Citizen Experiences in Cultural Heritage Archives: a Data JourneyEnrico Daga
Digital archives of memory institutions are typically concerned with the cataloguing of artefacts of artistic, historical, and cultural value. Recently, new forms of citizen participation in cultural heritage have emerged, producing a wealth of material spanning from visitors’ experiential feedback on exhibitions and cultural artefacts to digitally mediated interactions like the ones happening on social media platforms. In this talk, I will touch upon the problems of integrating citizen experiences in cultural heritage archives. I argue for good reasons for institutions to archive people’s responses to cultural objects, and then look at the impact that this has on the data infrastructures. I argue that a knowledge organisation system for “data journeys” can help in disentangling problems that include issues of distribution, authoritativeness, interdependence, privacy, and rights management.

The document discusses the need for a new digital research infrastructure called DARIAH to support humanities research in Europe. It proposes that DARIAH would provide access to digitized cultural heritage data and tools to process this information. The infrastructure would link distributed resources across Europe and support innovative, international and interdisciplinary digital humanities research through a decentralized network of national and thematic organizations. Preparation projects are underway to define DARIAH's strategic vision, business model, technical architecture and governance structure.
(BIG) DATA SCIENCE AND HISTORICAL ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDIES: A METHODOLOGICAL, ...4Science
This document discusses the opportunities and challenges of applying big data science and digital humanities approaches to historical archaeological studies. It argues that while archaeological and historical data is growing in volume, it remains fragmented, contextual, and produced by humans rather than instruments. Therefore, historians and archaeologists need multidisciplinary data management and analysis skills to integrate diverse data sources while maintaining contextual understanding. A digital humanities framework can help analyze these relationships and contextual associations. However, approaches also require strong domain knowledge to avoid decontextualizing data. Virtual research environments may help manage the data lifecycle if they integrate into daily workflows and provide collaborative analysis and modeling tools.
Developing tools in humanities computing Dave Marcial
This document discusses several projects related to digital humanities and computing in the Philippines. It describes projects involving indigenous knowledge preservation in history, linguistics, literature, art, archaeology and music. Other projects include a role-playing game about Negros Oriental history, a simulation game about a university's enrollment process and history, and a system for cataloging specimens in a natural history museum. The document emphasizes that humanities computing is interdisciplinary in nature and involves collaboration between humanities experts and computing specialists.

Digital heritage tools in Ireland - a review (Sharon Webb & Aileen O'Carroll)dri_ireland
Presented at Cultural Heritage, Creative Tools & Archives, National Museum of Denmark, Copenhagen (26-27 June 2013)
This paper reviews the user tools currently in use by Irish Cultural Heritage organisations. We highlight that key challenges for those providing user tools are associated with issues of preservation and sustainability of digital tools, and argue that for cultural heritage organisations the provision of digital tools is as important as providing access to the digital content stored, harvested and aggregated. This review draws on qualitative interviews carried out by the Digital Repository of Ireland (DRI) in order to inform requirements specifications, policy statements, user guidelines and best practices.

Patrimonialization is a process by which a material or immaterial element becomes a constitutive part of a community’s identity that imbues said element with meaning and significance. Heritage objects have a dual nature, they are primary objects (natural or man-made) in addition to secondary objects - artifacts –, descriptions of the primary ob-ject with the aim of adding a semantic function and enriching its role as documents and testimony of natural and social facts. As documents the characteristics assigned, added, or highlighted are dependent on the natural or social relevance of the specific object, a curator's choice. A conceptual model of the patrimonialization process through which an object became a heritage object is proposed. The model emphasizes the role of the Pat-rimonialization Justification, a paradata dossier in documenting the decisions, criteria, and justifications of a curator to assign to an object the status of a heritage object and in-corporate it in a collection of a heritage institution. The model reuses classes and proper-ties of other ontologies to contextualize the patrimonialization process and the docu-ments involved, including the references that support the curator’s decision of patrimo-nialize an object and include it in a heritage collection.
