The purpose of this track is to analyse the current practise of digital humanities and how the humanities may evolve through their engagement with technology, media, and computational methods. Humanities are facing an era full of challenges and opportunities regarding the accessibility to ever growing and interconnected digital data. In this context of big data, infrastructures, citizen science, visualization, etc. are examples of key aspects needed to enable cultural and scholar exploration. Our objective is to draw together humanists who are engaged in digital and computer-assisted research, teaching, and creation.
