En un escenario científico global donde las soluciones digitales han
suscitado las más variadas reflexiones sobre sus implicaciones humanas en
términos políticos, educativos, culturales y sociotécnicos, las Humanidades
Digitales han sido foco de variados intereses entre investigadores del
ámbito de las Ciencias Sociales, la Literatura y la Lingüística, las Artes,
las Ciencias de la Educación, las Ciencias de la Información, y las
Ciencias de la Computación e Informática. Sus nuevos métodos, junto con las
ya tradicionales aproximaciones de las Humanidades, suscitan nuevos objetos
de investigación, epistemologías y resultados, atravesados por los recursos
digitales.
De esta manera, las Humanidades Digitales apuntan, por un lado, a un
conjunto de posibilidades de producción y divulgación científica de nuevos
"contornos" y también a una serie de indagaciones donde las "formas"
mediadas por la retórica de lo digital ganan lugar entre los humanistas.
En el horizonte académico del Sur tales cuestiones son aún más punzantes.
En medio de la asimetría de recursos, competencias y oportunidades, el Sur
ofrece una riqueza de temas y desafíos muchas veces inexistentes en el
ámbito de las Humanidades Digitales del Norte.
Este dossier propone la construcción de "puentes" y de lugares de encuentro
entre teoría y práctica, teniendo como referencia las Humanidades Digitales
desarrolladas en el Sur.
Algunos ejes temáticos:
1. Geopolítica de las Humanidades Digitales: lo global, lo local;
2. Contexto sociotécnico, político y cultural de la producción del
conocimiento a través de las Humanidades Digitales;
3. Maneras de leer y escribir en la era digital: del registro y la
recuperación al borrado de la información en internet;
4. Ciencia abierta como política y práctica de las Humanidades
Digitales: recursos y herramientas;
5. Metodologías digitales: entre nuevas epistemologías y nuevos
problemas para el campo;
6. Edición digital académica, anotación semántica,
geolocalización. Crowdsourcing
de textos, imágenes, audios;
7. Archivo y Documentación: escaneado, memoria, preservación;
8. Bibliotecas, Labs, Fablabs: espacios de ciudadanía y democratización
del conocimiento;
9. De lo lúdico a la ciencia: arte digital, arquitectura, música, cine,
teatro, juegos digitales y nuevos medios;
10. Innovación y transformación digital en la academia:
comunicación científica, visibilidad, y formas de apertura;
11. Fake news, post-verdad y Humanidades Digitales:
relaciones posibles;
12. Cultura, Diversidad, Educación, Feminismo y sus
mediaciones con las tecnologías digitales.
Coordinado por los profesores Ricardo M. Pimenta (IBICT) y Gimena del Rio
Riande (IIBICRIT, CONICET).
Además del dossier, Liinc en Revista está abierta a la presentación de
artículos y reseñas sobre otros temas en su ámbito de reflexión, de acuerdo
con sus normas editoriales.

*CHAMADA DE ARTIGOS*
*HUMANIDADES DIGITAIS: OLHARES DO SUL*
A Liinc em Revista convida a todos os interessados a submeterem artigos
para seu dossiê “Humanidades Digitais: olhares do Sul, organizado pelos
profs. Ricardo Pimenta (IBICT) e Gimena del Rio Riande (IIBICRIT, CONICET),
conforme temário a seguir, para publicação no número 1, volume 15, de maio
de 2019. Aceitam-se artigos originais em português, espanhol e inglês.
Em meio a um cenário científico global onde as soluções digitais têm
suscitado mais e mais reflexão sobre suas implicações humanas em termos
políticos, educativos, culturais e sociotécnicos, as ditas Humanidades
Digitais têm continuamente sido foco de interesse diverso entre
pesquisadores do âmbito das Ciências Sociais, da literatura e da
linguística, das Artes, da Educação e das ciências da Informação e da
Computação. Seus novos métodos aplicados às já estabelecidas abordagens das
Humanidades suscitam novos objetos de pesquisa, epistemologias e produtos,
ambos atravessados pelos recursos digitais.
Dessa maneira, as Humanidades Digitais apontam duplamente para um conjunto
de possibilidades de produção e divulgação científica de novos “contornos”
e para um cenário de indagações sobre porque e para que as “formas”
mediadas pela retórica do digital ganham maior evidência entre acadêmicos
das humanidades.
No horizonte acadêmico do Sul tais questões são ainda mais pungentes. Em
meio à assimetria de recursos, competências e oportunidades de
interlocução, o Sul oferta uma riqueza de temas e desafios, muitas vezes
inexistentes no âmbito das Humanidades Digitais do Norte.
Este dossiê propõe a construção de “pontes” e de lugares de encontro entre
teoria e prática, tendo como foco as Humanidades Digitais desenvolvidas no
âmbito do Sul ou tendo-o como referência.
Alguns eixos temáticos:
1. Geopolítica das Humanidades Digitais: o global, o local;
2. Contexto sociotécnico, político e cultural da produção do
conhecimento por meio das Humanidades Digitais;
3. Formas de ler e escrever na era digital: do registro e da
recuperação ao apagamento da informação na internet;
4. Ciência aberta enquanto política e prática das Humanidades Digitais:
recursos e ferramentas;
5. Metodologias digitais: entre novas epistemologias e novos problemas
para o campo;
6. Edição digital, anotação semântica, geolocalização. Crowdsourcing de
texto, imagens, áudios;
7. Arquivo e Documentação: digitalização, memória, preservação;
8. Bibliotecas, Labs, Fablabs: espaços de cidadania e democratização do
conhecimento;
9. Do lúdico à ciência: arte digital, arquitetura, música, cinema,
teatro, jogos digitais e novas mídias;
10. Inovação e transformação digital na academia: comunicação
científica, visibilidades, e formas de abertura;
11. Notícias falsas, pós-verdade e humanidades digitais:
interligações possíveis;
12. Cultura, Diversidade, Educação, Feminismo e suas
mediações com as tecnologias digitais.
Organizado pelos professores Ricardo M. Pimenta (IBICT) e Gimena del Rio
Riande (IIBICRIT, CONICET).
Além do dossiê, a Liinc em Revista está aberta à submissão de artigos e
resenhas sobre outros temas em seu escopo de reflexão, de acordo com suas
normas editoriais.

