Digitorium

Call for Proposals

Digitorium returns with energy and optimism. This year, Digitorium asks you to ENGAGE! We want to use this conference to inspire each other, to teach each other, and to celebrate each other in our work as Digital Humanists. We encourage submissions that ask big questions, present puzzles for problem-solving, and share outside of the box ideas. Together, we engage Digital Humanities for a brighter future!

Deadline: June 15, 2024

We want you to engage with… 

…each other: how are you collaborating and partnering? 

…our communities: how do you engage with your research subjects and audience? 

…our technology: what ways are you engaging with technology to manifest your vision? 

…our students: how are we educating the future generation through and about DH? 

… the big picture: what are some important things in today’s DH ecology? 

Presentation Formats:  

• Papers: 15 minute presentations (max 2000 words). Papers are an opportunity for solo presenters to submit a presentation on their project or idea and can describe theoretical or conceptual ideas or can focus on in progress or completed projects.  Sessions for papers will be scheduled in groups of three. 
• Panels: a presentation for collaborators or scholars who are working on related or similar projects. Panels are 45 minutes long and have a minimum of 2 co-presenters. This presentation format can be a collaborative presentation or a discussion-based presentation with a moderator.   
• Roundtables: facilitated conversation about a DH tool or concept. Presenters will pose a short discussion prompt and a short list of questions that participants can engage with.    
• Lightning Talks (students only):  solo presentation of a small project or an aspect of a project (<10 minutes, max 1000 words). Lightening talks are bite size presentations of materials and are not intended to go into great depth.   
• Poster Sessions (students only): a poster session is a visual representation of a research project. Posters will include title, research questions, methodology, data, findings, and a bibliography. Posters are a way to visually engage participants and are a great place to showcase data visualization and graphics. Posters will be uploaded into a conference gallery and presenters will show their posters at a designated time during the conference.
