on November 20*
The opening session of the seminar "Digital Writing and Editorialisation"
will take place on *Thursday, Nov. 20 **at Noon** in the CITÉ (Roger-Gaudry

*‟Between Blog and Scholarly Periodical: Hybridization of Research
Practices”*
*By multiplying the forms of reading and writing in the secular society,
the digital has pushed forward the emergence of new practices combining
communication, collection, archival, literature, etc. In a context where
forms of writing tend to become more fluid, the research practices of
researchers have also become more diversified, borrowing to forms of
content production that where absent until then in the research
methodologies.*
*This hybridization of practices that has become more visible recently
seems to open the way for new forms of knowledge production among
researchers and their communities, greatly modifying the conventional
process leading to the recognition and validation of knowledge.*
*Guest presentators are*:
-
*Benoît Melançon*

*Joëlle Le Marec*

*Celya Gruson-Daniel*

REMINDER! THE HASTAC CONFERENCE DEADLINE TOMORROW, OCT 31!
If you want to create a panel/workshop on any topic but need other participants, feel free to post a blog on HASTAC with the call in the headline, and we’ll make sure to tweet it out. Or post your call on Twitter as #HASTAC2015.
There will be student housing available on the campus for very affordable rates - something like $40 a night, I believe (details on their site below.) The hotels start at $120 a night too, so there will be some affordable housing for everyone.
We’d LOVE to have a panel from GO::DH on the specific questions and projects organized by folks here. Why not put together a panel?
Please email hastac2015(a)gmail.com<mailto:hastac2015@gmail.com> if you have any questions. You can cc me but please contact them directly as well.
all the best,

* identities

CSDH/SCHN Outstanding Achievement Award for Computing in the Arts and
Humanities*
The CSDH/SDCH Award for Outstanding Achievement, Computing in the Arts
and Humanities acknowledges a Canadian researcher or a researcher at a
Canadian institution who has made a significant contribution, over an
extended career, to computing in the arts and humanities, whether
theoretical, applied, or in the area of community building. The
recipient will be invited to accept the award and to address the society
in a plenary session of the annual conference at Congress, which will be
held in Ottawa in the spring of 2015.
This award is generally given to someone who has made a substantial and
prolonged contribution to the community, typically a senior researcher.
We have awarded it to teams. We have awarded it posthumously in
recognition of a lifetime contribution. We also recognize people who
have served the community in a service capacity and therefore may not
have a faculty position. For a list of previous recipients, see
http://csdh-schn.org/activities-activites/outstanding-awards-prix/
Nominations of up to 500 words must be submitted by October 31, 2014.
Only current current members of CSDH/SCHN are eligible to submit
nominations. Nominations must be sent by email to the chair of the
CSDH/SCHN Awards Committee (dean.irvine(a)dal.ca <mailto:dean.irvine@dal.ca>).
The Awards committee will compile a short list, confirm with nominees
whether they are willing to be considered, and request the submission of
supporting material (CV, letters of support, access to contributions or
projects if not readily accessible) by December 15, 2014. Adjudication
of the award will be conducted by the CSDH/SDCH Awards Committee (Dean
Irvine, Susan Brown, Juan Luis Suarez, Kevin Kee, and Janelle Jenstad),
who may consult the CSDH/SCHN Executive or external members of the
community for assistance in evaluating applications. Selection will be
made by the end of December 2014. An announcement will be made in spring
2014, along with the release of the CSDH/SCHN conference program for
Congress 2015.
