Digital Research in the Humanities and Arts [DRHA] is an annual conference
whose goal is to bring together the creators, users, distributors, and
custodians of digital research and resources in the arts, design and humanities
to explore the capture, archiving and communication of complex and creative
research processes. DRHA provides an intellectual and physical space for
cross-disciplinary discussion and the generation of new ideas, resulting in
many new networks and productive research relationships
Human beings, as users, have always been obsessed with finding new ways of
communicating through various techniques and technologies.
The rapid technological changes that have occurred during the last two decades
have allowed us – the users – to communicate through various social media
platforms, providing us with more easily, faster and more frequently ways of
communicating.However there are always concerns about other impacts those
technologies might have on the communication processes.
The aim of the conference is to facilitate conversations on Design and
collaborations between
Digital Arts and Humanities,
Creative Industries,
Digital Libraries and Archives,
For the first time the DRHA conference would like to support and bring together
the Academic environment with that of the Creative industries under a
conference that will affect the current interdisciplinary creative practices.
