The ITST program will provide funding for researchers and their graduate students to develop expertise in applying digital multimedia technologies to their research through summer institutes, workshops and conferences.
The overall objectives of the ITST program are to: reflect on, interpret, and analyze new digital media, multimedia, and text-based computing technologies and integrate these into humanities and social sciences research; bring together theorists, experimentalists, and technologists from different disciplines, to share and nurture ideas and methods that challenge research to advance through the use of audio-visual and text-based technologies; facilitate the creation of national and international networks of, and partnerships among, researchers, industries, governments, and individuals that will promote and sustain social sciences and humanities research and resources worldwide. Please note that the following are not eligible for support under this program: digitization of collections of images, books, or sounds; support for routine computer applications from which little new knowledge about image, text, and sound technology will emerge; creation of stand-alone major research tools; research activities, already funded under other SSHRC programs, that do not need transformative multimedia and new media technologies; development of technological infrastructure.
