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.

    Call for Papers: 2023 Greater Boston Digital Research & Pedagogy Symposium

    We’ve extended the deadline to *February 17*.

    The Programs in Digital Humanities at MIT invite submissions for
    participation in a one-day symposium of Boston-area scholars, teachers,
    researchers, librarians, and all combinations thereof engaged with using or
    teaching digital methods in humanities and social sciences research on
    Friday, April 28, 2023.
    Background & Purpose

    This symposium was meant to happen in the spring of 2020 in order to build
    on connections and ideas exchanged at the Boston Digital Scholarship
    Symposium (https://harvard-dssg.github.io/boston-area-dss/) that took place
    at Harvard in 2019. It’s now three years later, and we think that community
    is needed all the more. We’re imagining an event that has us begin and end
    the day together as a group, but in between will break out into smaller
    sessions that allow for conversation and more hands-on engagement.
    Topics

    We seek proposals related, but not limited, to the following:

    – Works-in-progress (starting from the very beginning stages of planning
    a project)
    – Projects focused on Boston
    – “Where are we now?” / digital scholarship since the pandemic (from
    projects, programs, recent grads)
    – Professional development pathways (preparing students, credentialing,
    career trajectories, etc.
    – Organizational development (funding/sustaining projects, running
    digital humanities programs, etc.)
    – Realtime hands-on work (product demos, a participatory project open to
    all attendees, etc.)

    Format

    We expect the symposium to run in 90 minute blocks. We seek proposals for
    completed sessions (90 minutes), individual interventions (15-20 minutes),
    and posters (asynchronous). Formats might include panels, talks, workshop
    sessions, and we are open to proposals of other formats that fit the given
    time slots. Posters can take any presentable format – a traditional poster,
    slides, a video, or a web project or prototype.

    Sessions will occur in person on MIT’s campus.
    Proposal Submission

    *Proposals are due by February 17, 2023.*

    *Submit your proposal here.*

    If you are proposing a poster or an individual intervention, please submit
    a max 250-word proposal and a one-page CV/resume.

    If you are proposing a completed panel, please submit one 500-word panel
    proposal that includes description of the individual interventions and
    compile all the participants’ one-page CVs/resumes.
