*Full Program*
*Keynote: Viewing at Scale: DH and Image Analysis*Lauren Tilton, Associate
Professor of Digital Humanities, University of Richmond

What might be possible if we explore images as data in DH? This talk will
address this question in two parts. The first will begin by discussing
computational image analysis and then turn to the concept of distant
viewing. Then, we will zoom out to the larger ecosystem of image analysis
in DH and why this is an exciting and pressing moment for DH.