*CALL FOR PAPERS*
*DIGITAL HUMANITIES: VIEWS FROM THE SOUTH*
Liinc Journal invites scholars to submit articles for their dossier
"Digital Humanities: views from the South", organized by profs. Ricardo
Pimenta (Ibict) and Gimena del Rio Riande (IIBICRIT, CONICET), for
publication in issue 1, volume 15, at May 2019. Original articles are
accepted in Portuguese, Spanish and English.
In a global scientific scenario where digital solutions have elicited the
most varied reflections about their human implications in political,
educational, cultural and sociotechnical terms, the Digital Humanities has
been the focus of varied interests among researchers from the field of
Social Sciences, Literature and Linguistics, Arts, Education, Information
and Computer Sciences. Its new methods, altogether with the traditional
Humanities approaches, have given rise to new research objects,
epistemologies and results, built with digital resources.
Thus, the Digital Humanities, on the one hand, set possibilities for
scientific production and dissemination and also a series of inquiries
where the mediations of the digital rhetorics gain place among humanists.
In the academic horizon of the South such issues are even more poignant. In
a context defined by asymmetry of resources, competencies and
opportunities, the South offers issues and challenges that are often
nonexistent in the Digital Humanities from the North.
This dossier proposes the construction of "bridges" and meeting points
between theory and practice, taking as reference the Digital Humanities
developed in the South.
Some topics:
1. Geopolitics of the Digital Humanities: the global, the local;
2. Sociotechnical, political and cultural context of knowledge
production through the Digital Humanities;
3. Reading and writing in the digital age: from information register
and recovery to deletion on the internet;
4. Open science as Digital Humanities policy and practice: resources
and tools;
5. Digital methodologies: new epistemologies and new problems in the
field;
6. Scholarly digital edition, semantic annotation, geolocation.
Crowdsourcing of texts, images, audios;
7. File and Documentation: scanning, memory, preservation;
8. Libraries, Labs, Fablabs: spaces for citizenship and knowledge
democratization;
9. From ludic to science: digital art, architecture, music, cinema,
theater, digital games and new media;
10. Innovation and digital transformation in academia:
scholarly communication, visibility, and openness;
11. Fake news, post-truth and Digital Humanities: possible
relationships;
12. Culture, Diversity, Education, Feminism and digital
technologies mediations.
Coordinated by Ricardo M. Pimenta (IBICT) and Gimena del Rio Riande
(IIBICRIT, CONICET).
Besides the dossier, Liinc in Revista is open to submission of articles and
reviews on other subjects in its scope of reflection, according to its
editorial standards.
Information on the rules of article submission are in:

HI all,
I wanted to let you all know the status of the executive committee. I have sent several emails to the executive members who are rotating off and the current members requesting help in running elections. I’ve heard a response from one current person and one former. The former folks are off and have no responsibility. There doesn’t seem to be interest from the executive committee as currently formed to move forward with voting.
I do not think that the organization can move ahead with only one or two people willing to work for it. At this point I am not sure of how to proceed, but I wanted to let the membership know that I have tried to constitute an ec (currently there is no chair, so no one is really in charge), but there is not enough response to move ahead.

Dear all,
I am not sure what the fate of this email list will be, not sure if we are
supposed to still use it or if anyone is still receiving messages.
Can I ask if there is or if there is a plan for a new email list moderator,
or is it just being phased out? Last chance we checked there were 500+
members; it seems like a unique resource and a shame to just let it die.
Anyway:
In other lists I am a member of Jon Tennant has shared the first formally
published version of the Open Scholarship Strategy:
https://zenodo.org/record/1323437#.W17HXNL7RPY
"The purpose of this document is to provide a concise analysis of where the
global Open Scholarship movement currently stands: what the common threads
and strengths are, where the greatest opportunities and challenges lie, and
how we can more effectively work together as a global community to
recognise the
top strategic priorities."
As Jon notes,
"The main document is available in a range of formats: markdown, R
markdown, Epub, iPython notebook, open document text, PDF, rich-text
format, LaTeX, plain text, xml, and html. Comments and contributions to the
next version are welcome through THIS MARKDOWN FILE
<https://github.com/Open-Scholarship-Strategy/site/blob/master/index.Rmd>,
or if you are uncomfortable with traditional Git-based workflows, through
the issue tracker HERE
<https://github.com/Open-Scholarship-Strategy/site/issues>.
In addition to the above, the pilot module for the Open Science MOOC
<https://github.com/OpenScienceMOOC/Module-5-Open-Research-Software-and-Open…>,
Open Source and Open Research Software, is now open for community feedback.
We would welcome comments and criticisms
<https://github.com/OpenScienceMOOC/Module-5-Open-Research-Software-and-Open…>
from anyone interested, and all realms of scholarly communication!"
As this is part of the domain of the digital humanities, affecting most
crucially colleages from the Global South, I thought I'd share here.
Hoping you are all well,
Ernesto
