CUNY Digital Humanities Initiative (DHI) and GC Digital Initiatives (GCDI) invite you to participate in the 3rd annual DHI Lightning Talks event: “Building a Digital Humanities Community at the City University of New York”. This event will take place on Tuesday, November 14th, 2017 from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm in rooms 9206-9207 at the Graduate Center, CUNY.

Groups or individuals interested in sharing their work-in-progress are invited to sign up to give 3-5 minute presentations (with a maximum of 3 slides) using this form.

We will be accepting on-the-go Lightning Talks during the event, so individual students, faculty, staff or groups from all disciplines are invited to join us and share their ongoing, current, and recent work, and to get a glimpse of the wide variety of digital projects that can be found across The City University of New York. We welcome first-time presenters, as well as those who have participated in past CUNY DHI Lightning Talks.

Please share this call widely with friends and colleagues, so we can make this the most widely attended CUNY Digital Humanities Initiative event thus far.

We are looking forward to seeing new and emerging work from students and scholars across CUNY, as well as catching up on the growth and development of past projects.

For specific questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at lrhody@gc.cuny.edu orjoteropena@gradcenter.cuny.edu.
