Digital Humanities is the discipline born from the intersection between humanities scholarship and computing technologies. It explores ways in which digital tools and methodologies can be used to develop new intellectual perspectives and insights across the whole range of Humanities disciplines, such as History, Literature, Languages, Art History, Music, Cultural Studies and beyond.
While Digital Humanities draws on a wide range of critical and cultural theory from the Humanities, it also has a very strong practical component in that a major focus is the creation of new digital resources for research (such as online editions, web-based archives and digital tools for scholarship).
The DeparTmenT The Department of Digital Humanities (DDH) is part of the School of Arts & Humanities at King's College London. Located in central London, in the heart of the West End, DDH offers access to unrivalled expertise in creation, management and preservation of digital assets. It is the oldest and largest centre of Digital Humanities in the world and has an outstanding record of research, collaborating with international partners at renowned universities, museums, archives and libraries across the full breadth of Humanities subject domains.

Colour
Colour affects moods and creates an emotional response based onour instinctive associations. Such is the power of colour that it oftenhas different meanings in different cultures.
Our core colour is red. The historic red of Wales is an emotionally intense colour associated with warmth, energy and vitality. Withinthe family group, each museum has a special vibrant colour of itsown that makes it distinctive and identifiable.
