+1000 MT @laurenfklein: Sorry to miss #nmalh @Northeastern, so I'll say it here: merging DH w/traditional areas/approaches is the future.
New Media in American Literary History reinforced my belief that we should more often & consciously bring DH & disciplines together #nmalh
Yes!-@DHCommons will try to help MT @NUlabTMN: @mlmcgill says we need "benchmarks” to make progress on long digital projects legible #nmalh
.@jsench suggest we should be working to help admins & colleagues see current questions as longstanding-rather than focus on newness #nmalh
Lisa Gitelman: “education is a long, slow way to change the world” but it’s perhaps the best way within institutions #nmalh
Love @ellenbooks’ metaphor-@dasmiq’s #viraltexts algorithm as “giant scissors” cutting from #c19am newspapers & pasting into database #nmalh
.@ellenbooks says “backformations” prompt us to notice aspects of historical cultures-networks &c.-we wouldn’t otherwise have noticed #nmalh
.@mlmcgill’s reflections on “the materiality of digitality” recall @mkirschenbaum-she toured EBSCO to experience the digital archive #nmalh
.@mlmcgill urges us to use our scholarly, historical knowledge to help understand our present-not just the other way round #nmalh
Citing @EdwardWhitley’s talk, @EMDillon sees scholarship “moving back & forth” between print & digital work as most exciting #nmalh
Final #nmalh roundtable w/@EMDillon, @ellenbooks, @mlmcgill, & Lisa Gitelman. Excited to hear their reflections on DH, Book History, Am Lit
.@jessicadespain notes only 11/86 projs funded by NEH Preservation & Access in 2006-2011 had a topic other than a white male writer #nmalh
Notes for “How Are New Tools Changing Our Scholarly Questions? & How do you get started in DH?” Working Group docs.google.com/document/d/1_yBza4eTlpe1... #nmalh
+1 MT @USHistoryScene: Thanks to everyone who made day 1 of #nmalh a huge success! Your collaborative ideas, research, & vision inspire!
.@jmreagle talking “Bibliography & Bitrot” at #nmalh follow his slides & links at reagle.org/joseph/talks/2013/12-bib...
“What do we do with our sense of the underwear?” @jsench asks abt digitizing material texts (paper made, often, from old underwear) #nmalh
#nmalh @jsench on “the positing of the material memory of an object” that is embedded within the paper object
.@jsench interested in intersections between “content disciplines” (literature, history) & “form disciplines” (library, info science) #nmalh
I must pay full attention to #nmalh today, but will catch up w/#sortingdh through @adelinekoh & others’ feeds-sounds like a great meeting
Reminder: we’ll be live-streaming “New Media in American Literary History” @NUlabTMN tomorrow & Fri-tune in! http://www.northeastern.edu/nulab/nmalh/ #nmalh
