FYI @anasalter.bsky.social you got a lot of shoutouts at our Day of #DH event, especially from Cuong and Jane presenting on the RenPy games they made in your awesome Interactive Digital Narratives course at Carleton this winter anastasiasalter.net/Interactive-... Thanks again for your amazing visit!

Thanks @anasalter.bsky.social for making the full materials for this vital workshop on #DH programming in the Age of #AI public (as you do for so much of your pedagogical work).

My biggest frustration with the Carleton trimester schedule is missing all the May conferences — but we can read yours!
Wrapping up my week teaching "DH Programming in the Age of AI" with @lucidbard.bsky.social at #DHSI! The final week of materials are online now, including some thoughts on pedagogy from the group's conversations. Thanks everyone who joined us! 😄 anastasiasalter.net/DHProgramming/

Thanks Jack! So glad you were able to attend and keep Day of #DH going as a regional gathering for #Digitalhumanities work
I attended the Carleton College Day of DH yesterday. It's one of my favorite conferences as it includes abundant undergraduate student work and facilitates productive conversations about DH pedagogy. A couple notes from yesterday . . . @carleton.edu

Do you learn by doing? @ies-sas.bsky.social has a new summer school course that explores medieval manuscripts by making them. You’ll learn how inks and pigments were made and used and get to experiment for yourself! 📖📚🎨 @ies-sas.bsky.social book 👇 ies.sas.ac.uk/london-rare-...

A note to Humanities colleagues: @altmetric captures mentions of our work just as well as scientific publications (at least so far as Bluesky goes). Just make sure you link to the original study in your post. "Likes" don't count. Reposts do.
Re-upping this for everyone staring down the barrel of annual reviews — @altmetric.com tracks Bsky mentions of research
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.

A Place of Joy.

Which was maybe a sideways way of reminding folks that applications to our "Building Book Labs" symposium @skeuomorph.bsky.social Press this coming May, are due in 2 days. We will not be extending this CFP so if you are interested, let us know!

You guys, everybody is here now!

It really does feel like pre-pandemic Twitter born again with all the scholarly community networking goodness and none of the bleak, latter-day hellscape vibes.

Excited to reconnect with my #medievalsky #digitalhumanities and #digitalmedievalist peeps again

It feels fitting that my first post on this hopefully-not-as-much-a-hellsite-as-the-other-place is to share some conference title data from #ACH2023 that I physicalized through weaving in a #DHmakes workshop at #dh2024
