  1. Hermeneia

    The research group Hermeneia was created during the years 1999-2000. In 2001 Hermeneia received public recognition and its first funding from the Generalitat de Catalunya which in 2009 would recognize Hermeneia as a consolidated research group. Hermeneia is composed of 23 researchers from European and American universities: Universitat de Barcelona, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Universidad de Granada, American University (Madrid), Universté d'Artois (France), University of Essex (U.K),Università degli studi di Bari,Universtiy of Jyväskylä (Finland), Brown University (USA), United States Naval Academy, University of Miami, Universidad Pontificia Javeriana (Colombia) y Faculdade Paulista de Artes (Brazil). One of the most outstanding qualities of this international research group is its ability to establish a rich dialogue with different perspectives on digital literature as a revolutionary and changing phenomenon. Since its inception, Hermeneia has embraced the participation of international researchers in a project that requires the exchange of ideas and dialogue among researchers from different academic fields and with an international perspective.

  2. compArt daDA: the database Digital Art

    The compArt database Digital Art (daDA) is a growing repository on digital art. It currently focusses on five top categories: people (in their roles as artists, authors, gallerists, etc.), works, events, publications, and institutions. We use the slightly problematic term “digital art” in a broad sense. More or less like: in order to be included, an entity of the data base must have its roots in operations by digital computers; or reflect on such entities, or be otherwise related to them. But we allow for some sloppiness: we also insert entities of historic relevance to digital art. We are currently restricting attention to the early phase of digital art. As those we consider the years from about 1950 to 1979, the year of the first Festival Ars Electronica in Linz, Austria. During those years, digital art was mainly algorithmic art. At some later time, we intend to include other forms of digital art. We already now occasionally accept works, artists, etc. that bear enough of a stylistic kinship with early digital art. We almost exclusively deal with visual art. But here also, we allow for exceptions as, e.g., some entries from early computer music.
