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.

    MobilityShifts: An International Future of Learning Summit
    The New School in NYC
    October 10-16, 2011

    The New School presents the second event in its Politics of Digital
    Culture conference series “MobilityShifts: An International Future of
    Learning Summit.” Comprised of a conference, hands-on workshops,
    project demonstrations, exhibitions and a theater performance featuring youth
    and educators from New York City and Chicago, MobilityShifts is a
    week-long summit in October 2011. MobilityShifts makes unexpected
    international connections between the theories of Jacques Rancière and
    Ivan Illich, learning projects outside the bounds of schools and
    universities, mobile platforms, and the Open Web. Stop, reflect,
    listen, discuss, and build with artists, media scholars, policy makers,
    students, technologists, teachers, librarians, legal scholars and
    learning activists from 21 countries.
