Invited experts discussing Technology for the People
Awesome panel hosted by S+T@UW discussing Technology for the People. Great discussions on Technodetermism, agency, data surveillance and so much more
Just finished reading Offshore by @ebharrington.bsky.social. Amazing work that was funded by the NEH, and a book I only read coz it was available from the library. Long live public funding!
The first in UPSLIS to get this award. Congratulations @iyra_buenrostro! Well-deserved! https://x.com/upslis/status/1658623369095389184
Done with the last day of #CollectionsAsData. Aside from the cookies, the best part of this summit really was meeting the people I only knew as authors and meeting new people who are also doing wonderful projects from across the globe
Not gonna lie, one of the highlights of my #CollectionsAsData experience is meeting @DCNB in person. Hi Devin! Haha, nice meeting you! And looking forward to more possibilities in the future!
Finished the first day of #CollectionsAsData. Met so many amazing people in this beautiful building, which is the office of @internetarcCA. @thomasgpadilla and the team have done a wonderful job organizing this event. Also, so excited to have met @professorcaz!!!
Lots of work is still needed in realizing a unified Philippine Martial Law digital archives/library, but I am very optimistic especially with the people working in this space
Thank you to the organizations who participated in our 3-day workshop on Digitization and Digital Preservation. Thank you also to @iyra_buenrostro and @jSurmieda, and to my partner in crafting this workshop and proposal, @maureenh1!
Officially received my letter of tenure which was effective last year. This will not be possible without all the people from @upslis, my mentors from UTS (@drmichaelolsson and @maureenh1), and friends and family that supported me along the way. Such an honor and privilege!
Always a pleasure to have @edrabinski talk about how essential libraries are. Thank you Emily!
I know that many students last semester were so burnt out with the online classes, so I did not expect this kind of feedback. Thank you to my students for the generous words; I hope that the face-to-face set-up next semester will give you a new and exciting environment
Great speakers and a wonderful cohort -- everyone is doing amazing digital humanities projects. Learned a lot. The next Cultural Heritage Data School is in March and will be face-to-face in Cambridge, UK: https://www.cdh.cam.ac.uk/events/35485/ https://x.com/CamDigHum/status/1603791445554520064
