The European Commission has chosen Time Machine as one of the six proposals retained for preparing large scale research initiatives to be strategically developed in the next decade. The C²DH/University of Luxembourg is a member of the Time Machine consortium.

On 25-26 October 2018, the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) organised the two day conference and workshop Digital Hermeneutics in History: Theory and Practice, on occasion of the official launch of the Ranke.2 teaching platform for Digital Source Criticism.

Lecture by Patrik Svensson, Professor of Humanities and Information Technology at Umeå University. The event is part of the C²DH lecture series 'New Horizons: Confronting the Digital Turn in the Humanities'.

After launching the Ranke.2 teaching platform on digital source criticism in autumn 2018, I assumed that its appearance and form – short colourful animations and easy-to-digest chunks of information – would soon catch the attention of lecturers and encourage them to use it in their courses. But a recent meeting with colleagues made me realise that personal contact and hands-on experience with the material are key to making my target audience realise that the resource offers something they may need.

The 6th DH Benelux Conference will take place on 11-13 September 2019 at the University of Liège (ULiège) in Belgium. DH Benelux is an initiative that aims to further the collaboration between Digital Humanities activities in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg.

The Media Studies Commission of the International Federation of Television Archives (FIAT/IFTA) is organising the international seminar ‘1989: Mapping New Frontiers of Europe and Beyond’ in collaboration with the C²DH.

Who’s afraid of the Digital? This was the leading question of C²DH’s first Forum Z in 2019, organised by the Digital History Unit of the centre. Museum curators, schoolteachers, researchers and professional educators presented their projects in the House of Startups in Luxembourg City in the form of hands-on workstations followed by an round table discussing the merits of new digital projects with the audience in a casual atmosphere.
