Research Data in Context: Exploring the Intersection of Art and Research
University of the Arts Helsinki Library is organizing a seminar on Research Data Management in arts and artistic research.
Research Data Management (RDM) has been a current topic in the academic community in Finland and internationally, but the discussions have mainly focused on research data in other fields of science than arts. Research data and materials in arts and artistic research are varied and diverse, and this seminar aims to illustrate the particular practices in these fields.
Uniarts Helsinki is an international forerunner in education and research in the field of arts, and this event discusses RDM from a point of view that is relevant to researchers at Uniarts Helsinki and other higher education institutions, artists working in the intersection of art and research, and experts from research services and libraries.
The speakers include researchers from Uniarts Helsinki, experts on research data from Finland, and international guests from Switzerland and Norway. The event will be a hybrid event, taking place in Music Centre in Helsinki and online, and it’s open to everyone. There will be an opportunity for networking and discussions. Free admission.
