Dear all,
Below a proposal for a GO::DH session at the DH 2013. Ideas? Suggestions? Comments? The application deadline is Thursday so there is not much time left but there is still time for changes.

============================= ADHO GO:DH Session on “Chinese DH”
The newly founded ADHO initiative Global Outreach (GO::DH) aims to facilitate communication between the various ADHO committees and emergent DH groups and activities in countries which are not yet well represented within ADHO. This session proposal is one of GO::DH attempts to raise the visibility of underrepresented communities, in this case, of work done in the Chinese speaking world.
Like all cultures, China is faced with the question of how to model its cultural heritage in a digital environment. Comparable only to India in historic range, geographic size, and population, there are various initiatives in China, Hongkong and Taiwan that work on solutions to digitize and distribute their shared cultural heritage. After successful international cooperation yielded the Unicode standard, which resolved the pressing issue of how to represent the logographic writing system in computing, continued dialog on standards and practices in DH is of mutual interest for both ADHO members and the emerging DH centers in China, Hongkong and Taiwan. In East Asia, efforts by Japanese practitioners of DH has already resulted in the foundation of the Japanese Association of Digital Humanities, which joined ADHO last year, an important development in the globalization of the field. In the Chinese speaking world too there is great potential for dialog, synergy and cooperation between DH centers to discuss standards and practices. Communication about shared standards generally improves the chances that the results are interchangeable, avoids duplication of efforts, and increases efficiency.
As internationalization and support for developing, regional centers is part of ADHO’s mission, the members of the GO::DH feel it is desirable to organize a roundtable on “Chinese DH” with representatives from China, Taiwan, Hongkong and perhaps Singapore to speak about the situation of DH in their societies and the prospects and potential problems for further collaboration with both within East Asia as well as with ADHO members.
Following a discussion on the globaloutlookdh list regarding the possible format for such a roundtable, Neil Fraistat, the current Chair of ADHO, offered to split the ADHO business meeting and use the second 45 min section to a ADHO GO::DH roundtable on “Chinese DH”.
We plan to invite at least one representative from China, Hongkong and Taiwan to speak for 10 min to provide the audience with a quick overview of activities, followed by a 15 min roundtable discussion with the speakers and one or two GO::DH members. Possible questions to explore: What are the prospects for further national or regional organization in East Asia? How can we make better use of existing structures to further the globalization of Chinese DH? How viable, e.g., would be a panel in Chinese at the next DH?
ADHO GO::DH Session (45 min)
1. DH in China (10min) 2. DH in Hongkong (10min) 3. DH in Taiwan (10min) 4. Roundtable (15min) ==================================
Dear Marcus,
Just to be clear: I am happy to propose to the ADHO SC that we split the business meeting in order to run such a session and am hopeful that they will agree, but it would have to be voted on by the SC first. So it would be a mistake to take this as a given until the SC has agreed.
Best, Neil

Dear all,
Neil, from Marcus' message I gather he is proposing a session for the regular academic program, similar in some way to the one done by Japanese DH supporters in London 2010. I think that was quite a successful session and can serve as a good model. Albeit the time is short, I would think it would be worth trying to get this submitted for the regular process and keep the possibility of a lunch-time event as plan B for the moment.
As to Marcus' proposal: From the wording it is not clear to me if this is about "DH in China" or "DH about China". I assume it should be the former. The reason I bring this up is again an observation from the Japanese (and also German) experience, where early efforts in DH where driven by people in English or Linguistic departments. So I think strategically, it would be important to be as inclusive as possible and emphasize that all DH efforts in the Chinese speaking world are a target for us.
Just my 2 cents with greetings from Kyoto.

Dear Christian,
Dan, Neil and I were rather thinking of the ADHO lunch-time event. We felt we are somewhat too late to organize a regular panel. Also it seems that right now no one can right now make the commitment to organize and (co-)chair a regular session. I hope we would be able to find speakers who can represent their regions for this short meeting. To clarify: "Chinese DH" means DH work done in the Chinese speaking world independently of subject matter.

Dear Marcus,
Thanks for the clarifications. I guess the reason for my confusion is that you were talking about the Nov. 1 deadline, which I assumed to be the deadline for academic proposals. Does the lunch time event also has a deadline for proposals on that same day? Anyway, even if that was not your intention, I think it would be worth thinking about proposing a regular session.
All the best, Christian

Could we throw something together that quickly? Obviously this is out of my area. If we could that would be superb.
Could we maybe work both lines of attack? But we'd need some strong and quick ideas.

