									<p dir="ltr">Human Futures invites everyone to come and join our series of BROWN BAG LECTURES.&nbsp;</p>
<p dir="ltr">On <strong>November&nbsp;17</strong>, Anna Foka will visit us to speak about the project <em>Quantifying Culture: A Study of AI and Cultural Heritage Collections</em>. Foka is Associate Professor in Information Technology and the Humanities, Associate Senior Lecturer in Digital Humanities, and Director of the Centre for Digital Humanities at Uppsala University.&nbsp;</p>
<p dir="ltr">The project <em>Quantifying Culture: A Study of AI and Cultural Heritage Collections</em> aims to develop a digitalised model that allows for scanning, automated interpretation, and classification of objects using artificial intelligence and machine learning. Focusing on The Museum of World Culture (Världskulturmuseet) in Gothenburg, The Swedish National Archives (Riksarkivet), as well as Gustavianum, Foka and her research group investigate the current digitization practices as well as the ethical and practical questions raised by current and future applications of AI in digital cultural heritage collections. We look very much forward to having Foka visiting us to present the project and talk about how the project explores the ways in which quantitative AI can be connected to qualitative meaning-making in order to make nuanced interpretations of cultural heritage collections.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Participation in the seminar is free and does not require registration. We hope to see you on Zoom (link to Zoom meeting <a href="https://aarhusuniversity.zoom.us/j/61177276034" target="_self" title="here">here</a>) on <strong>November 17 from 12.00 - 13.15</strong>.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
