or can be addressed in curricula or other training activities (the Teach Talks).

The workshops were typically scheduled as full-day workshops, starting with an invited talk, followed by a number of 20-30 minutes presentations, and concluded with a round table discussion with all participants.


Format of the workshop

Due to the coronavirus the DH2020 conference will go virtual, and so will the Twin Talks 3 workshop. This has consequences for the format.

The duration of the virtual workshop will be 2 hours, and it will have an interactive, panel-like format, with short pitches (duration dependent on number of accepted talks). The Twin Talk pitches should briefly describe (i) the research problem addressed, (ii) its solution, including the technical aspects, (iii) a report on the collaboration experience itself, including obstacles encountered and (iv) recommendations how better training and education could help to make collaboration more efficient and effective.

The Teach Talks should briefly describe (i) the collaboration settings on which they are based, (ii) the approach adopted, and (iii) recommendations.

After the talks there will be a discussion with all participants to formulate the lessons learned from the presentations, and to identify further steps that could be taken.


Research and teaching topics

All humanities research topics in a very broad sense are welcome, where we explicitly include social sciences and cultural heritage studies. Research or teaching activities may be completed or ongoing, as long as the presentation explicitly addresses the way the humanities researcher and the digital expert have collaborated or still collaborate.


Why should you submit and/or attend?

Humanities research can only benefit maximally from new developments in technology if content and digital experts team up, very similar to the hard sciences where research is done in teams working on a specific problem, where everybody brings in his/her specific content and technical expertise and skills.

Co-design, co-development and co-creation are the rule rather than the exception, but very little is known about how this collaboration works in practice and how better training and education of both humanities scholars and digital experts could facilitate the way they collaborate. This is what this workshop wants to address, based on real life collaboration examples. We especially invite researchers, professionals, educators, and RI operators with a special interest in creating the conditions where humanities scholars and technical experts can fruitfully collaborate in answering humanities research questions.
