As we increasingly rely on digital technologies for memory and
preservation, these tools can also help us to recover, redefine, and
reimagine the past, particularly through the exploration of lost and
marginalized voices and cultures. This seminar highlights digital projects
that draw attention to these forgotten and overlooked histories,
illuminating their importance and encouraging dialogue that has the ability
to shape how we understand their legacy and impact. Speakers will explore
projects that not only hold the power to alter our perception of the past,
but move us toward a digital future that is more inclusive and that honors
the lives and contributions of a multitude of diverse voices and stories.
Speakers will present short papers followed by a moderated conversation and
question and answer session.
