This month we are launching the project “landing page”, designed to help people quickly understand the aims of the project, to sign up for project updates, and to offer input if they wish to. It is primarily aimed at researchers of modern Chinese History (or British in China history) as key stakeholders in the Visualising China demonstrator tool we are building.
We are hosting a workshop in Bristol on 7th September to find out more about researcher needs and workflows in this area, and to show and discuss the latest version of the tool. This is co-located with the 2010 Conference of the British Association for Chinese Studies, also being held here in Bristol from the 8th September, so we hope to attract some valuable participants in order to inform further development of our software.
