where: Beeld en Geluid, Hilversum
what: keynotes and hands-on workshop
who: anyone interested in studying (Dutch) public debates across media with data and computational methods
Join us for a workshop on conducting cross-media research featuring keynotes by Emillie De Keulenaar (University of Groningen, Faculty of Arts) and Sal Hagen (University of Amsterdam, Faculty of Humanities).
With the growing availability of media data, cross-media research is essential to understand complex societal issues and public discourse. This workshop delves into the complexities of analyzing several media ecosystems, addressing practical, methodological, and conceptual challenges. To this end, we will use Twi-XL, a cross-media research project funded by PDI-SSH. We focus on Dutch tweets and public broadcasts, providing Jupyter Notebooks for hands-on exploration.
This workshop welcomes researchers and practitioners from various fields, including humanities, social sciences, communication sciences, media studies, and archival studies. Technical expertise is beneficial but not mandatory, the workshop explicitly addresses SSH scholars who are new to using computational methods.
The workshop will be held at Beeld en Geluid, Hilversum. Online participation possible on request. Please register using this form. For further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Sarah Burkhardt via: s.burkhardt[at]uva.nl.
