***We apologise for any duplication***

 

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

 

We cordially invite you to submit a short audio for the planned anthology "From Global to Local? Digital Methods in the Humanities: A Triptych".

 

The aim of the anthology is to retrace and continue the eventful development of the digital humanities. It will critically scrutinise the implications of these developments for the disciplinary self-image of the humanities and cultural studies and the epistemic promise of digital methods.

 

 

The editors are planning the following components of the triptych in partial coordination: 

1) Melanie Seltmann + Christopher Nunn: BE-FORSCHEN: "classic" articles

2) Ulrike Wuttke + Anne Baillot IN OWN WORDS: audio(visual) formats (TBA)

3) Christian Schröter (née Vater) + Christian Wachter: ARTEFAKTE: artefact biographies on case studies of computer use in the humanities

 

We now cordially invite the community to submit short audio contributions (in German or English) under the motto "5 questions - 1 answer" that answer ONE of the following questions:

 

1.     Wo verorten Sie DH für das disziplinäre Verständnis der geistes- und kulturwissenschaftlichen Fächer? | What is the contribution of DH to the self-understanding of Humanities disciplines?

2.     Sind die transformativen Potenziale des Computereinsatzes bereits ausgeschöpft? | Are the transformative potentials of computer use for the Humanities already exhausted?

3.     Welche nationalen Eigenheiten prägen die DH im deutschsprachigen Raum und gibt es eine eigenständige “kontinentale” Traditionslinie? | Which national specificities characterize DH in the German-speaking area and is there something like a continental tradition of DH?

4.     Welche Stimmen sind im big tent der DH unterrepräsentiert? | What voices are underrepresented under the DH big tent?

5.     Wo sollen die DH in 10 Jahren stehen? | Where do you see DH 10 years from now?

 

More information on the background, content focus and important tips for recording and submitting the short audio contribution (1-3 min.) can be found in the detailed Call for Contributions on the DHd blog: https://dhd-blog.org/?p=21286

If suitable, the contributions will be used by us for audio features, which are expected to be published in the anthology as well as in the media repository of the University of Luxembourg and in the form of a podcast via the usual distribution channels under the licence CC BY-SA 4.0 and a PID.

We look forward to your submissions!

Yours sincerely

Ulrike Wuttke and Anne Baillot for the editorial team
