of the European University Institute in Florence hosts THATCamp (The

THATCamp Florence is organized in collaboration with the Fondazione
Rinascimento Digitale and with several European scholarly institutions.
THATcamp is a so-called "un-conference" promoted by the Center for
History and New Media at George Mason University in Virginia, which is
partner in organising this event for the first time in Italy. THATCamp
Florence will be preceded by a BootCamp, consisting of introductory
courses in the Digital Humanities, History & Social Sciences and
provided by one or more teachers. 

 

Registered participants for THATCamp Florence will meet in several small
and non hierarchic brainstorming sessions, each of which are coordinated
by a tutor. THATCamp ateliers will be informal: the focus is on the
exchange of ideas, solutions, tools, software, websites and digital
practices in the humanities and social sciences, based on concrete
needs. Participation is open to scholars from Italy and beyond and not
limited to EUI members. All participants will meet at the beginning of
the Camp on Wednesday March 23rd to create the programme.
