About this listen
Miles Osgood talks to Marcus Bingenheimer about why new tools in the Digital Humanities demand new genres of scholarship, what network analysis reveals about the transmission of religious ideas in medieval China, and how AI’s large language models will help arcane texts reach a new global readership.
Marcus Bingenheimer is Associate Professor in the Department of Religion at Temple University in Philadelphia. He taught Buddhism and Digital Humanities in Taiwan at Dharma Drum (2005 to 2011) and held visiting positions and fellowships at universities in Korea, Japan, Thailand, Singapore, and France. Since 2001 he has supervised various projects concerning the digitization of Buddhist culture. His main research interests are the history and historiography of Buddhism, early sūtra literature, and how to apply computational approaches to research in the Humanities. He has published some sixty peer-reviewed articles and a handful of books.
