Την Πέμπτη, 2 Απριλίου 2020, μεσούσης της κοινωνικής απομάκρυνσης λόγω της πανδημίας COVID-19, η Μονάδα Ψηφιακής Επιμέλειας του Ινστιτούτου Πληροφοριακών Συστημάτων του Ερευνητικού Κέντρου ΑΘΗΝΑ διοργάνωσε ένα συνέδριο Ψηφιακών Ανθρωπιστικών Επιστημών το οποίο διεξήχθη εξ ολοκλήρου στο Twitter.
Το συνέδριο έλαβε χώρα στο πλαίσιο της Εθνικής Υποδομής για τις Ψηφιακές Ανθρωπιστικές Τέχνες και Επιστήμες και για τη Γλωσσική Έρευνα και Καινοτομία ΑΠΟΛΛΩΝΙΣ, την οποία συντονίζει το Ε.Κ. ΑΘΗΝΑ, με προσκεκλημένους ειδικούς των Ψηφιακών Ανθρωπιστικών Επιστημών από την Ευρώπη και την Αμερική, οι οποίοι παρουσίασαν εισηγήσεις για την «αλλαγή παραδείγματος» και το πώς σε καιρό πανδημίας η έρευνα βρίσκει τρόπους να ξεπερνά τους αποκλεισμούς.
Κατά το καινοτόμο αυτό εγχείρημα, οι εισηγήσεις απαρτίζονταν από 20 tweet σε διάστημα 15 λεπτών η καθεμία, σε θεματικές περιοχές όπως:
- Εξ αποστάσεως εκπαίδευση / Ψηφιακή Εκπαίδευση
- Εξ αποστάσεως έρευνα / Ψηφιακή Έρευνα
- Σπάζοντας την απομόνωση: ψηφιακά εργαλεία, μέθοδοι και πλατφόρμες
- Ψηφιακή Ιστορία / Φιλολογία / Αρχαιολογία της Ασθένειας και της Επιδημίας
- Ψηφιακές Ανθρωπιστικές Επιστήμες και μελέτη της Ιατρικής και της Υγείας.
Ακολουθώντας το hashtag #DHgoesVIRAL στο Twitter, κάθε ενδιαφερόμενος μπορούσε να παρακολουθήσει τις ανακοινώσεις του συνεδρίου, ενώ οι εγγεγραμμένοι χρήστες του Twitter είχαν τη δυνατότητα να διαδρούν με τους ομιλητές και τους λοιπούς συμμετέχοντες.
Το συνέδριο είχε μεγάλη απήχηση, ενώ το hashtag #DHgoesVIRAL έγινε trending topic στην Ελλάδα κατά τη διάρκεια και μετά τη διεξαγωγή του συνεδρίου.

Imagine reading a literary work and accessing the archaeology of a place it mentions; or linking from a footnote to the scholarship on which the reference is based; or comparing an object in one museum to those in other collections around the world 1/20 #DHgoesVIRAL

There are obstacles to doing this. How can you Find and Access what you want? And can you then Interoperate and Reuse it? These FAIR principles https://t.co/b4OIVkTlll facilitate knowledge discovery and use for humans and machines alike 2/20 #DHgoesVIRAL
— Elton Barker (@eltonteb) April 2, 2020
One solution is Linked Open Data. LOD is a way of connecting online resources that have some element in common. Find out more about LOD using apples, bananas, beer and chocolate with 2 funky Belgian guys as your guides https://t.co/9OGk4LO5u0 3/20 #DHgoesVIRAL cc @RubenVerborgh

The community is now EVERYTHING. Just like our LOD model is distributive – power lies in the network not in any one data provider – so too our structure is decentralised. The @PelagiosNetwork is a formal Association of equal Partners: https://t.co/sMPVSFfZGd 18/20 #DHgoesVIRAL

Quinn Dombrowski | @quinnanya
Fun feels like an odd topic right now, but in some way it was no less strange before. In academia, especially the humanities, we place so much value on “seriousness". “Serious” is a compliment. But this sets up a dichotomy that devalues its perceived opposite. #DHgoesViral 2/20
