interdisciplinary center and work closely with faculty across campus as
well as academic technology services to experiment with new approaches and
tools toward content creation and presentation.

Bard’s Experimental Humanities initiative is Bard’s liberal arts-based
answer to the Digital Humanities. It emphasizes both “new” media
technologies and the reconsideration of “old” media in the study of what it
means to be human, as well as the role of experimentation in humanistic
scholarship, learning, and the arts. *How does technology mediate what it
means to be human? *is a central line of inquiry within our department and
we welcome applications from those who will help us move toward new ideas.

The position requires expertise in web design & development, strong
interpersonal skills, both flexibility and a self-driven work ethic,
appreciation for the arts and humanities, and a passion for learning new
things. Experience with tools to support digital methodologies (e.g.,
archiving, new media studies, software studies, interactive mapping) and/or
interest to learn will be beneficial for this position. Depending on the
candidate’s educational background and interests, the person in this
position may have the opportunity to take on some teaching, mentorship
and/or training roles with Experimental Humanities faculty, staff, and
students. We especially welcome candidates that are interested in linking
emerging technologies with social implications relating to gender, race,
class, sexual orientation and other categories and/or intersections of
identity. This position also acts as a liaison with the Experimental
Humanities Collaborative Network’s (https://ehcn.bard.edu/) developer to
facilitate international collaboration and integration at Annandale as
needed.

practices;
