Happy to announce that my personal favorite article to date is out! If you are interested in understanding how the precarity of born-digital media artifacts, the imagination of queer folks, and Furby tell us something about information worldbuilding, then you should read this! tinyurl.com/4afvv7sm

My first #DH2026 in the books, and I’ve just got to say, what a spectacular, wide-ranging bunch of work this community is doing. I am invigorated, grateful, excited

Daejeon by night… #DH2026 #Korea

Thank you! (that slide was born from tears and betrayal by 'bag of words') You can see the slides here: drive.google.com/file/d/19JXy...

'What changed from the abstract, and why' is the most Digital Humanities slide ever. So many presentations sharing honestly what didn't work as expected or yield useful results. This one is by Jiwoo Choi (I think) dh-daejeon.vercel.app/abs/65?q=New... (Here, 'bag of words' access was no good)

My latest contribution to the DH community: I finally persuaded my partner Jingzhou, an Early Modern English literature scholar, to join the DH community🤣 Please join us tomorrow morning at #DH2026 if you're able!

Jingzhou Zhang@jingzhouzhang.bsky.social · 7d ago

Join us at #DH2026 (31th July, 11-12:30 PM, Room 204-105 and on Zoom) for our presentation! Presenting with @wenyishang.bsky.social . We combine paratextual data and network analysis to examine how authors and stationers interacted to shape the genre identities of early modern English playbooks.

One important thing I’ve learned at #DH2026 in Korea is that it is absolutely imperative that you eat the kimchi at every meal

Really enjoying Kim Hyeon's reflections on the joy of learning, putting learning into practice, getting joy from that practice, then learning more. Informed by Confucius' Analects #DH2026

My poster is up at #DH2026 — come find me here tomorrow afternoon if you’d like to discuss this project that has occupied a large part of my life for the past two years! Everything about it was challenging—subject matter, methods, implementation 1/

Fun times ahead of #DH2026!

hasn't even been a day but Seoul is in the running for *coolest city*

Made it to airport, on my longggggg way to korea for #DH2026

is this not the best and coolest idea for an upper-division lit studies course?

Nothing is more pleasing to me than when my crackpot ideas actually come to fruition and become brilliant plans. Can’t say more right now, but Literary Philly is shaping up to be the coolest English class ever.

In recent years, I've begun to develop a phobia of flying. It's not so much the "up in the air" part, but a claustrophobia from the cramped nature of planes today. But I fly to South Korea this week, so I must bear it. Any tips on how to cope w/ the inevitable backaches & feelings of cramped dread?

I did it, I saw Odysseus. It was better than Oppenheimer but still had those Nolan-esque qualities I have come to dislike—the constant, blaring bass, the atemporal structure. Someone tell that man it’s okay for movies to be quiet and in chronological order sometimes

I want to be excited about the Odyssey movie, but after Nolan made that pile of hot garbage called Oppenheimer––and critics raved about it––I just feel suspicious, like it's a ruse.

A little tip for folks suffering the wildfire smoke: buy one of those square HVAC filters. Then duct tape it to a box fan and let the fan run. I can attest from my years in Washington state, when the smoke was heavy, that this DIY air filter works.
