He introduces a method for machine-reading archival aerial photographs to study environmental and climate change of the 1940s to 1990s. Eight case studies from three continents serve to produce training data sets for machine learning. The talk also shows how oral history, the oldest form of history, and computational history using AI depend on each other.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/berlin/events/global-history-colloquium-emmanuel-kreike-princeton-universi-14859/", "official_url": "https://www.geschkult.fu-berlin.de/e/fmi/bereiche/global_history/Dates/Colloquium-Global-History_WiSe26-27_03-Emmanuel-Kreike.html", "image": "", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-09T18:00:00+01:00", "end": "2026-11-09T20:00:00+01:00", "place": "FB Geschichts- und Kulturwissenschaften", "address": "Koserstraße 20, 14195 Berlin", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "L’Arbre de l’Authenticité", "start": "2026-11-10T20:00:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "fsk - Kino am Oranienplatz", "address": "Segitzdamm 2, 10969 Berlin", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "tickets_url": "", "category": "film", "tags": ["film/documentary", "history/colonialism", "nature/climate"], "description": "A film about Yangambi, a biological research station from the Belgian colonial era, where scientific records about the nature of the Congo Basin are found.