Dear all,
Below a proposal for a GO::DH session at the DH 2013. Ideas? Suggestions? Comments? The application deadline is Thursday so there is not much time left but there is still time for changes.

============================= ADHO GO:DH Session on “Chinese DH”
The newly founded ADHO initiative Global Outreach (GO::DH) aims to facilitate communication between the various ADHO committees and emergent DH groups and activities in countries which are not yet well represented within ADHO. This session proposal is one of GO::DH attempts to raise the visibility of underrepresented communities, in this case, of work done in the Chinese speaking world.
Like all cultures, China is faced with the question of how to model its cultural heritage in a digital environment. Comparable only to India in historic range, geographic size, and population, there are various initiatives in China, Hongkong and Taiwan that work on solutions to digitize and distribute their shared cultural heritage. After successful international cooperation yielded the Unicode standard, which resolved the pressing issue of how to represent the logographic writing system in computing, continued dialog on standards and practices in DH is of mutual interest for both ADHO members and the emerging DH centers in China, Hongkong and Taiwan. In East Asia, efforts by Japanese practitioners of DH has already resulted in the foundation of the Japanese Association of Digital Humanities, which joined ADHO last year, an important development in the globalization of the field. In the Chinese speaking world too there is great potential for dialog, synergy and cooperation between DH centers to discuss standards and practices. Communication about shared standards generally improves the chances that the results are interchangeable, avoids duplication of efforts, and increases efficiency.
As internationalization and support for developing, regional centers is part of ADHO’s mission, the members of the GO::DH feel it is desirable to organize a roundtable on “Chinese DH” with representatives from China, Taiwan, Hongkong and perhaps Singapore to speak about the situation of DH in their societies and the prospects and potential problems for further collaboration with both within East Asia as well as with ADHO members.
Following a discussion on the globaloutlookdh list regarding the possible format for such a roundtable, Neil Fraistat, the current Chair of ADHO, offered to split the ADHO business meeting and use the second 45 min section to a ADHO GO::DH roundtable on “Chinese DH”.
We plan to invite at least one representative from China, Hongkong and Taiwan to speak for 10 min to provide the audience with a quick overview of activities, followed by a 15 min roundtable discussion with the speakers and one or two GO::DH members. Possible questions to explore: What are the prospects for further national or regional organization in East Asia? How can we make better use of existing structures to further the globalization of Chinese DH? How viable, e.g., would be a panel in Chinese at the next DH?

I don't see how the SC could approve it by Thursday, Marcus, especially because we don't have any speakers lined up.
To do it as part of an ADHO lunchtime business meeting, however, would free us from the Nov. 1 deadline and provide time to put a full potential program together.

This is how I'd understood things too. To be honest, since this is our first project and we are also still drafting a terms of reference (and doing it during a hurricane, no less) this is maybe even the best way. I think we could probably incorporate Christian's suggestions into this kind of proposal.
Alternatively we would need to get speakers and throw together the program by Thursday (assuming no hurricane- related extensions arise).
While Marcus has given us a great text to start that might, be too high a hurdle. Though I cede to your collective knowledge of the potential pool of speakers.
People on this list in the hurricane affected area include Neil Peter and Marcus. , I hope you all weathered it!.

Dear all,
I can do the Taiwanese part if no one has a better candidate. For Hong Kong I would recommend Ping-Chen Hsiung, a Professor of History and a former Dean of Arts at the Chinese U. of HK. Don't have anyone of similar caliber in China to recommend, though.

After successful international cooperation yielded the Unicode standard, which resolved the pressing issue of how to represent the logographic writing system in computing, continued dialog on standards and practices in DH is of mutual interest for both ADHO members and the emerging DH centers in China, Hongkong and Taiwan. In East Asia, efforts by Japanese practitioners of DH has already resulted in the foundation of the Japanese Association of Digital Humanities, which joined ADHO last year, an important development in the globalization of the field. In the Chinese speaking world too there is great potential for dialog, synergy and cooperation between DH centers to discuss standards and practices. Communication about shared standards generally improves the chances that the results are interchangeable, avoids duplication of efforts, and increases efficiency.
As internationalization and support for developing, regional centers is part of ADHO’s mission, the members of the GO::DH feel it is desirable to organize a roundtable on “Chinese DH” with representatives from China, Taiwan, Hongkong and perhaps Singapore to speak about the situation of DH in their societies and the prospects and potential problems for further collaboration with both within East Asia as well as with ADHO members.
Following a discussion on the globaloutlookdh list regarding the possible format for such a roundtable, Neil Fraistat, the current Chair of ADHO, offered to split the ADHO business meeting and use the second 45 min section to a ADHO GO::DH roundtable on “Chinese DH”.
We plan to invite at least one representative from China, Hongkong and Taiwan to speak for 10 min to provide the audience with a quick overview of activities, followed by a 15 min roundtable discussion with the speakers and one or two GO::DH members. Possible questions to explore: What are the prospects for further national or regional organization in East Asia? How can we make better use of existing structures to further the globalization of Chinese DH? How viable, e.g., would be a panel in Chinese at the next DH?

