As #AAS2021 comes to "close," let me say that this virtual conference was an incredible feat of organizing. You'll never be able to satisfy everyone because our needs & preferences are so different, but the interface was smooth, glitches minimal, & staff responsive. Bravo! 👏👏
Incredibly grateful for the Japanese scholars who are awake at 4 am JST (!!) to be in the chat for their #AAS2021 panel: Towards Data Sharing, Integration, and Multi-proxy Collaboration in Historical Studies: New Insights and Future Challenges in Japan! 💻 #DHJPN #DH
Oops, a little late now (I got distracted by the dedicated kuzushiji group that still did a session today!) but premodern Japan sessions on this last day of #AAS2021 are:
Last day of #AAS2021! Making some fresh coffee and then hopping into the virtual lounge for a bit in 10 minutes for those who want to say hi! ☕
Ah yes, the panoptic nightmare of getting Facebook friend recommendations based on an #AAS2021 hallway video chat. 🙃
Going to have a bit of a morning hang in the virtual lounge if anyone wants to drop in floor 5 and say hello! 👋 #AAS2021
My #AAS2021 mission this week has been to drop good vibes into the discussion chat whenever I'm listening because it feels like a faceless void. ✨ Wish we could see how many viewers were "in" the panel at the same time!
Good morning, #AAS2021 fam! This morning in premodern Japan research, lots on early modern and early 20th century diets! 🍚 Followed by the EMJ Net meeting at 10am. Full schedule here: docs.google.com/document/d/1KAfpiglOd4co...
Something tells me I’ve been too busy with #AAS2021 to pay attention to the truly important things. 👀💦 #AASpets
PHEW. I am completely blown away by the Digital Humanities Japan turnout tonight! ~33 people at the meeting-in-conjunction, and pretty much all of them stayed the full 2 hours and then some! 😱 MY PEOPLE! Thank you so much!! I hope we can meet up again soon!! 💻 #AAS2021 #DHJPN
To be fair peak "treating #AAS2021 like any other conference" is feeling tired during a panel and leaving halfway through to hang out in the lounge.
This virtual lounge thing is super weird but I might hang around on it for a little bit? #AAS2021
Listening to this excellent #AAS2021 panel on digital projects and traditional Japanese performance organized by @LimBengChoo2 and having visceral flashbacks to learning noh in college. 😳
This morning in #AAS2021 premodern Japan papers: blindness & disability in medieval Buddhist lit & Edo medical texts; performance & digital media; dragons, rain & kingship in medieval Japan; & more! 🐉 See the full schedule of premodern Japan talks here:...
Rude of the #AAS2021 "around the world" photo scavenger hunt to make me take a hard look at my life like that. 😳🤣
#AAS2021 video chat session not as engaging for the #AASpets menagerie when the window is open for the spring sunshine. 🐾☀️
This morning in premodern Japanese Studies at #AAS2021, bright and early we've got ancient history and archaeology ⛏️ as well as data visualizations on the Edo period! 💻 #Japan #DHJPN docs.google.com/document/d/1KAfpiglOd4co...
Finished out the day listening to @KaitlynUgoretz's fantastic digital technology lightning talk. 💻 Highly recommend watching to learn about these online tools from an expert even if you're not doing digital fieldwork! Lots of applications for research and teaching. #AAS2021
