Digital Humanities

Often, there is a skills mismatch between the Humanities and Computing/Technology. Phrasys is positioned between those two disciplines, and we understand the problems that scholars in the humanities face, and are aware of the most suitable technical solutions for these problems.

If you are embarking on a project involving digitisation of cultural artefacts, please get in touch for advice, help with funding applications, or practical realisations. Through years of working in the humanities (including as a technical reviewer for the AHRC) we have just the experience to help you turn your project idea into a success.

• Do you have some data you want to digitise? We can advise you on the best way to do this, including data format, relevant meta-data you might want to capture, and archiving/back-up strategies. This will enable you to get the most out of your data in later projects, analysing it in ways you might not have anticipated initially.
• Interested in publishing your cultural artefacts, but unsure how? Do you need an iPad or iPhone app for it? Or put it on a website? We can give you advice on what's possible, and what will enable your users to do great things with your data
