Digital Humanities prize workshop supports Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Connections

7 May 2013

Funding of £5,000 has been awarded to the winning entry from the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Digital Humanities month prize workshop.

Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Connections Project Team The project, titled 'Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Connections' aims to create signposts across campus, which will encourage visitors to find out more about the space around them, and share their experiences online via an app.

Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Connections was designed by Jia Liu (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Archaeology), Emma Norris (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Epidemiology & Public Health), GeorgeÌýNeris (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Centre for Sustainable Heritage, Bartlett) and Peter Williams (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Information Studies) as part of Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Digital Humanities month, supported by the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Grand Challenge of Intercultural Interaction. This support was made possible thanks to an award to the Grand Challenges from the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Annual Fund, which relies on the contributions of Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê alumni to support scholarships, research and work across Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê.
