CHANGE final event

Photo: The CHANGE group CHANGE final event It is not always Norwegian summer nights are as hot as they were in Oslo when Society of Imaging and Technology hosted the Archiving conference in June. It was midsummer with long, bright nights when researchers, experts and practitioners joined discussions for cultural heritage. As the Archiving Conference […]

CHANGE School Poland

CHANGE School Poland The CHANGE School has finally kicked off and all Early Stage Researchers are spending the first week in Warsaw, Poland. The first two days. Monday 10. and Tuesday 11th they have had technical workshops on Multimodal & multiscale – acquisition & processing at the Warsaw University of Technology. Today they have continued […]
