"Not only the mate­rial is increasing­ly digi­tal. The methods are digital, too. Linguists write soft­ware to analyze language automa­tically. Historians visua­lize the social net­works that con­nect histo­rical persons or places. Or they make cities of the past come to life again using digi­tal carto­graphy.
Litera­ry scho­lars digi­tize manus­cripts to examine the gene­tic pro­cess behind a text. Theatre scho­lars create vir­tual recon­structions of histo­rical play­houses.
The UA Digital Humani­ties Plat­form groups these kinds of research projects since 2010."

Resources: The Swiss Poster Collection

"The Swiss Poster Collection is a critical selection of posters dating from 1970 to 2011. It was established by Swiss graphic designer Ruedi Ruegg and Professor Daniel Boyarski in 1985 as a teaching collection. Ruegg selected the posters and added to the Collection each year. The Collection contains works by designers such as Bill, Bruhwiler, Kulling, Leupin, Muller-Brockmann, Pfund, Ruegg, Troxler, and Weingart. Swiss posters are created for a variety of purposes, and use form, color, image, and typography to communicate ideas. They are immediate in impact, spontaneous, and often playful or humorous. Analyze the interplay of type and image, form and content. Enjoy the visual and cultural sophistication. Donated by Ruedi Ruegg, Switzerland."
