Digital humanities early career välipala

February 18 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Digital Humanities early career välipala is a monthly meet-up for early career humanities and social sciences researchers. It offers a free form opportunity to discuss and share experiences of digital methods in research. The focus is on digital good practices, stumbling blocks and tricks regarding use of data, tools and analysis methods.

Snacks will be provided in the form of insights on new methods, best practice testimonials… and cake!

Välipalat Spring 2025:

Tuesday, February 18: Historical sources and network analysis
Do you plan to use network analysis in your research?  Are you wondering about what it takes to make your messy historical data collection ready for network analysis? During this session we focus on utilizing network analysis as a tool on historical materials, be it a correspondence corpus, trade networks, or something else.

Tuesday, March 18: Digital ethnographers and folklorists, how to analyze data?
Following online discussion or a community? conducting fieldwork online and onsite? In this session we want to discuss readiness and methods to approach and analyze data obtained in digital spaces, or hybrid fieldwork sites, either as the main body of data or in combination with qualitative data.

Tuesday, April 22: Digitizing your own data? Dos and don’ts
Are you digitizing materials during a project or plan to? Taking snapshots or scanning? In this välipala we discuss different formats for digitizing objects, archive or printed material, methods for organizing, analyzing or annotating images, and considerations regarding storage and sharing.

Friday, May 23: Field trip: Digital Humanities Hackathon (time/place tbc)

Each session starts with a brief introduction into the theme by a researcher working on that topic to facilitate free-form and open conversation. We aim to build a community and space to create and find connections. Welcome from 3 to 4 pm at Metsätalo UniCafe!

The DH välipalat are organised by and for PhD and early-career researchers. We are a group of interdisciplinary folk based in Helsinki supported by DARIAH-FI The digital research infrastructure for the arts and humanities.

Inquiries can be sent to ines.matres@helsinki.fi
