CFP: Edited Collection on "Digital Humanities Laboratories"
by Urszula Pawlicka-Deger 20 Apr '20

20 Apr '20

Dear all, We are inviting proposals towards a book project tentatively titled "*Digital Humanities Laboratories: Global Perspectives*". The goal of this collection is to explore laboratories in digital humanities in the global context, to reflect on their epistemological and organizational implications for scholarly knowledge production, and to reveal the ways laboratories contribute to digital research and pedagogy as they emerge globally amid varied cultural and scientific traditions. We have received positive responses from the Series Editors of *Digital Research in the Arts and Humanities*, and we are working with an editor from Routledge to develop this project further. Please see the CFP below and feel free to distribute it among your colleagues! *Deadline for 500-word abstract with a short bio: 15 June 2020.* If you have questions, please contact us at the email addresses below. Kind regards, Urszula Pawlicka-Deger (Aalto University): pawlickadeger(a)gmail.com Christopher Thomson (University of Canterbury): christopher.thomson(a)canterbury.ac.nz -- Urszula Pawlicka-Deger, Ph.D. Postdoctoral Researcher Department of Media, Aalto University https://research.aalto.fi/portal/urszula.pawlicka.html

Dear ADHO Communications Committee, This note is first to ask for some assistance reviewing the French translation of the DH2020 announcement, attached. The DH2020 organizers have had the translation created but ask that we proofread the post. If you read French and can take a quick look at this and let us know any errors, we would greatly appreciate it! We're hoping to post this next week. Second, if your CO has appointed a new representative for this committee, please also let me know! Thank you all! Hannah Chair, ADHO Communications

Dear all, Please find below a link to the report submitted to ADHO’s Steering Committee about the Communications Team’s activities this past year. Please let me know if you have any questions. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ZzPuwXR2jzt85Y4E9oqqMWNX9gRdAO6BO4YXiGTaj… In addition, I’m happy to announce that we have two new communications fellows, Anna-Maria Sichani and Randa El-Khatib. I’ve pasted in a little information about them. They will begin their fellowships next week. Our 2016-17 fellows, Sarah Hackney and Maribel Hidalgo Urbaneja, have been a joy to work with. They have represented ADHO with grace and care this past year, and I wish them all the best in their future endeavors. Finally, I and several other Committee Chairs will be stepping down following the 2017 conference. If you or anyone you know would fit well in one of these roles, please do submit a nomination: http://adho.org/announcements/2017/join-adho-steering-committee. All best wishes, Hannah --- Hannah L. Jacobs Multimedia Analyst, Wired!

She has assisted with the coordination of DHSI in recent years El Khatib is fluent in English, Russian, and Arabic. She writes, "These combined [experiences] have exposed me to major digital humanities trends, allowed me to gain a wide perspective on its present status in different parts of the world, and kept me up to date with the rapidly evolving field.

We apologize for any cross-postings and appreciate it if you could forward this call to those who may be interested in this conference. *Call for Papers/Panels/Posters* *The 8th International Conference of Digital Archives and Digital Humanities* *Conference Theme: Digital Humanities Evolving: Past, Present, and Future* Venue: National Chengchi University, Taipei Dates: November 29 – December 1, 2017 URL: http://www.aiecon.org/conference/DADH2017/index.htm While the debates over the definition, landscape, and scale of digital humanities continue, digital humanists seem to have a consensus that digital humanities are constantly evolving and facing new challenges. Take big data as an example. Technologies automatically and instantly archive what people say, what people do, and even what people think. The rich information provided by big data leads humanities research to a new frontier that can hardly be imagined by classical humanists. However, the self-archived data contain real, virtual, and even fake contents. How shall digital archivists and digital humanists embrace big data and big data analytics? Alternatively, will the ubiquitous digitization transform human culture and make “digital humanities” simply become “humanities”? Digitalization involves computing. Digital humanists share the same tools with computational social scientists to extract information, to analyze social network, and to perform geospatial analysis. Digital humanists have also attempted to apply the tools of computational social sciences to model and simulate the complex human experiences. In the meanwhile, computational social scientists are exploring sentiment modeling. When the research tools and topics of interest become common, how far can digital humanists and social scientists collaborate to gain deeper insights into common research problems and cope with shared challenges? Continuing the legacy of the past 7 annual conferences of DADH, we welcome the submissions of paper or poster abstracts and panel proposals related to, but not limited to, the aforementioned issues, digital technologies and applications, interdisciplinary research in humanities and social sciences with the use of digital data, theoretical and epistemological considerations in digital humanities, digital humanities education, digital arts and music, digital infrastructure, cultural heritage, and internet analysis. Submission Guidelines - Submission of a single paper abstract, poster abstract, or a panel proposal is welcomed. - All submissions are to be done online (website: http://www.aiecon.org/conference/DADH2017/submission.htm). - Submitted abstract for a single paper or poster should contain 1,000-3,000 words. - Submitted panel proposal should contain at least 1,500 words. The panel proposal should provide an overview and the abstracts of 3-4 papers. *Post-Conference Publication* All authors who attend the conference will be invited to submit revised papers to the special issues of the following journals: New Mathematics and Natural Computation <http://www.worldscientific.com/worldscinet/nmnc> (World Scientific) Journal of Digital Archives and Digital Humanities (Taiwanese Association for Digital Humanities) Detailed information will be announced later. *Important Dates* - 2017/07/16：Paper/Poster/Panel submission due - 2017/08/31：Acceptance Notification due - 2017/10/04：Early registrations due - 2017/11/04：Presenter registrations due - 2017/11/24：Registrations due - 2017/11/29-12/01：Conference Dates *Sponsors:* AI-Econ Research Center National Chengchi University Research Center for Digital Humanities, National Taiwan University Taiwanese Association for Digital Humanities

ADHO Communications - Update & Fellows
by Hannah Jacobs 25 Apr '17

25 Apr '17

Dear all, This list for ADHO's Communications Committee has been largely silent this year mainly due to the fact that ADHO communications have largely been running very smoothly. We have maintained communications channels via the website, social media, and email lists, and due to our activities we have begun receiving more requests from CO members and the DH community to assist in amplifying DH community news and events, resulting in a widening network of DH communicators. In June, I will share with you and the SC an annual report that provides further details on our activities and advancements. In the meantime, I'm happy to report that the ADHO SC has agreed to continue the fellows program for a fourth year. You likely will have seen the call for 2017-18 Communications Fellows<http://adho.org/announcements/2017/call-applicants-2017-18-communications-f…> that was sent out last week. I'm pleased to have received a number of emails expressing interest already. If you know of anyone who might be an ideal candidate, I hope you'll consider sharing this opportunity with them. In addition, I write to ask if you might be available to review fellows applications in early June in order to identify next year's cohort. It's crucial to the process that we receive input from this committee in order to make selections. The process is simple: each reviewer ranks the candidate applications individually and sends in those rankings along with any notes. I tally the rankings, and the top two applicants are chosen along with a third alternate. I do very much appreciate your willingness to serve in an advisory role for the communications team. Please let me know if you are available to act as a reviewer this year. All best wishes, Hannah --- Hannah L. Jacobs Multimedia Analyst, Wired!
