Day of DH 2021 - April 29 - Save the date!
Day of DH is a way to show how digital humanities happens in many different ways and is practised by a varied group of people. This Day of DH comes after a year of living in the virtual space and for that, it is more special. We have had a year of seeing human life and technology intersect intimately and seen its affordances and its limitations come to the fore virtual meeting after virtual meeting. So #dayofdh2021 provides us with an opportunity to share and reflect upon how a global pandemic changed DH, its directions, your research questions, and more. *The day of DH 2021 will take place on April 29.* This year the organizing committee is led by Loyola University Chicago and UCLA in the USA, the University of Guelph in Canada, and Università del Piemonte Orientale in Italy. Day of DH 2021 theme is MULTILINGUAL DH. We aim to open up conversations about projects being undertaken in the various languages and put together a list of non-English tools, libraries, software products, tips, hacks, and resources available for researchers and institutions. --------- *How can I participate in the Day of DH 2021?* As in the years before, Day of DH will take place primarily on *Twitter* (please follow @dayofdh). If you or your centre will be writing a blog post or sharing news on some other medium, please tweet the URL of your blog post or web page. Please post about your workday, your plans and your daily activities. Also, Day of DH 2021 finally hits *Instagram*! This year, we’ll collect the visual stories and images of the day even on Instagram (please follow @dayofdh), with the shared hashtag #dayofdh2021. Show off your projects, visualizations, exhibits, your work-from-home setup, record a reel to share, set up a guide to DH related studies. Please share pictures as you share your day! Besides, since universities, research centres, and workplaces may still be closed for in-person gatherings, we also encourage hosting virtual lectures, project presentations or stream keynote lectures from past DH conferences. Advertising this with the #dayofdh or #dayofdh2021 hashtag might bring many more attendees to your event than in our former, embodied times. ------- For further information and materials (i.e. DH graphics or Zoom backgrounds), please visit https://dhcenternet.org/initiatives/day-of-dh/2021 and follow the official accounts (@dayofdh) on Instagram and Twitter.
