There is a particularly compelling data hackathon this weekend. It is the data on heating complaints in NYC. As you know. may unscrupulous landlords illegally and immorally withhold heat in the winter to force rent stabilized and rent controlled tenants out of their homes. Let’s use data nail them this Saturday.

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.
