Extended submission deadline (31 July 2022) for On the Margins: Hypertext, Electronic Literature, Digital Humanities conference
by Naomi Wells 02 Jul '22

02 Jul '22

On the Margins: Hypertext, Electronic Literature, Digital Humanities Senate House, University of London London, UK, 15-16 December 2022 https://easychair.org/cfp/Margins22 Submissions deadline: 31 July 2022 Since its early days as a series of experimental approaches, the Hypertext paradigm has proven itself vital in dealing with what Ted Nelson called “deep structural changes in the arrangements of ideas and phenomena.” Whether we conceive of Hypertext as non-sequential writing that branches and allows choices to the reader, or as a body of written or pictorial material interconnected in such a complex way that it could not conveniently be represented on paper, thinking in Hypertext has become a ubiquitous part of everyday life. In our research lives, Hypertext technologies and methodologies are similarly amongst the most prominent and visible outcomes of the “digital age.” Mature products of its investigation by research communities can be found in the work of Electronic Literature scholars and practitioners, Hypertext and Hypermedia specialists, and researchers in the Digital Humanities. However, owing perhaps to their disparate angles of investigation and the sheer scope of activity, these research communities remain fragmented and somehow “on the margins” of wider Humanities and Computer Science scholarship. We invite members of the Hypertext, Electronic Literature and Digital Humanities communities, including PhD and Early Career Researchers, to come together for a two-day conference reflecting on how Hypertext has shaped our research and creative practices, to build research opportunities between sympathetic communities, and to envision how to push the boundaries of Hypertext beyond its current incarnations. We want to inaugurate a space that will promote debate and connections, building new understanding at the crossroads between disciplines. We are planning to hold the conference in person, but can make arrangements to show pre-recorded presentations if you are unable to attend. Call for contributions * Potential topics include but are not limited to: * Studying digital reading experience * Describing “book history” for digital formats * Redefinitions of authorship and collaboration * New literary forms enabled by electronic literature * Multilingual and translingual digital texts and practices * Transmediality * Born-digital archives, genres and emerging formats * Digital scholarly editions * Approaches to digital inclusion * Pedagogy and hypertext applications * Social media * Experimental or early research Submission formats The conference will include three tracks: * Full papers (15-20 minutes) * Posters and Lightning talks (5-10 minutes; PGR and ECR contributions particularly welcome) * Tutorials for tools and demos * For full papers, we invite extended abstracts of 2,000-4,000 (4-8 pages in the ACM CHI Extended Abstract format), plus references. * For posters and lightning talks, we invite extended abstracts of 300-1,000 words (2-4 pages in the ACM CHI Extended Abstract format), plus references. * Accepted abstracts will be published in a peer-reviewed, Open Access volume in the Conference Proceedings of ACM series. * See this page for submission templates<https://chi2022.acm.org/for-authors/presenting/papers/chi-publication-forma…>; both Word and LaTeX formats available. The choice of the extended abstract format bridges practices between the Humanities and Hypertext communities, promoting the inclusion of scholars at different career stages and leaving a lasting legacy for the conference that can continue to benefit the research community. Please note that not all elements of the template will be relevant to all submissions. For tutorials, proposals should provide the following information: * title and brief description of the content or topic and its relevance to the conference theme (not more than 1000 words); * full contact information for all tutorial instructors, including a one-paragraph statement summarising their research interests and areas of expertise; * description of target audience and expected number of participants (based, if possible, on past experience); * any special requirements for technical support * a brief outline showing that the core content can be covered in approximately 2 hours, plus breaks Important dates * CfP opens 6 April 2022 * Paper, poster and workshop submission by 31 July 2022 * Acceptance by 5 September 2022 Confirmed Keynote speakers * Gustavo Gomez-Mejia (University of Tours) * James O’Sullivan (University College Cork) Conference programme committee * Alessio Antonini (Open University) * Francesca Benatti (Open University) * Sam Brooker (Richmond) * Christopher Ohge (School of Advanced Study, University of London) * Naomi Wells (School of Advanced Study, University of London) * Jane Winters (School of Advanced Study, University of London) Dr Naomi Wells Lecturer in Italian and Spanish with Digital Humanities/Co-Director of the Doctoral Centre Institute of Modern Languages Research/Digital Humanities Research Hub School of Advanced Study | University of London Senate House | Malet Street | London WC1E 7HU | UK Email: naomi.wells(a)sas.ac.uk http://modernlanguages.sas.ac.uk/ https://digitalmodernlanguages.wordpress.com/

Hello ~ The ability to read, understand, and communicate data as information is fast becoming essential for education and employment. Through July 31, you are invited to get a jump start on your skills-or advance them to a new level-for free with Constellate<https://constellate.org/>, a service from not-for-profit ITHAKA that provides all the tools for proficiency in data analysis and digital literacy. This summer, you may build a dataset, visualize a dataset (did you know that "mother" occurs considerably more frequently than "father" in scholarly literature about the foster care system?), and even work in the Constellate Lab using our Jupyter Notebooks or your own (a feature usually only available to individuals at participating institutions.) To launch you on your explorations of text analysis and Constellate, we are offering six hour-long webinars every Tuesday at noon EDT: * June 21: Introduction to Constellate<https://constellate.org/events/introduction-to-constellate-open-summer-of-t…> * June 28: Constellate, the Technology<https://constellate.org/events/constellate-the-technology-open-summer-of-te…> * July 5: Considerations when Building a Good Dataset for Text Analysis<https://constellate.org/events/considerations-in-building-a-good-dataset-fo…> * July 12: What Can You Do with Word Counts?<https://constellate.org/events/what-can-you-do-with-word-counts-constellate…> * July 19: Topic Modeling Together<https://constellate.org/events/topic-modelling-together-open-summer-of-text…> * July 26: Introduction to the Constellate Trial and Participation Packages<https://constellate.org/events/introduction-to-the-constellate-trial-and-pa…> You may even take in our four-session "Introduction to Python" course by working in the Constellate Lab alongside a recording of the class<https://constellate.org/events/acrl>. Take advantage of this summer to introduce yourself to text analysis for free and consider how to bring these skills to your campus, help researchers, and collaborate with faculty. Constellate offers everything you need to learn, perform, and teach text analytics: a defined curriculum, robust tutorials, and live classes taught by experts, all tailored to your level of ability. If you enjoy the introduction, speak with your library about doing a robust evaluation of Constellate this fall. I look forward to working with you this summer! ~ Amy -- Amy J.