Just a small comment from the sideline (I have nothing to contribute to such a session): if you make a panel rather than a session you only need one 750-1500 abstract.

Just to be clear: I am happy to propose to the ADHO SC that we split the
business meeting in order to run such a session and am hopeful that they will agree, but it would have to be voted on by the SC first. So it would be a mistake to take this as a given until the SC has agreed.

============================= ADHO GO:DH Session on “Chinese DH”
The newly founded ADHO initiative Global Outreach (GO::DH) aims to
facilitate communication between the various ADHO committees and emergent DH groups and activities in countries which are not yet well represented within ADHO. This session proposal is one of GO::DH attempts to raise the visibility of underrepresented communities, in this case, of work done in the Chinese speaking world.
Like all cultures, China is faced with the question of how to model its
cultural heritage in a digital environment. Comparable only to India in historic range, geographic size, and population, there are various initiatives in China, Hongkong and Taiwan that work on solutions to digitize and distribute their shared cultural heritage. After successful international cooperation yielded the Unicode standard, which resolved the pressing issue of how to represent the logographic writing system in computing, continued dialog on standards and practices in DH is of mutual interest for both ADHO members and the emerging DH centers in China, Hongkong and Taiwan. In East Asia, efforts by Japanese practitioners of DH has already resulted in the foundation of the Japanese Association of Digital Humanities, which joined ADHO last year, an important development in the globalization of the field. In the Chinese speaking world too there is great potential for dialog, synergy and cooperation between DH centers to discuss standards and practices. Communication about shared standards generally improves the chances that the results are interchangeable, avoids duplication of efforts, and increases efficiency.
As internationalization and support for developing, regional centers is
part of ADHO’s mission, the members of the GO::DH feel it is desirable to organize a roundtable on “Chinese DH” with representatives from China, Taiwan, Hongkong and perhaps Singapore to speak about the situation of DH in their societies and the prospects and potential problems for further collaboration with both within East Asia as well as with ADHO members.
Following a discussion on the globaloutlookdh list regarding the
possible format for such a roundtable, Neil Fraistat, the current Chair of ADHO, offered to split the ADHO business meeting and use the second 45 min section to a ADHO GO::DH roundtable on “Chinese DH”.
We plan to invite at least one representative from China, Hongkong and
Taiwan to speak for 10 min to provide the audience with a quick overview of activities, followed by a 15 min roundtable discussion with the speakers and one or two GO::DH members. Possible questions to explore: What are the prospects for further national or regional organization in East Asia? How can we make better use of existing structures to further the globalization of Chinese DH? How viable, e.g., would be a panel in Chinese at the next DH?
ADHO GO::DH Session (45 min)
- DH in China (10min)
- DH in Hongkong (10min)
- DH in Taiwan (10min)
- Roundtable (15min)

Hi all, If we are going to propose angular session, we need to start finalising details.
Basically if we go with Oyvind's suggestion of a round table then the main thing is the speakers,
We can use Marcus's draft description as the Panel abstract. Jieh had some suggestions for speakers from T & H-K. If I understood Neil correctly, Mitsu's former student has just set up a centre in PRC.
Should we go for it? If so, then Jieh & Mitsu would need to see if their ideas for speakers would be interested. Maybe if Marcus sent a Clean copy of his abstract to the list again (cc'd to Mitsu who is not on the list) they could pass it on to their contacts to see if they are interested.
If this is all too rushed, then we can still go the business - meeting route. That allows us more time. Those who know the field people,, and customs better than I can make that call however.,
Either way, this looks like a great start! - dan

