AMS 2023 Call for Proposals
Ancient MakerSpaces showcases digital approaches to the study of the ancient world. Since 2017, Ancient MakerSpaces has served as a venue at the AIA-SCS Annual Meeting for scholars, librarians, and students to share their ongoing
digital scholarship and pedagogical work, as well as a space for hands-on, peer-based learning about digital resources and computational methods.
AMS 2023 is a collaborative, interactive forum showcasing digital ancient scholarship through lighting talks and live project demonstrations. We invite submissions from individuals working on digital tools, platforms, repositories,
or techniques for engaging with ancient texts and material culture. Whether in the context of research, outreach, or teaching, we welcome digital work in all stages of planning and completion: in-progress or unpublished builds, published projects, and those
left glitching or unfinished.
Submissions from all disciplines within ancient studies are welcome. Past presentations have covered a broad range of topics, including:
·
digital pedagogy
·
AR/VR environments
·
digital mapping
·
text encoding, annotating, or editing
·
network analysis
·
digitization and modeling (including epigraphic or numismatic materials)
·
linked open data or data preservation
AMS is committed to providing an inclusive learning environment. We welcome participants of any identity, age, gender, nationality, race, disability, or sexual orientation. AMS celebrates individuals linking digital technology and
the ancient world, regardless of their affiliation, educational level, professional status, or position. All individuals are welcome to submit a proposal. We especially encourage submissions from scholars of identities that have been historically marginalized
in the field.
