Digital Humanities After Hours: Sigurður Gunnarsson

Sigurður Gunnarsson, photographer at the National Gallery of Iceland, will share the behind-the-scenes challenges of capturing artworks through photography, and how those challenges are solved. He will talk about creating faithful digital reproductions, getting colors just right, and the trusted methods and standards professionals use to make sure the artwork looks as true to life as possible.

“Digital Humanities and Arts”... sounds fancy, but what does it actually mean in practice? Come find out in our new series of informal talks  (some in English, some in Icelandic) happening on selected Tuesdays at 16:30 in Edda 209.

We’ll bring together experts from across the field of Digital Humanities and Arts, each presenting their research in small, digestible bits.

There will be free popcorn and plenty of ideas to share!

And if you can’t make it in person, all talks will be livestreamed on the MSHL YouTube channel.

Full lineup here.
