[Corpora-List] Digital Transformations in the Arts and Humanities - Big Data Projects Call

[Alon Lischinsky]

Dear all,

this call for proposals from the AHRC seems tailor-made for projects
looking to develop corpora or corpus tools.

Digital Transformations in the Arts and Humanities - Big Data Projects Call

The AHRC is pleased to invite proposals for projects to explore Big
Data from an Arts and Humanities perspective. The AHRC has a total of
£4m capital funding available under this call.  As a main output,
these research projects should produce a tangible asset that sustains
beyond the life of the project.

This call forms part of the Digital Transformations in the Arts and
Humanities theme, and proposals must both compliment and add value to
the core aims of the theme, and previous research funded through the
theme.  The call aims to address some of the challenges that arise
from working with big data, as well as asking interesting questions of
data, and producing innovative and creative assets for future Arts and
Humanities research.

Funding for either smaller projects of up to £100k, or larger projects
of up to £600k is available on a fEC basis, with the AHRC meeting
around 80% of the fEC. Awards should last for a maximum of 15 months
and will be expected to start on 1 January 2014 and finish by 31 March
2015.
