DARIAH (Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities) is the pan-European infrastructure for arts and humanities scholars and operates as an ERIC (European Research Infrastructure Consortium). With over 22 Members and several Cooperating Partners in eleven non-member countries, the Annual Event is chiefly a community event that aims to bring together researchers and scholars to present their work and projects. The event is free of charge for registration and will feature over 25 paper presentation, four panels, and over 50 posters and demonstrations across two and a half days (June 19th to 21st), including a keynote from Meredith Martin, founder and faculty director of the Center for Digital Humanities at Princeton University. June 18th is the internal day, where DARIAH bodies and Working Groups hold meetings and workshops that are open to all Annual Event participants.
DANS’s involvement in the DARIAH Annual Event is a long tradition. From the structural side, DANS operates within the DARIAH Coordination Office in the Integration Officer position, helmed by Andrea Scharnhorst and supported by Kim Ferguson, Simon Saldner, and Marita Everhardt, the duties of which include (but aren’t limited to) helping organise the Annual Event. Meanwhile, DANS regularly contributes submissions to the Annual Event from other initiatives and projects. At this upcoming Annual Event, there will be presentations and posters from DANS staff related to project outputs from EU-funded projects such as Polifonia, MuseIT, and Now-Museum.
More details on the upcoming Annual Event can be found via the registration landing page; more details on the various papers, panels, and posters will be made available via the conference schedule in mid-May, but registration is already open from now until June 4th.