Hi all,
I am somewhat skeptical that a full panel can be arranged in the next few days, because we would need full abstracts. Nevertheless, we can try: here is an edited draft of the proposal that Jieh and perhaps Mitsu might want to expand on. All we would need would be concrete suggestions for speakers and topics (and abstracts). I have added one speaker for "Digitization of Buddhist Cultural Heritage" ideally someone from DDBC (Joey, will you be going?), if not there is still Christian or myself. I would much hope Prof. Jieh Hsiang could chair the panel. That would be a great help for both Chinese DH and GO::DH.
First draft: ============================ GO:DH Session on “Chinese DH”

The panel will consist of at least one representative from China, Hongkong and Taiwan. Participants will provide the audience with an overview of the history of DH in the region or field, followed by a roundtable discussion with the speakers and one or two GO::DH members. Possible questions to explore: What are the prospects for further national or regional organization in East Asia? How can we make better use of existing structures to further the globalization of Chinese DH? How viable, e.g., would be a panel in Chinese at the next DH? Are existing standards (Unicode, TEI, EAD, CDWA etc.) sufficient for the Chinese Cultural heritage or should they be extended? What infrastructure needs are there for developing and training in Chinese DH?
Panel “Chinese DH” Chair: Jieh?
1. DH in China (Mitsu Inaba?) 2. DH in Hongkong (Ping-Chen Hsiung?) 3. DH in Taiwan (Jieh?) 4. Digitization of Chinese Buddhist Culture (Joey Hung?) 5. Roundtable discussion ===================================
all the best

I doubt we could get paper abstracts in the next two days as well. But for a roundtable all we need is a session abstract & speakers' names I believe.
I was thinking that if we did that (a roundtable), your draft would make a good abstract. All we'd need would be the names .
My 2 cents, anyway.

hi all:
no matter it would be a session or a round table discussion, if there are slots still available, I am happy to join. I can share my knowledge about the digitization activity for Buddhist Cultural Heritage, also I would like to throw some basic ideas and to discuss with all of you about how we can spread the DH idea to Chinese researcher, and how/what practical training course we can/should provide to them. But in fact, I vote for a round table discussion, since it is not easy for me to prepare a proper abstract in two days.

I doubt we could get paper abstracts in the next two days as well. But for a roundtable all we need is a session abstract & speakers' names I believe.
I was thinking that if we did that (a roundtable), your draft would make a good abstract. All we'd need would be the names .
My 2 cents, anyway.

GO:DH Session on “Chinese DH”
90 min panel / 4-6 speakers The newly founded ADHO initiative Global Outreach (GO::DH) aims to facilitate communication between the various ADHO committees and emergent DH groups and activities in countries which are not yet well represented within ADHO. This session proposal is one of GO::DH attempts to raise the visibility of underrepresented communities, in this case, of work done in the Chinese speaking world. Like all cultures, China is faced with the question of how to model its cultural heritage in a digital environment. Comparable only to India in historic range, geographic size, and population, there are various initiatives in China, Hongkong and Taiwan that work on solutions to digitize and distribute their shared cultural heritage. After successful international cooperation yielded the Unicode standard, which resolved the pressing issue of how to represent the logographic writing system in computing, continued dialog on standards and practices in DH is of mutual interest for both ADHO members and the emerging DH centers in China, Hongkong and Taiwan. In East Asia, efforts by Japanese practitioners of DH has already resulted in the foundation of the Japanese Association of Digital Humanities, which joined ADHO last year, an important development in the globalization of the field. In the Chinese speaking world too there is great potential for dialog, synergy and cooperation between DH centers to discuss standards and practices. Communication about shared standards generally improves the chances that the results are interchangeable, avoids duplication of efforts, and increases efficiency. As internationalization and support for developing, regional centers is part of ADHO’s mission, the members of the GO::DH feel it is desirable to organize a roundtable on “Chinese DH” with representatives from China, Taiwan, Hongkong and perhaps Singapore to speak about the situation of DH in their societies and the prospects and potential problems for further collaboration with both within East Asia as well as with ADHO members.

I'd be willing to serve as a respondent, maybe together with Marcus. (I'm not 100% sure I can attend in person and neither is Marcus. If worst comes to worse I would be willing to participate remotely via Skype et.al.)
BTW, I think technically what we are aiming for is what the CFP describes as a 90-minute panel with 4 - 6 speakers, for which one 750-1500 word abstract is required and an indication that each speaker is willing to participate in the session.
All the best,
