Hello Everyone on the List
I am Gurpreet Singh from INDIA. Being fairly large country, just to narrow it down, I belong to Punjab in north of India. Currently I am Assistant Professor in CSE at Lovely Professional University, Punjab, INDIA.
Fairly new to the area of DH, I came into contact with DH while studying Corpus Linguistics at Trinity College Dublin. Prior to that I am mainly a DIGITAL person (D of DH) with background in Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning and Computational Linguistics.
My main area of interest is Lexicography for historical and religious texts. Prior to attending DH2012, Hamburg and ESU-C&T, Leipzig and meeting fellow DHumanists there I was thinking there may not be many share my ideas. To my surprise and delight I found quite a few people who were rather interested and appreciated my ideas. Since then I have already received offer for PhD research on my proposal on the same topic.
I am hoping to set up DH Institue in my University and would welcome any suggestion and help about the same.
Regards G. Singh
Very nice to hear from you, Gurpreet, and from everyone doing introductions. I'm Neil Fraistat from the University of Maryland in the United States, where I am a Professor of English and Director of the Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities (MITH). I am currently Chair of the ADHO Steering Committee and Co-Chair of centerNet.
I would be happy to speak off list with Gurpreet and anyone else who is thinking about setting up a dh center or institute, especially those who are trying to do so beyond North America.

Dear list,
My name is Ųyvind Eide. I work a the Unit for Digital Documentation at the University of Oslo and just finished a PhD in Digital Humanities at King's College London. I am appointed from ALLC: The European Association for Digital Humanities to this SIG.
On reason for my interest in this group is a long time involvement in lexicography in Zimbabwe and Mozambique, and also a first nation perspective in my research, where I use historical sources with a strong link to the Sami nation.
I could have written this in Norwegian as well, but we are so anglicised in Scandinavia it is hardly any point...

Hello everyone,
I'm an associate professor of English, teaching mostly linguistics and history of the English language and doing scholarship mostly on Old English materials, at Monmouth University, a medium-sized, teaching-focused university in New Jersey.
My "digital humanities" activity has been primarily in pedagogy. I've been using evolving technologies, starting with a "web log" in the late 90s, through various on-line teaching platforms for on-line classes, in conjunction with traditional classes, and most recently in hybrid teaching.
I've done some scholarship that makes use of digital corpora and dictionaries, and I've published some of it in journals with an open web presence. In the future, I plan to publish more of my work in places not behind a paywall.
I'd like to learn and think more about how "digital" has the potential to change how we do -- and, indeed, define -- "humanities." I'm also interested in how some of the newer projects -- huge, interdisciplinary, funded programs at the big research universities -- might eventually find a place in the smaller institutions.
I look forward to hearing more from this list.
Heide
Hallo alle,
Ich bin Associate Professor in Anglistik bei Monmouth University, eine Universität von mittlerer Grösse in New Jersey, USA. Ich gebe unterricht vor allem in Linguistic und Geschichte der englischen Sprache, und meine Forschung ist im Bereich vom altenglischen Literatur.
Ich bin mit ´digital humanities´ vor allem im Unterricht beschäftigt. Seit den späten 90iger Jahre habe ich entwickelnde Technologien im unterrichten benützt, anfangs mit einem ´web log´ und nachher mit verschiedenes Software mit online Kursen, neben traditionelles Unterricht, und letzlich in Mischklassen, teilweise traditionell und teilweise online.
Ich habe in meiner Forschung digitale Korpora und Wörterbücher benutzt, und ein Teil von meine Artikeln online veröffentlicht. In der zukunft habe ich vor, mehr von meiner Arbeit in offen Webseiten zu veröffentlichen.
Ich möchte, mehr lernen und denken darüber, wie ´digital´ die Potenzial hat, wie wir humanistiche Forschung machen, und zwar definieren, zu ändern. Ich interessiere mich auch in die neue, riesige, interdisziplinäre Projekte, die vor allem in die Forschungsuniversitäten mit bessere Finanzierung, schliesslich auch Platz in die kleinere Universitäten finden werden.
Ich freue mich, mehr von dieser Gruppe zu hören.
Heide

