I finally got around to scanning a series of printed slides (okay, decal-ed slides) that I produced as an art project last spring. (Shout out to the wonderful work of the Creative Futures #HASTAC group, who let me show it last June.) IU has some archival quality scanners, so I got these HUGE scans of each of the slides.

The idea was to overlap two images in different colors (Red and blue) to think about how aspects of medicine which are shown to the public (happy people living in sanatoria) are interlinked with the really awful extractive practices of scientific medicine. The material I used were related to tuberculosis around 1900.

These I love because both images kind of get lost in a kind of abstraction.

#DH #CriticalMaking #ArtsBasedResearch

I'm working on some revisions to a syllabus for IU's #HASTAC scholars. Many of them do not get much training in #DH, and so my colleagues and I have been trying to figure out ways to foreground some discussions in the field.

I came across an excellent article by Daniel Allington, Sarah Brouillette, and David Golumbia which tries to tease out some of the implicit ideological contestations of the field. It's worth a read.

To continue to feature projects related to #AAPI #heritage month and as part of our #multilingualmonday initiative, today let us feature an informative webinar recording by

As I attempt to embody the kinds of governance I'd most like to see in higher education, I gravitate toward radical #transparency. I share work-in-progress early and often. And as a result you're likely to hear a lot from me about how things are going here and particularly about what happened when things go wrong.

Thanks for being part of this new community, and thanks for bearing with us as we learn to fly the plane in mid-air!

*"Something like": We know we had around 31,000 registered users before we onboarded #HASTAC. HASTAC brought with it about 19,000 users who had accounts on their old servers. Some number of those are likely duplicates that didn't get caught in the process. And until HASTAC users actually log in at HCommons, I'm a little uncomfortable counting them. But the number that comes up when we check to see how many members we have is over 50K, so until we get a more accurate count I'm going with it.

Excited to share my collaborative review @HASTACscholars on #DesignJustice by @schock- for those invested in accessibility and design, this book is a compelling (and necessary) read. https://www.hastac.org/blogs/galen-bunting/2022/05/06/review-introduction-sasha-costanza-chocks-design-justice-community #HASTAC
