In the fall I was at a Swedish conference on psychological defence, where I heard a super interesting talk on how both production and consumption of art and culture increases in countries at war. War has so many ripple effects beyond the battlefield. (Link to article in Danish) https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/kultur/hvad-er-det-egentlig-vi-kaemper-kunstnere-vil-opruste-vores-kultur-i-takt-med-krudt
'Hvad er det egentlig, vi kæmper for?' Kunstnere vil opruste vores kultur i takt med krudt og kugler

Det er ikke kun det danske forsvar, der skal styrkes, mener en række kunstnere og kulturfolk.

I am pathetically proud whenever I get an article through review. Having @RosannaFarboel and @atommarie in my corner sure helps - both with the review and the proudness 🥹

Digitised Newspapers – A New Eldorado for Historians?

The application of digital technologies to historical newspapers have changed the research landscape historians were used to. An Eldorado? Despite undeniable advantages, the new digital affordance of historical newspapers also transforms research practices and confronts historians with new challenges. Drawing on a growing community of practices, the impresso project invited scholars experienced with digitised newspaper collections with the aim of encouraging a discussion on heuristics, source criticism and interpretation of digitized newspapers. This volume provides a snapshot of current research on the subject and offers three perspectives: how digitisation is transforming access to and exploration of historical newspaper collections; how automatic content processing allows for the creation of new layers of information; and, finally, what analyses this enhanced material opens up. ‘ impresso - Media Monitoring of the Past’ is an interdisciplinary research project that applies text mining tools to digitised historical newspapers and integrates the resulting data into historical research workflows by means of a newly developed user interface. The question of how best to adapt text mining tools and their use by humanities researchers is at the heart of the impresso enterprise.
