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.

    Alex Gil started the topic “How to Kill Facebook”: Eben Moglen on Privacy
    and Social Networks in the forum NYCDH Announcements

    “When: March 31, 2015 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
    Where: Studio@Butler, Butler Library 208b, Columbia University

    Universities were the freest places in human society to compute–and
    therefore to read, communicate and learn–from the beginning of computing
    until yesterday. They are no longer. Mostly, you did it to yourselves. Some
    of it is being done to you. In this post-Snowden talk, Eben Moglen, founder
    of the Software Freedom Law Center and Professor at Columbia Law School,
    will discuss what has happened, why you should not want to live this way
    one millisecond longer, and how you can begin to reclaim your technological
    freedom in order to safeguard your political liberty.

    This event is free and open to the public. If coming from outside the
    university let Alex Gil know at agil@columbia.edu.
