Decoding Digital Humanities Decoding Digital Humanities (DDH) is a series of informal monthly meetings for anyone interested in research at the intersection of computational technologies and the humanities. Founded at University College London, these gatherings provide an opportunity to discuss readings and raise questions, but also to mingle and share ideas with others in the field of digital humanities.

DDH Global

DDH has now gone global, with new chapters launching all over the world:

The Roundup gathers everyone's most recent updates, so you don't have to.

The topic of this Decoding Digital Humanities will involve discussions about "A Day in the Life of Digital Humanities 2011". This is a project that looks at a day in the working life of people involved in the digital humanities. This will be the third such event and the some of our involvement last year can be seen at the blog post where their details are pulled together. 

The organisers have made this reading available:

Rockwell et al 2010: A Day in the Life of Digital Humanities. Digital Humanities 2010. (pp.208-211). London: Office for Humanities Communication. (PDF)

We have also decided to change locations.  Despite the good beer, the Wheatsheaf was incredibly noisy and we couldn’t hear ourselves think. Foster Court has a nice new Common Room, with lovely red sofas, so we will be giving that a try.  Wine will be provided! To save you getting lost we provide a map showing the Malet Place entrance and Foster Court (the Common Room is along the corridor from G32). 

As per usual: if you cannot make this date but are interested in future meetings, you can join the the DDH e-list!

If you have any suggestions for subjects to discuss or articles to read you can email your suggestions to decodingdh@ucl.ac.uk or leave a comment on the DH Blog.
