InDICEs Bootcamp: Exploring the Future of Cultural Heritage Through Data

23 Nov – 24 Nov Barce­lona

Intro­duc­tion

The InDI­CEs Boot­camp will bring toget­her profes­si­o­nals and prac­ti­ti­o­ners working at the inter­sec­tion of data, digi­ti­za­tion and cultu­ral heri­tage to explore and expe­ri­ment with how data can impact and inform the future of digi­tal cultu­ral heri­tage. Toget­her with Digi­tal­Fems, CIMA, the Euro­pe­ana Stee­ring Commit­tee, Tecno­po­lí­tica/UOC, Wiki­me­di­ans and vari­ous actors from GLAM insti­tu­ti­ons, four Flash Task Forces with up to 8 parti­ci­pants will work on diffe­rent thema­tic areas from gender inequa­lity in CHIs to digi­tal parti­ci­pa­tion in the GLAMs sector and the use of data in parti­ci­pa­tory culture.

Details

The inDI­CEs boot­camp will take place the 23–24 of novem­ber in Barce­lona at the Canò­drom. It will be a dyna­mic event with both hands-on acti­vi­ties as well as keyno­tes and works­hops. Invi­ted spea­kers will share their exper­tise to deve­lop rese­arch hypot­he­ses to imagine the future of how digi­tal, cultu­ral and data can support a more plural, inno­va­tive and egali­ta­rian plat­form for cultu­ral heri­tage. Based on these hypot­he­ses, Flash Task Forces will work on the collec­tion, analy­sis and visu­a­li­za­tion of data as cultu­ral assets. In addi­tion, the boot­camp will also present the InDI­CEs Open Obser­va­tory to a wider audi­ence to share its objec­ti­ves and create new networks for a grea­ter public enga­ge­ment around digi­tal cultu­ral heri­tage.

Phase 1: Hypot­he­sis Design

Parti­ci­pants will deve­lop a hypot­he­sis to post on the plat­form that they will then use to create an acces­si­ble data narra­tive. 

How the Hypot­he­sis is struc­tu­red on the plat­form:

Once a Hypot­he­sis is posted parti­ci­pants can comment, support and amend their Hypot­he­sis on the plat­form. 

⏱️ 1 Week before the boot­camp

A space for discus­sion will be opened for each flash task force in the Hypot­he­sis Assembly where parti­ci­pants can begin to work remo­tely.

⏱️ 24 Hours before the boot­camp

Each flash task force will be provi­ded with supple­men­tary docu­ments and resour­ces for the task force along with an ether­pad/ MIRO board space where they can take notes and work on the plat­form.

Expec­ted Output

• Create a hypot­he­sis propo­sal on the plat­form

Phase 2: Working with Data

Parti­ci­pants will be expec­ted to use video chat/ discus­sion thre­ads/ ether­pad to discuss and colla­bo­rate on the analy­sis of their data. 

Expec­ted Output

• Update on Hypot­he­sis assembly discus­sion thread of their progress for faci­li­ta­tors to be aware of their progress. 
• Submit a survey at the end of day on concerns, ideas, and overall satis­fac­tion of the first day of the event. 

Write your reflec­tion on phase 2:

Phase 3: Data Visu­a­li­za­tion

Parti­ci­pants will have a blen­ded (on/offline) faci­li­ta­ted works­hop on crea­ting a narra­tive and visu­a­li­zing their data along with two hours to work within their task force to create an acces­si­ble visual narra­tive for their hypot­he­sis and data analy­sis. 

Expec­ted Output

Update on Hypot­he­sis assembly discus­sion thread of their progress for faci­li­ta­tors to be aware of their progress, needs, concerns.

Write a summary of your data narra­tive and rela­ted images or docu­ments of your data visu­a­li­za­tion(s):

Phase 4: Presen­ting outco­mes

Parti­ci­pants will be given a Pitch Canvas to orga­nize and deve­lop their presen­ta­ti­ons. They will have one hour to think through how they would like to present their data narra­ti­ves and what mediums would best suit what they have to say and to whom. After they finish prepa­ring their presen­ta­ti­ons, each Task Force will have 15 minu­tes to present their pitch.

Expec­ted Output

• Hypot­he­sis propo­sal amen­ded with visu­a­li­za­tion. 
• Presen­ta­tion to Boot Camp parti­ci­pants of their outco­mes and reflec­ti­ons.
