Reminded I blogged how to make a themed reading list as playing-card deck 🃏📚 Used my ZineBakery.com catalog to link to critical culture+tech zines that you can read free online, but you can use any selection of reads: literaturegeek.com/2023/06/29/t... (Was part of the #ACH2023 #DHmakes collab vest)

Finally finished the work I started during #ACH2023 as part of #DHmakes 😊 I had never embroidered this much so I am very proud of myself (it’s a tote bag)

3 interesting things attendees heard at @ach’s annual membership meeting (held at the recent awesome #ACH2023 conference):

1. Building on #ACH2023's momentum, there'll be a virtual #ACH2024 conference in Fall 2024.

ACH is coordinating w/the hybrid DH 2024 conference's local organizers to avoid overlap (e.g. submissions won't be due until after DH 2024 acceptances; different conference session formats) +

@tillgrallert @Jomla @mia Come to think of it, I've already scraped names from the program for a talk last week at #ACH2023. Should be easy to do the same for institutions then geocode for cities.

I learned that the Melbourne trees have emails from Deb Verhoeven (@bestqualitycrab on the bird site) during #ACH2023. I keep thinking about it. I've noticed that a lot of the trees in New Brunswick, NJ, have QR codes. Surely there's a project to be done here!

I'm grateful @hello & @kfitz for running the hcommons.social server that helped me enjoy #ACH2023! Running & moderating communities is a lot of hidden work, lots of potential stress—and crucial infrastructure.

One last bit of #ACH2023 #DHmakes joy from this morning's Work Adventure, where I donned (IRL) the collaborative vest and spun some purple fiber while we talked about making and ponies.

Where are we at the end of #ACH2023 #DHmakes? La Mars, Iowa (on the other side of the Cornfield of No Connectivity), with a bobbin and change of #spinning done today, some progress on the #knitting (pink shawl), and chipping away at the #enby hexagon sweater. It'll do for today.

We couldn't resist one last dip into the #ACH2023 virtual world to celebrate and dance to some FUNK! @EMGrumbach
