Lindemann, Malínek, Tolonen #dh2025

Thanks everyone at our panel at #dh2025 & especially the organizers!

Strong representation of CASCADE and MECANO at #DH2025. Both of our Marie Curie Training Networks have a paper in the same session by early career researchers! Well done! www.conftool.pro/dh2025/index...

Representing #bibliodata at #dh2025!

People waiting to get to the room for the keynote at #dh2025! It is quite hot in here.

The #DH2025 in Lisbon is on. Full room at the FAIR data in the Wikibase Ecosystem -workshop from early in the morning. Let’s have a productive week everyone!

The Eighteenth-Century Studies Collection offers over 700 volumes from two perpetual access digital collections and includes a complete archive of all content published in the Oxford University Studies in the Enlightenment series between 1955–2021. Find out more > bit.ly/digital-enli...

Being based in Finland sometimes means going to where others are. My grand tour 2025: MECANO in Rome; DARIAH in Göttingen; ECSS in Stirling; cancelled Morrissey gig in Stockholm; CERL in Brussels & InkCode DH2 in San Miniato. To come: DH2025 in Lisbon next week & CASCADE in Helsinki in late August.

Tranströmerbiblioteket - public library in Stockholm

Speedway no more. I guess there's worse things in life than cancelled Morrissey gig in Stockholm.

My #Dariah2025 cut short but you still have many great DARIAH-FI peeps to talk to in Göttingen! On my way now to ECSSS in Stirling. Despite of German trains likely to make our panel tomorrow at 9am on "The Clarendon Edition of Hume’s History of England". Not possible to do everything? See you!

We bring news from The Past at #DARIAH2025 in Göttingen with representatives from dariah.fi (and @tolonen.bsky.social )... In a surrounding that sweats academic heritage, and home to figures such as Koch, Gauss, Heisenberg and Oppenheimer. Look for them in city walls, look for us to chat!

Guess what? Bibliodata WG, #DARIAHFI & friends are in Göttingen for the #DARIAH2025 conference. @DARIAHeu @bibliodataWG @DariahFi

This week we arrive in Göttingen for #DARIAH2025 Annual Event! We are looking forward to connecting with the wider DARIAH community to hear about research in #DigitalHumanities sphere & exploring this year's theme "The Past" 👀 ➡️ Find all info here: annualevent.dariah.eu

🔄 Fresh look, richer content! The updated DARIAH-FI site is now live—dive into new resources, projects & upcoming #DigitalHumanities events in Finland 👉 www.dariah.fi Great work from our core team once again! #DARIAH #DH

You did not ask for it but I promised. One photo from Vatican library.

Next week I'll post something from Vatican Libraries if you find out what is MECANO.

I had the honour of delivering this year’s Voltaire Foundation Digital Enlightenment Studies Lecture in Oxford. The talk is now available on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6Nf...
