@copim’s Experimental Publishing group is organizing an #ExperimentalBooks online conference "Experimental Books – Re-imagining Scholarly Publishing", taking place on the 20/02, 09/03, & 13/03/2023.

I'll be responding to the keynotes (of whose work I'm a huge fan!) on 13/03 ✨ . Join us online:

https://experimentalbooks.pubpub.org/

"This three-part conference - including talks, roundtables, and workshops - will discuss alternative publishing options for the humanities by showcasing some of the experiments that are currently taking place in the realm of academic book publishing. It aims to inspire authors, publishers, technology developers and others, to (continue to) speculate on new collaborative futures for open humanities research and publication. It also aims to discuss how these book experiments could sit within more standardised or established workflows for print and online book production, dissemination, and preservation."
