Ryan CordellExcited to receive official word that @kmh2008, one of my new students @stnorbert, will be a #HASTAC Scholar this year
First meeting with the two #hastac scholars here @stnorbert-figuring out what they'll be working on for the program
Sean Purcell (he/him)I finally got around to scanning a series of printed slides (okay, decal-ed slides) that I produced as an art project last spring. (Shout out to the wonderful work of the Creative Futures #HASTAC group, who let me show it last June.) IU has some archival quality scanners, so I got these HUGE scans of each of the slides.
The idea was to overlap two images in different colors (Red and blue) to think about how aspects of medicine which are shown to the public (happy people living in sanatoria) are interlinked with the really awful extractive practices of scientific medicine. The material I used were related to tuberculosis around 1900.
These I love because both images kind of get lost in a kind of abstraction.
I'm working on some revisions to a syllabus for IU's #HASTAC scholars. Many of them do not get much training in #DH, and so my colleagues and I have been trying to figure out ways to foreground some discussions in the field.
I came across an excellent article by Daniel Allington, Sarah Brouillette, and David Golumbia which tries to tease out some of the implicit ideological contestations of the field. It's worth a read.

Kathleen FitzpatrickAs I attempt to embody the kinds of governance I'd most like to see in higher education, I gravitate toward radical #transparency. I share work-in-progress early and often. And as a result you're likely to hear a lot from me about how things are going here and particularly about what happened when things go wrong.
Thanks for being part of this new community, and thanks for bearing with us as we learn to fly the plane in mid-air!
*"Something like": We know we had around 31,000 registered users before we onboarded #HASTAC. HASTAC brought with it about 19,000 users who had accounts on their old servers. Some number of those are likely duplicates that didn't get caught in the process. And until HASTAC users actually log in at HCommons, I'm a little uncomfortable counting them. But the number that comes up when we check to see how many members we have is over 50K, so until we get a more accurate count I'm going with it.
Knowledge CommonsOur team is hugely grateful to the #HASTAC crew for all their support and enthusiasm as we invest together in our vision of the future of scholarly work. Look out for more soon on how this partnership came together and our big plans for the future!
Even better: #HASTAC is open to all! Existing Humanities Commons members and all interested scholars are welcome to join. Learn more and get involved here: https://hastac.hcommons.org/membership/
We are beyond thrilled to officially launch #HASTAC Commons and welcome HASTAC into our network of participating organizations. With 20 years’ experience connecting scholars across disciplines, we couldn’t think of a better partner and collaborator. Check out the new site at https://hastac.hcommons.org/
