Caution: This email was sent from someone outside of the University of Lethbridge. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you know they are safe. Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Call for participation DHASA Conference 2021 https://dh2021.digitalhumanities.org.za/ Theme: “Digitally Human, Artificially Intelligent” Conference: 29 November 2021 - 3 December 2021 The Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa (DHASA) is organizing its third conference with the theme “Digitally Human, Artificially Intelligent”. The field of Digital Humanities is currently still rather underdeveloped in Southern Africa. Hence, this conference has several aims. First, to bring together researchers who are interested in showcasing their research from the broad field of Digital Humanities. By doing so, this conference provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art of Digital Humanities especially in the Southern Africa region. This includes Digital Humanities research by people from Southern Africa or research related to the geographical area of Southern Africa. Second, the conference allows for information sharing among researchers interested in Digital Humanities as well as network building. By bringing together researchers working on Digital Humanities from Southern Africa or on Southern Africa, we hope to boost collaboration and research in this field. Third, affiliated workshops and tutorials provide information for researchers to learn about novel technologies and tools. These related events are aimed at researchers interested in the field of Digital Humanities, to focus on specific aspects of Digital Humanities or to provide practical information for researchers to move into the field or advance their knowledge in the field. The DHASA conference is an interdisciplinary platform for researchers working on all areas of Digital Humanities (including, but not limited to language, literature, visual art, performance and theatre studies, media studies, music, history, sociology, psychology, language technologies, library studies, philosophy, methodologies, software and computation, etc.). It aims to create the conditions for the emergence of a scientific Digital Humanities community of practice. Given the current state of the Covid pandemic, the conference will be fully virtual. Programme The conference programme (including co-located events) can be found on the DHASA 2021 website: https://dh2021.digitalhumanities.org.za/schedule/ Co-located events The conference boasts several co-located events, including the 2nd RAIL workshop (https://bit.ly/3eBimo9), and a range of tutorials (e.g., CATMA, Glosario hackathon, WikimediaZA edit-a-thon, Digitalization and Visualization (A practical approach with TEI data), Text Mining for Newbies, Expanding the influence of DH throughout the humanities – Introducing Gale Digital Scholar Lab). Costs Participation at the conference and all co-located events is free, but DHASA membership (only ZAR250!) is required.

08 Nov '21

Caution: This email was sent from someone outside of the University of Lethbridge. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you know they are safe. Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Dear colleagues, The Global Digital Humanities Symposium Planning Committee is pleased to announce the Keynote Presenters for the 7th annual Symposium, scheduled for March 23-25, 2022. We are looking forward to their individual presentations as well as a discussion at the end of the Symposium among the three Keynote Presenters, bringing their work into conversation with each other. Keynote Presenters: * June Rubis, Sydney Environment Institute, University of Sydney * Olivia Quintanilla, University of California, Santa Barbara * Hanna Musiol, Norwegian University of Science and Technology This virtual event will take place synchronously over three days, with approximately four hours each day of programming. The Symposium is seeking participants to review proposals. The symposia of past years have been successful thanks to the generous contributions of our reviewers who have helped to shape engaging and wide-ranging scholarly programs, and the GO:DH community has been especially key in this respect. We’re hoping to expand our numbers this year, particularly with those who are readers of Spanish and French, and would love to have your participation. If you’re interested in reviewing, please fill out this brief form<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeSfUY9lzl357gIvhgCTINx42_Fo3obZIr…> by Monday, November 29th, 2021. As a reviewer, you would be assigned 4 to 6 proposals, each of which you’d be asked to evaluate in a short online form. We expect to send reviewers their assignments December 3rd, and will ask for completed reviews by January 4, 2022. As in past years, we run a double-anonymous review process, so you will review proposals without identifying information, and your identity will remain anonymous as well. Additionally, the Call for Proposals is still open and is available in English, French, and Spanish (links below), and proposals and presentations are welcome in any of these three languages. During the Symposium, we will support live interpretation of presentations in these languages. Live captions will also be provided for presentations given in English. Further details about multilingualism at the Symposium are available in the CFP. Deadline to apply: Wednesday, December 1, 2021, midnight in your timezone * Full CFP - English - https://msuglobaldh.org/call-for-proposals-english * Full CFP - Espagnol - https://msuglobaldh.org/call-for-proposals-espagnol * Full CFP - Français - https://msuglobaldh.org/call-for-proposals-francais This year we especially anticipate and welcome presentations on the following topics: * Digital humanities, the environment, and the climate crisis * Issues of healthcare and the digital humanities * Global DH during a global pandemic We are always interested to hear about the following topics: * Indigeneity – anywhere in the world – and the digital * Surveillance, censorship, and/or data privacy in a global context * Productive failure; failure as a part of DH praxis * Cultural heritage in a range of contexts, particularly non-Western * Open data, open access, and data preservation as resistance * How identity categories and their intersections, shape digital humanities work * Global digital pedagogies and emerging technologies * Equity and inclusion in digital access * Digital humanities, postcolonialism, and anti-colonialism * Borders, migration, and/or diaspora and their connection to the digital * Multilingualism and the digital * Global research dialogues and collaborations * Scholarly communication and knowledge production in a global context * Virtual worlds and digital storytelling Presentation formats: * 5-minute lightning talk (250-300 word proposal) * 15-minute presentation (250-300 word proposal) * 90-minute panel (100-word proposal describing the panel as a whole, plus 100-word description for each presentation within the panel) * 60-minute Workshop (250-300 word proposal) * Project showcase (250-300 word proposal) * There will be a session similar to a poster presentation fair, in which presenters will share their work with small groups or individuals. Rather than a set presentation length, this project showcase will enable one-on-one feedback and ask presenters to share about their work in a more conversational and extemporaneous way. Free registration for the Symposium will open in late January 2022. Find out more, including information about past Symposia at https://msuglobaldh.org. The Global Digital Humanities Symposium holds its community and participants to the following Code of Conduct<https://msuglobaldh.org/code-of-conduct>.

