Ce panel souhaite explorer l’évolution du patrimoine et de l’histoire des codes, que ce soit sous l’influence de la préservation des codes source ou encore d’un renouvellement historiographique porté entre autres par les Critical Code Studies. Les initiatives de la fondation Software Heritage depuis 2016 de préservation mais aussi valorisation des codes comme patrimoine, de même que les travaux en cours dans le champ historique témoignent de ce renouveau qui fait suite aux travaux de Nathan Ensmenger, Martin Campbell-Kelly et bien d’autres.

Cet article s’intéresse à l’impact de formes d’intelligence artificielle (IA) sur trois aspects de la pratique de l’histoire : découverte et lecture de sources primaires, interprétation puis écriture et diffusion de la recherche. Des corpus de sources sont collectés, rassemblés et traités avec des algorithmes liés à l’apprentissage machine (machine learning) ; la production de sources est modifiée par le développement des grands modèles de langage (LLM) donnant à voir des documents plausibles plutôt que véridiques ou authentiques, invitant à réfléchir au futur de la critique historienne.

1967 was a year that saw the public debut of a fundamental technological innovation in Germany and France: Starting from the 25th of August and the 1st of October respectively, emissions in color were regularly diffused on national television. From this point onwards, consumer could see a steadily increasing number of programs in color, advertisers were able to present products in televised commercials in a different way, and the consumer electronics industry was provided with a new business opportunity.

The role of CD-ROMs has often been underestimated in the journey towards digitization and media convergence (Jenkins, 2006) by the current state of the art (Schafer, 2022), leading to limited exploration (although we may mention some analysis in game studies, like Therrien, 2019, as well as in the field of cultural heritage, i.e, Lavigne, 2005).

The dissolution of the Eastern Bloc in 1989/91 led to a significant decline in East German steel production and the closure of many plants, mainly due to low productivity rates and technological deficits compared to new international competitors. However, the Maxhütte Unterwellenborn in Thuringia managed to endure this period, largely by adapting Western technology. First, a technologically advanced rolling mill was installed at the site by the Belgian Cockerill Sambre in 1985, followed by the acquisition and modernisation by Luxembourg’s ARBED group in 1992.

This presentation aimed to highlight new and future challenges in the history of technology (related to new "values", topics, missing narratives, digital and public history...)

The presentation is an introduction into the metadata standard CDMI / CLARIN used in the born-digital interview collections in Oral History

In recent years, the critical turn in digital humanities has sparked numerous discussions about digital literacy in the discipline of history. While critical work has focused on data, tools, and the skills that historians need in the current digital age, questions remain about the broader contours of digital literacy and the multiple meanings that could be attributed to it.

At the intersection of Digital History, History of the Digital, and Public History, this panel, organised and moderated by Valérie Schafer and consisting of four presentations, aims to explore the connections between public history and web history. It particularly delves into issues related to memories, legacies, as well as the intertwining of individual and collective experiences that shape the early days of the Web and contemporary practices.
