This spring is full of travels: This time, we're in #Taipei, #Taiwan, for a joint conference organised by #NCCU (National Chengchi University) and #UniTrier, with two days of a packed programme, followed by a day trip and meetings with several #universities, among them #NTU (National Taiwan University) and Academia Sinica, in the following days.

(Very happy to be here, of course, for all the good academic reasons, but also because of the local food...)

The second day of the joint #NCCU and #UniTrier conference is in full swing. The presenters explore the role and theme of AI, very broadly speaking, in the cultural production, society, research and education in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Japan, and beyond. Fascinating!

It was very rainy, cold and windy yesterday, especially on the coast, but we did take a spectacular day trip to the Helping Island Geopark near Keelung. Just look at these rock formations!

After the conference & day trip, it was time for meetings. We did plenty! I took part in delegation meetings with #AcademiaSinica and #NTU (National Taiwan Univ.), but there were many more. We learned about exchange opportunities, memoranda were signed, and we presented each others' research priorities and focus areas, and found lots of overlap! #Biodiversity #WorldLiterature #Sinology #DigitalHumanities #ArtifcialIntelligence #NaturalLanguageProcessing, to name just a few. #tcdh #UTrier

I really enjoyed my visits to #DH colleagues: I met with a group at #NTU's "Research Center for Digital Humanities" #RCDH founded in 2007! With representatives of the "Taiwanese Association for Digital Humanities" #TADH. And with a team from #AcademiaSinica's "Center for Digital Cultures" #ASCDC, also founded in 2007. We had great conversations on DH in Taiwan, Optical Character Recognition, Linked Open Data, Large Language Models, #ADHO and the global DH community, our centers, and more! @tcdh

Finally, if you want to learn more about some of the people, centers, and universities involved in DH in Taiwan, here's a tentative list! To be expanded...

@christof Alle DHD Konferenzen 2014-2024. Von welchen Institutionen/Projekten kamen die Teilnehmer? Netzwerkdarstellung. Wir könnten auch nach den einzelnen Teilnehmern fragen, aber das wird dann noch ein bisschen unübersichtlicher ;) kleine Arbeit von Tinghui Duan.

@christof In FactGrid gibt es daneben zum deutschen NFDI-Feld einiges an Vernetzung - auch zu den 600 Leuten mit FactGrid Konten - wir denken darüber nach, die Daten in FactGrid zu einem geschlossenen DH-Projekt zusammenzuziehen und einen etwas größeren Blog-Beitrag mit Mustersuchen zu schreiben.
