A2 - Hacking the Archive

10:15 AM - 11:15 AM

Presidential Room 2


When are notes in the margins of a library book vandalism, and when does such previously "unauthorized" activity pass into the archive as a shared trace, itself worthy of study and preservation? This panel focuses on the changing relationships between teaching, research, and preservation -- reconfigured by the affordances of emerging technology and in the context of the rapidly developing field of digital humanities.

Scheduled Panelists

Dennis Tenen, Assistant Professor of Digital Humanities and New Media Studies
Mark Phillipson, Interim Director, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Teaching Center
