Presentation

During the past decade, a massive body of audiovisual heritage has become digitally accessible, on websites of archives, through initiatives such as Europeana.eu and EUscreen.eu, and on platforms such as YouTube and Vimeo. The symposium Video Tracing and Tracking in Digital Humanities Research explores the possibilities of using fingerprinting and video tracking technologies in this area in general and for research into the circulation and appropriation of digital audiovisual heritage in particular. The symposium invites to scholars, archivists and IT-developers with expertise in video tracking, Digital Humanities and heritage studies to participate and create a network for future research in this area to answer questions such as: How can Digital Humanities researchers adapt state of the art fingerprinting and video tracking technologies for their critical research? How do strategies of curation shape the appropriation of digitized heritage? What new perspectives on European history and identity do digital curations and appropriations of audiovisual heritage create? How can audiovisual archives better foster the re-use of Europe’s audiovisual heritage?
