The Digital Archive Research Collective is a platform that aims to address the needs of students, faculty, and communities working on the creation of digital archives and exhibitions at the Graduate Center.
GC Digital Initiatives is excited to host the 10th annual Digital Humanities Initiative (DHI) Lightning Talks on Tuesday, November 19, 2024 from 5:30- 7:30 PM. The event will be hybrid, allowing presenters/audience members to join online over Zoom or in-person at the Graduate Center in rooms 9205/9206 (9F). Each year the event brings together digital humanities projects and scholars across the CUNY system, building a sense of community and awareness about the work taking place within our own network. This year, we are thrilled to have Andie Silva, Associate Professor of English (York College) and Digital Humanities (Graduate Center), give a keynote address titled, “The DH Syllabus as Archive: Digital Pedagogy, Feminist Citation, and Sustainability.”
Lightning Talks, brief 3-minute and 3-slide presentations, create opportunities for students, faculty, and others to present their digital projects, research, and initiatives and to receive feedback. It’s a wonderful way to get the word out about what you do to a wider CUNY community, and to hear about what your colleagues are doing across all 25 campuses.
Sign up to attend and/or to present your digital humanities project, research, or questions with students, faculty, and staff from across CUNY’s campuses.
