Introduction

Øyvind Eide is a Professor in Digital Humanities at the University of Cologne. He holds a PhD in Digital Humanities from King's College London (2013). From 1995 to 2013 he worked in various positions at the University of Oslo in the fields of digital humanities and digital cultural heritage informatics. From 2013 to 2015 he was a Lecturer and research associate at the University of Passau. He was a former chair of the European Association for Digital Humanities (EADH) from 2016–2019 and is currently actively involved in several other international organisations, including ICOM's International Committee for Documentation (CIDOC).

Research

His research interests are focused on transformative digital intermedial studies. As a method he uses the critical spewise formalization as a method of conceptual modelling of cultural heritage information. This is used as a tool for critical engagement with media differences, especially between the relationships of texts, maps, and other media of communication. He is also engaged in the theoretical studies of modelling in the humanities as well as beyond.
