Building the social graph of the history of European integration: A pipeline for humanist-machine interaction in the digital humanities

Building the social graph of the history of European integration: A pipeline for humanist-machine interaction in the digital humanities

The breadth and scale of multimedia archives provides a tremendous potential for historical research that hasn't been fully tapped up to know. In this paper we want to discuss the approach taken by the History of Europe application, a demonstrator for the integration of human and machine computation that combines the power of face recognition technology with two distinctively different crowd-sourcing approaches to compute co-occurrences of persons in historical image sets.

Lunettes hyperconnectées et altérité

Lunettes hyperconnectées et altérité

The arrival on the market of “hyperconnected” glasses is raising many questions on the increasing mediation of social relationships through digital tools. “Google Glasses” are designed to be permanently connected to the Internet, and can be worn all day long to add digital information to our “natural” field of vision and to record our various actions.

Cloud Atlas et le futur du futur. Sur un possible destin de la société industrielle

Maxime Derian nous invite à mener une réflexion à propos d’un film qui, à son sens, a tout d’un futur classique. De même que Blade Runner qui fut un succès à retardement, pour Cloud Atlas, il pourrait en aller de même. Cette réalisation cinématographique pose une question inédite : celle du futur du futur.

Der Heldengedenktag in der Wehrmacht

Der Heldengedenktag in der Wehrmacht

This study attempts to clarify how Heroes' Memorial Day was adapted against the background of the National Socialist concept, what means the Wehrmacht used, how the celebrations were held, what symbols and what rituals were used. Particular attention is paid to the celebrations among the troops in peace and in war.

Creative Social Engineering? Reform Initiatives in Vocational Education and Professional Orientation (ca. 1880-1930)

Creative Social Engineering? Reform Initiatives in Vocational Education and Professional Orientation (ca. 1880-1930)

Despite obvious connections between the industrial sector and that of technical-vocational schooling and training (cf. Blankertz, 1969) the historical importance of industry-related entrepreneurship for education in the whole of Europe remains underappreciated. In social-cultural and educational historiography alike States and/or Churches, rather than the industry and associated networks, tend to be connected to attempts at societal reform (see, e.g. de Swaan, 1988).
