NEW TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE ARTS AND HUMANITIES CONFERENCE
Thursday 20 and Friday 21 September 2001
Institute of Romance Studies, Senate House, Malet Street, LONDON, UK.
Organisers Professor Michael Worton (UCL) and Professor Sandra Kemp (Royal
College of Art)
Conference website
http://www.ucl.ac.uk/newtechnologies/
About the conference
This conference aims to explore the implications of the 'new
technologies' in terms of both teaching and research and, crucially,
in broader social and ethical terms. The conference will focus not on
technical aspects, but on the wider issues of ethics, gender,
cognition, and ideologies and, indeed, theologies of the object in
the new virtual world.
Major keynote speakers will present their latest thinking and there will
also be workshop sessions led by eminent specialists on archiving,
exhibiting and online teaching.
The conference will provide an opportunity for the sharing of perspectives
on the use and the implications of new technologies in research and
teaching in the arts and humanities. It will also be an occasion for
active participation in workshops and the sharing of good practice.
Exhibition of new technologies
An exhibition accompanying the conference will take place at University
College London from 20-22 September. This will enable all conference
participants to have hands-on experience of some successful projects in
research, teaching and online exhibiting. The exhibition will also be open
to students and members of the public.

Subject: ARL Announces..Introduction to XML Workshop, August 15-17, 2001
ARL Announces . . .
An Introduction to XML Workshop
August 15-17, 2001
Charlottesville, VA
Taught by seasoned SGML and XML developers from the Electronic
Text Center, the University of Virginia's internationally-renowned
internet library, this three-day workshop will engage in an
intensive study of XML with specific consideration of how XML is
used and might be used in the creation of digital content for
libraries. While there will be some lecture, the primary source
of learning will come from hands-on demonstration and
experimentation.
Topics to be covered include:
1. XML: what is it? how does it differ from SGML and HTML?
2. The basics of reading Document Type Definitions (DTD's) and
understanding the reasons for using them when constructing and
writing XML content.
3. Implementing methods of content transformation (including XSL
and cascading stylesheets) so the XML we build can be delivered,
read, and used in a variety of formats.
Registration information is available at: http://db.arl.org/xml/
Price for the workshop is: ARL Members $795/Nonmembers $895
ARL is making arrangements with the Best Western Cavalier Inn
for accomodations. The workshop itself will take place at the
University of Virginia.
