Post-Digital Scholar Conference

Long live new media! For two days, publishers, researchers, programmers, designers, artists, and entrepreneurs discuss how research and publishing in the humanities has changed over the past decade. The conference explores new tools for gathering knowledge, examines platforms for multimedia publishing, or collaborative writing experiments. Participants focus on the interplay between pixels and print, and discuss open and closed modes of knowledge, in order to seek out what this elusive thing could be: post-digital knowledge.
