Dr. Margriet Hoogvliet is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Groningen's Faculty of Arts, Research Centre for Historical Studies, specializing in medieval and early modern European history. Her primary affiliation is with the 'Cities of Readers' project (2015-2019) and the HERA-funded 'Public Renaissance' project (2019-2022), where she served as project manager for digital heritage initiatives including the 'Hidden Deventer' app and 'Broeders 3D' VR reconstruction. She maintains fractional appointments across multiple institutions including Utrecht University and the Centre d'Études Supérieures de la Renaissance in Tours. Her research interests span the social history of reading in late medieval and early modern Europe, with particular focus on religious literature in Romance languages, urban history, and spatial humanities. She investigates how religious knowledge circulated through domestic spaces and urban environments, examining manuscript cultures, multilingual communities, and the material contexts of reading practices. Her work bridges traditional textual analysis with digital methodologies, creating innovative approaches to historical spatial analysis. Hoogvliet's publication portfolio reveals strong thematic continuity in religious reading practices across urban contexts, with increasing integration of digital humanities methods since 2019. Her recent work demonstrates expertise in combining manuscript studies with spatial analysis, particularly through VR reconstructions and mobile applications that make historical research accessible to broader audiences. This trajectory reflects a scholarly commitment to both rigorous academic research and public engagement. Award highlights include: NWO funding for PhD research (1992) Cum laude doctoral thesis (1999) Smart Loire Valley Fellowship (Marie Curie, 2019-2020) €10,000 prize for public outreach activities (2021) NWO Free Competition grant for 'Cities of Readers' (2014) Her research has been supported by numerous competitive grants including NWO, COST Actions, and European Science Foundation funding. While she has supervised student projects (notably a palaeographical/codicological project at Leeds University), her primary role has been as researcher rather than primary thesis advisor. Current initiatives focus on digital reconstructions of historical spaces and mobile applications for public history engagement. Hoogvliet actively collaborates with international research teams through projects like 'New Communities of Interpretation' and 'Public Renaissance,' working with scholars across Europe to develop innovative approaches to historical spatial analysis. Her 'Hidden Cities' platform and 'Broeders 3D' VR reconstruction represent significant contributions to digital heritage preservation and public history engagement.

Mike Richison serves as an Associate Professor and Departmental Advising Coordinator in the Department of Art and Design at Monmouth University, where he teaches motion graphics, history of graphic design, and typography while guiding students through academic planning and senior thesis projects. He holds an MFA in Painting from Cranbrook Academy of Art, which informs his interdisciplinary approach to artistic creation and instruction. Richison's practice as a multimedia artist critically engages with consumer culture and technological obsolescence through repurposed materials—both physical (discarded plastics, appliances) and digital (TV commercials, social media content). His signature projects like Electo Electro (voting booth video remix installation), Spin Stack (turntable-based sound/projection system), and Augmented Asbury Park (geolocated AR boardwalk tour) blend custom electronics, audience participation, and political commentary. These works manifest across sculpture, video, printmaking, and interactive software, often utilizing Max/MSP/Jitter programming environments to transform found media into rhythmic, participatory experiences that deconstruct language and consumer narratives. As Departmental Advising Coordinator, Richison mentors students in capstone projects including Senior Year Experience: Client/Thesis courses. His exhibited works have been featured at FRG Objects and Design/Art (2017), Spectre Arts (2017), and Coburn Gallery (2017), with coverage in CDM.link and The Creators Project. Community engagement remains central to his practice through guided tours for Augmented Asbury Park and presentations at TEDxNavesink and MakerFaire NYC.
