SMART Data Sprint 2018

SMART Data Sprint is an intensive hands-on work, driven by social media data. We adopt inventive and experimental ways of reading, seeing and analysing platform data, with the aim of responding a set of research questions. For one week participants will have the chance to attend to keynote lectures, short talks, and parallel sessions of practical labs. After that, experts and scholars will invite participants to join projects and work in a collective problem.

We are pleased to announce that Bernhard Rieder (associate professor in New Media and Digital Culture at the University of Amsterdam and a researcher with the Digital Methods Initiative) and Dhiraj Murthy (associate Professor of Journalism and Sociology at the University of Texas at Austin) are joining SMART Data Sprint 2018 with keynote talks and practical labs.
