The collaborative group, Rochester Cultural Heritage Imaging, Visualization, and Education (R-CHIVE) is hosting a conference in Rochester, NY on June 19 and 20 to consider the topics of how modern imaging technologies may be used to assist conservators, codicologists, and scholars and how materials studies may be used to inform the image collection. Registration cost is very nominal: $10 for students, $30 for others. Information about the conference and registration is available at the "Conference" tab at www.r-chive.net.
R-CHIVE unites faculty, research staff, and students at the Rochester Institute of Technology and the University of Rochester who are exploring technological solutions for the study of manuscripts. Members of the group have a long history of effort on projects to recover the text from historical manuscripts, including the Archimedes Palimpsest, the "New Finds" palimpsests at St. Catherine's Monastery, the c. 1491 World Map by Henricus Martellus Germanus, and the Codex Vercellensis. ---------------------- *Roger L.