Dear Neil,
As you know a similar discussion is happening in Humanist, however, I am very interested in the subject since I am drafting such a proposal. I would be useful to have a discussion as part of this list or, if this is of no interest to people who live in countries where this stage of DH has already happen. We could set up a subgroup focusing on the topic. Of your expertise on this subject is an excellent starting point, but I also would like to hear about particular issues in countries with a different kind of infrastructure where there are few grants or none at all and where governments might not have this subject very high on the agenda.
What do others think?
Best,
BB

If I might say, I think Barbara's suggestion is along the lines of how we thought the list might originally work: i.e. that people discover some common interest they can work on here. Once they have had a little time for people from other areas and regions to discover more about it and join if it interests them, we can give them space, listservs, and other resources to establish a working group which we'd certainly it is encourage to report back to the general list regularly so that others might discover it.
"How to set up a regional/national DH centre/society" seems to me to be an almost textbook example of a subject for this model: people are going to want to hear about this perennially. Perhaps Centrenet could cooperate with GO::DH to liaise regularly about this here?

Dear Dan, Barbara, and all,
centerNet is, in fact, about to kick off an initiative focused on the starting up of DH centers that Lynne Siemens will be coordinating and I will be participating in.
Our first step is collecting the names of people who are interested in this subject, both from GO::DH and elsewhere, and getting into a focused conversation with them that will take place over email and Skype. We'll also be gathering and sharing various documentary resources for reference, a collection that we hope the group will ultimately contribute to.
We are very aware, though, that there is no one solution that will be right for everyone and that starting centers in countries where the digital humanities as a field is not yet highly visible poses yet another set of challenges.
We'll be contacting all of the people who have written to me offlist. If you have not yet done so but are interested in being part of this conversation, please write to me or Lynne ( siemensl@uvic.ca) offlist.
Best, Neil

Dear all,
Now that the conversation has taken us to India, please let me introduce myself briefly. My name is Wendy Phillips-Rodriguez and I am an Associate Professor at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). My main area of interest (besides DH) is Sanskrit Language and Literature. The last few years I have been working on the application of electronic tools to the textual analysis of the Mahabharata (the largest epic poem of India) and on the advantages that the digital environment can offer for the edition of ancient and medieval texts.
After having compiled the material for a digital edition of one section of the epic (the Dyutaparvan), at the moment I am in the process of finding the best way to publish it. Even though I have the "technical" support from my Institute, they are not very experienced in electronic publications. Thus, Gurpreet´s, Barbara´s and Neil´s discussion about "How to set up a regional/national DH centre/society" (as Dan has accurately named it) would be of my utmost interest.
Best wishes from Mexico, Wendy

Dear colleagues,
My name is Elie Dannaoui, Assistant Professor at the University of Balamand
- Lebanon. I would like to thank you for facilitating these types of
communications and reflections. Just few words about my research interests
and activities. Few years ago, it was not easy for us to defend being at
the same time involved in both Humanities and "Sciences". I say "defend" or
maybe "justify" to describe a spontaneous attitude when questioned about
having a multidisciplinary profile like cases similar to mine (doctorates
in History and in Computer sciences). It seems that some implicit
attitudes tend to become more explicit, and what we feel as Digital
Humanists homogeneous has the chance to be seen as it is or at least not
stereotyped and judged a priori as heterogeneous. I fully agree with Claire
when she talks about recovering identities.
Well, regarding my research interests, they are maybe a little bit far
from the interests of the list members, I concentrate mainly on Arabic. My
activities are oriented towards two objectives:
1) Arabic digital publishing mainly of the Arabic heritage. This field
remains neglected and less studied. Huge efforts still to be paid on this
level to follow the efforts of standardisation and scholarly editing.
2) Arabic corpus building and analysis. Currently I work on building a
corpus of the Arabic Gospels translated since the 8th century. New

Arabists and Arabic scholars.
Best regards,
Elie
