What Lies Beneath: Tales from the UCL Multi-modal Digitisation Suite - Dr Kathryn E. Piquette

In this presentation, Kathryn will discuss some of the work she is doing in the UCL Multi-Modal Digitisation Suite -- a shared facility for teaching and research in digitisation technologies. She will focus on the advanced imaging techniques of Multispectral Imaging and Reflectance Transformation Imaging and share some of the particularly interesting results emerging from her research and selected projects with UCL Advanced Imaging consultants (UCLAiC). She will showcase the ways in which advanced digital imaging can shed light on the life histories of ancient documentary evidence and the materiality of text and image. Kathryn will also highlight how her research and consulting inform her teaching in the areas of digitisation and digital heritage management.