CFP for _Critical Infrastructure Studies & Digital Humanities_ in the Debates in DH series
by Urszula Pawlicka-Deger 25 Oct '21

25 Oct '21

Caution: This email was sent from someone outside of the University of Lethbridge. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you know they are safe. Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Dear all, We are pleased to invite proposals for contributions to the Critical Infrastructure Studies & Digital Humanities book we are editing for the Debates in the Digital Humanities Series<https://dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu> (University of Minnesota Press). (See our full, more detailed CFP<https://dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu/page/cfp-critical-infrastructure-studies-digi…>.) Critical Infrastructure Studies & Digital Humanities aims to direct the attention of digital humanists to the wider area of infrastructure studies, and deploy perspectives gained from that wider infrastructuralism to better understand the infrastructures of DH. It will bring infrastructural approaches front and center as an area where DH is uniquely equipped to lead the humanities in thought and practice, using its own infrastructural legacy as inspiration and mirror. The aim is to understand how infrastructure underpins and influences DH, and how DH in turn can influence infrastructure design, development, and maintenance. The volume will promote understanding of critical infrastructure studies as a field of writing and practice, and open dialogues between DH and cognate infrastructural fields. Please consider contributing a work for Critical Infrastructure Studies & Digital Humanities that might fit into one of the following three categories: 1. Critical Infrastructure Studies from the Perspective of DH: Argumentative essays (preferably in the range of 6,000 words) that explore issues and debates around historical or contemporary infrastructures, or infrastructuralism at large, but with attention to (or through the lens of) their digital platforms, technologies, data, media, and other features of interest to DH. 2. Digital Humanities from the Perspective of Critical Infrastructure Studies: Argumentative essays (preferably in the range of 6,000 words) that explore debates, histories, and theories of the infrastructures of DH itself, and of its institutions and practices, in ways that exceed a narrow disciplinary focus or a “this is my project” mode. Essays would ideally draw DH into wider vistas that will interest humanists in general or scholars in other fields. 3. (Re)Envisioning DH Infrastructure: Briefer textual or multimedia (e.g., digital arts, graphic novel, filmic, musical), interactive, data-modeled, documentary, creative, or other works that help envision or reenvision infrastructures and are represented by a critical statement. (Contributions for this category can include materials in digital form to be embedded or linked from the open-access, online version of the volume that will appear on the Manifold platform three months after the publication of the print book. But there must be a standalone critical statement for the print book.) To ensure that the volume includes diverse viewpoints, the editors encourage contributions from scholars, scholar-activists, practitioners, artists, designers, engineers, and others from different racial, ethnic, and indigenous backgrounds, from the LGBTQ community, from around the world, from different disciplines and kinds of institutions, and from those at all levels and stages in their profession. (Contributions must be in English, though translations in other languages provided by authors may be included in the post-print, open-access version of the volume.) A distinctive feature of Critical Infrastructure Studies & Digital Humanities is that each essay or other contribution will include a brief “infrastructure manifest” that declares the principal infrastructures underlying its creation—e.g., natural resources, unceded indigenous land, and major platforms, networks, tools, and institutional or other structures providing sources, storage, processing and workflow (including writing, visualizing, communicating, and collaborating), and labor and expertise—along with any key ethical considerations. Please see the full CFP and timeline on the Debates in the Digital Humanities Series website: https://dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu/page/cfp-critical-infrastructure-studies-digi… We invite proposals by December 15, 2021. Please submit 500-word abstracts and a short bio to ayliu(a)english.ucsb.edu<mailto:ayliu@english.ucsb.edu>, urszula.pawlicka-deger(a)kcl.ac.uk<mailto:urszula.pawlicka-deger@kcl.ac.uk>, and james.smithies(a)kcl.ac.uk<mailto:james.smithies@kcl.ac.uk>. (Please address all three editors.) If you have questions, please contact us at the email addresses above.
