# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Visualising Presence and Absence in Scotland’s Web Archives
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 15 Nov, 2025 at 01:00 pm – Sat, 15 Nov, 2025 at 02:30 pm
- **Event Description**: WorkshopAbout this EventThis workshop explores “digital ghosts”—data that evolves, disappears, or behaves unpredictably. Led by artist Dorsey Kaufmann, whose work transforms Scottish web archive data into immersive visual experiences, we’ll examine how visual design can reveal patterns of digital disappearance and question how cultural memory is shaped by what is saved and what is lost.We’ll begin with an exhibition walk-through of interactive visualisations addressing absence and missing-ness in data, then create our own visual metaphors using cyanotype, light, and other tactile media to illuminate archival gaps.Designed for those working with non-linear or messy data, the session invites participants to bring questions and ideas for engaging with both presence and absence. Together, we’ll examine how archival choices shape what is remembered or forgotten, challenging the notion of data as whole or objective and reflecting on the narratives hidden in what’s lost or never captured.This event is partially funded by the National Library of Scotland and the British Academy.This event is part of the Being Human Festival, the UK’s national festival of the humanities, taking place 6 - 15 November 2025. Led by the School of Advanced Study, University of London, with generous support from Research England, in partnership with the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the British Academy.
