What alternative histories are concealed by such a story? How might we imagine DH differently if we move beyond a focus on text toward multimodal expression and design? What audiences might such work reach? This talk will trace some of the alternate histories of DH\, paying particular attention to the visual and the political by engaging the work of feminists\, artists\, and scholars of color. \nMcPherson will also consider how scholarly evidence might be engaged anew through the aesthetic possibilities of the digital archive. By taking up the work of the Vectors Lab\, she will approach these questions through concrete examples of digital scholarship today. \n\n  \nCraig Dietrich is a digital artist\, scholar\, and educator. Deitrich is currently the Director of the Digital Humanities Research Studio at Claremont Colleges. \nTara McPherson is Associate Professor of Critical Studies at the University of Southern California’s School of Cinematic Arts. She is a core faculty member of the IMAP program\, USC’s innovative practice based-Ph.D.\, and also an affiliated faculty member in the American Studies and Ethnicity Department. Her research engages the cultural dimensions of media\, including the intersection of gender\, race\, affect and place. She has a particular interest in digital media. Here\, her research focuses on the digital humanities\, early software histories\, gender\, and race\, as well as upon the development of new tools and paradigms for digital publishing\, learning\, and authorship. \nCo-sponsored by the UCSC IGHERT Program\, Film + Digital Media\, HAVC\,  University Library\, Grad Division URL:https://thi.ucsc.edu/event/hands-on-digital-humanities-scalar-the-future-of-scholarly-publishing-3/ LOCATION:Stevenson Fireside Lounge\, Humanites 1 University of California\, Santa Cruz Cowell College\, Santa Cruz\, CA\, 95064\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://thi.ucsc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Scalar-poster-Final_11-17.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160503T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160503T180000 DTSTAMP:20260409T043222 CREATED:20160426T172844Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160426T172844Z UID:10006372-1462293000-1462298400@thi.ucsc.edu SUMMARY:Paul Lee: "The Greeks had a word for it: thumos" DESCRIPTION:Paul Lee studied philosophy at St. Olaf College and received his divinity degree and PhD from Harvard.

This workshop will serve as an introduction to Scalar\, a free\, open source authoring and publishing platform designed for scholars writing media-rich\, long-form\, born-digital scholarship. Developed by The Alliance for Networking Visual Culture at the University of Southern California\, Scalar allows scholars to assemble media from multiple sources and juxtapose that media with their own writing in a variety of ways; to annotate video\, audio\, images\, source code and text using the platform’s built-in media annotation tools; and to structure essay- and book-length works in ways that take advantage of the unique capabilities of digital writing\, including nested\, recursive\, and non-linear formats. The workshop will cover basic features of the platform\, including a review of existing Scalar books and a hands-on introduction to paths\, tags\, annotations and importing media. It will also cover more advanced topics including Scalar’s built-in visualizations\, annotating with media\, and a sprinkling of design theory by Craig Dietrich\, Scalar’s Information Design Director. \nThis event requires registration! | REGISTER NOW  \nCoffee will be available from 9:30 AM and lunch will be served at 12 PM for registered participants. \nCo-sponsored by the UCSC IGHERT Program\, Film + Digital Media\, HAVC\,  University Library\, Grad Division URL:https://thi.ucsc.edu/event/workshop-publishing-in-scalar-3/ LOCATION:Humanities 1\, Room 202 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://thi.ucsc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Scalar-poster-Final_11-17.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160504T121500 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160504T140000 DTSTAMP:20260409T043222 CREATED:20150612T215426Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150612T215426Z UID:10005120-1462364100-1462370400@thi.ucsc.edu SUMMARY:Donna V.

Brian’s history background inspired him to complete his degree in the medieval city of Göttingen\, Germany. \nBrian has continued his independent study of history after graduation\, studying in-depth his own genealogy\, Christianity\, Winston Churchill\, Abraham Lincoln\, and most recently Simon Bolivar. \nBrian’s talk\, “History! What is it good for?” will discuss how a background in history and the historical method is applied to the practice of law and everyday life. \n  URL:https://thi.ucsc.edu/event/undergraduate-history-showcase-3/ LOCATION:Santa Cruz\, CA\, 95064\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/gif:https://thi.ucsc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/showcase2016_1080.gif END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160505T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160505T180000 DTSTAMP:20260409T043222 CREATED:20160107T221138Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160107T221138Z UID:10005201-1462464000-1462471200@thi.ucsc.edu SUMMARY:Christina Schwenkel - Designing the Rational City: Gender and the 'Housing Question' Revisited in Late Socialist Vietnam DESCRIPTION:Christina Schwenkel\, Professor of Anthropology\, UC Riverside \nProfessor Schwenkel’s work addresses transnationalism\, historical memory\, aesthetics and visual culture in Vietnam.  Her book\, “The American War in Contemporary Vietnam: Transnational Remembrance and Representation (2009) examines encounters between U.S. and Vietnamese recollections and representations of the war\, and seeks to define and maintain particular visions of historical truth\, knowledge and objectivity.

Odysseus is famous for his mētis\, exactly the kind of practical reasoning upon which improvisation depends\, and close readings of his encounters abroad with the Cyclops and at home with Eumaeus\, Telemachus\, Penelope\, and Laertes will show that Odysseus’ lies and acts of deception do not temporarily disguise his true identity but rather enable him to construct himself anew upon his return. \nCarol Dougherty is Professor of Classical Studies and Margaret E. Deffenbaugh and LeRoy T. Carlson Professor in Comparative Literature at Wellesley College. She has published numerous books and articles on the literature and cultural history of archaic and classical Greece and is currently working on a book on Homecomings and Housekeepings in Classical and Contemporary Literature.

In 2014 she was awarded the Artist Award by the Melbourne Art Foundation’s Awards for the Visual Arts. She is well known for her invented\, hybrid creatures which explore the end limits of evolution\, both technological and biological. These creatures evoke the biotechnology and digital technologies that are challenging the boundaries of humanity. \nAs Donna Haraway writes\, “Piccinini is a compelling story teller in the radical experimental lineage of feminist science fiction. In a sf sense\, Piccinini’s objects are replete with narrative speculative fabulation. Her visual and sculptural art is about worlding; i.e.\, “naturaltechnical” worlds at stake\, worlds needy for care and response\, worlds full of unsettling but oddly familiar critters who turn out to be simultaneously near kin and alien colonists.” \nDonna Haraway is a Distinguished Professor Emerita in the History of Consciousness and Feminist Studies Departments at UC Santa Cruz. She is a prominent scholar in the field of science and technology studies and the author of numerous books and essays that bring together questions of science and feminism\, such as A Cyborg Manifesto: Science\, Technology\, and Socialist-Feminism in the Late Twentieth Century (1985) and Situated Knowledges: The Science Question in Feminism and the Privilege of Partial Perspective (1988). In September 2000\, Haraway was awarded the highest honor given by the Society for Social Studies of Science\, the J.D. Bernal Prize\, for lifetime contributions to the field.
