SUMMARY:Typographic Landscape Research Network (TLRN) seminar\, 2 June
DESCRIPTION:You are cordially invited to join the upcoming Typographic Landscape Research Network (TLRN) seminar on Monday 2nd June\, at 6pm UK time: \n\nThe technology-supported exploration of linguistic landscapes with Lingscape with Dr Christoph Purschke. \n\nThis research seminar is free & open to all. Join us in person in the University of Reading’s Department of Typography\, Room T4. To join via MS Teams\, please click here. \n\n\nThis presentation is for you if you are interested in learning and discussing how large volumes of image data (in this case thousands of photos of text in urban spaces) can be captured\, stored\, geo-referenced\, analysed and tagged in an open source citizen science project. \n\n\nAbstract:\nFor almost nine years now\, the participatory research platform Lingscape has offered a way to explore linguistic landscapes with technical support. The various projects hosted on the platform have not only significantly expanded the analytic capabilities of the application\, but have also led to the introduction of new features in response to community requests – to address different usage scenarios. In this talk\, I will trace the evolution of the project and the challenges of developing it into a collaborative research platform. I will also discuss Lingscape as an example of a technical tool for language linguistic landscapes research in the context of current technological developments. \n\n\nAbout our speaker:\nDr Christoph Purschke is Associate Professor in Computational Linguistics and Head of the Culture & Computation Lab at the Faculty of Humanities\, Education and Social Sciences at the Université du Luxembourg.
