Author(s)
  • Dr., van Zundert, Joris, Huygens Institute for the History of the Netherlands
    • Bionote: Drs. Joris J. van Zundert (1972) is a senior researcher and developer in humanities computing. He holds a research position in the department of literary studies at the Huygens Institute for the History of The Netherlands, a research institute of The Netherlands Royal Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW). His main interest as a researcher and developer is in the possibilities of computational algorithms for the analysis of literary and historic texts, and the nature and properties of humanities information and data modeling. His current research focuses on computer science and humanities interaction and the tensions between hermeneutics and ‘big data’ approaches.
  • Prof., Earl, Graeme, King's College London, UK
    • Bionote: Graeme is a Professor of Digital Humanities at King’s. He studied and worked as an archaeologist, and became increasingly fascinated by the ways in which cultural heritage and digital technologies collide. Since then he has worked on a broad range of archaeological, digital humanities, digital economy and web science projects. Since 2005 his activities have focused on the port of Imperial Rome, as co-director of the Portus Project. His research interests include imaging, interaction design, online learning design, augmented and virtual reality, computer vision, accessibility, research repositories, electronic publication, geographic information systems, survey and remote sensing.
  • Mr., Vincent, Matthew, University of Murcia, Spain
    • Bionote: Vincent earned his MA in Anthropology from UC San Diego in 2013, and is completing his Ph.D. at the University of Murcia (Spain). He has worked in Jordan since 2004 at sites such as Tall al-'Umayri, Tall Jalul, Khirbat al-Balu'a and more recently Khirbat Faynan. His research focuses on the application of database technologies for archaeological research and cultural heritage conservation. As a grad student, Vincent co-founded Project Mosul and the subsequent startup Rekrei, a project to crowd-source imagery for photogrammetric reconstruction as a method to preserve the memory of lost cultural heritage. Founded in March, 2015, the project is developing new tools to empower the public to participate in the recovery of heritage.
