Digital Humanities Initiative

The CUNY Digital Humanities Initiative (CUNY DHI), launched in Fall 2010, aims to build connections and community among those at CUNY who are applying digital technologies to scholarship and pedagogy in the humanities. All are welcome: faculty, students, and technologists, experienced practitioners and beginning DHers, enthusiasts and skeptics.

We meet regularly on- and offline to explore key topics in the Digital Humanities, and share our work, questions, and concerns. See our blog for more information on upcoming events (it’s also where we present our group’s work to a wider audience). Help edit the CUNY Digital Humanities Resource Guide, our first group project. And, of course, join the conversation on the Forum.

CFP for Keystone DH Conference (proposals due Mon. January 12)

  • Hi All,

    Please see the CFP below and please note that the Association for Computers and the Humanities is helping defray expenses for ten graduate student presenters

    FINAL CFP: Proposals due MONDAY, JANUARY 12

    http://sceti.library.upenn.edu/Keystonedh/

    The Keystone Digital Humanities conference will be held in the Kislak Center for Special Collections, Rare Books and Manuscripts at the University of Pennsylvania Libraries, July 22-24, 2015. Dr. Miriam Posner, Coordinator and Core Faculty of the Digital Humanities Program at UCLA, will be presenting the keynote lecture, “What’s Next?: The Radical, Unrealized Potential of Digital Humanities.”

    Proposals are now invited for long presentations (20 minutes), short presentations (7 minutes), and project showcases (10 minutes) in all areas of digital humanities.

    Presentations may take the form of interactive presentations, short papers, project demos, panel discussions, or workshops. We welcome proposals from emerging and veteran students, teachers, and scholars.

    The community will be invited to vote on proposals that they would like to see included in the program. The 10 proposals with the highest scores are guaranteed a slot at the conference. The Program Committee will curate the remainder of the program in an effort to ensure diversity in program content and presenters. Community votes will, of course, still weigh heavily in these decisions.

    Please send your name, email address, and a proposal of 200-300 words to keystonedh.conference@gmail.com. The proposal deadline is January 12, 2015, and community peer review will run from January 15-February 15. Proposers will be notified by March 1.

    The Association for Computers and the Humanities (http://ach.org/) is covering registration for ten graduate students to present at the conference.
