Here's a write-up of my keynote from #DH2025, since academic publishing is slow and this was written for right now. roopikarisam.com/talks-cat/dh...

Slide with title Digital Humanities for a World Unmade, blue background with stylized images of a Dutch windmill, Leaning Tower of Pisa, Hagia Sofia, Big Ben, and the Singaporean lion.

@roopikarisam.bsky.social is giving a great keynote on multiple fronts, but I really appreciate her calling out the tendency towards going for the latest shiny new toy for analysis just bc it’s new versus solid, traditional methods that work and may be more practical and sustainable #DH2025

Removing content and moving to static sites remain popular solutions. "Those in charge of infrastructure are also determining, particularly in the long term, the scholarly worth of a project, whether it should remain online, and in what form."

Hearing from Jessica Otis at @rrchnm.bsky.social about their monumental effort to reduce technical debt and figure out what to do with several DH projects since 2014. Similar situation was faced by MITH and @kingsdigitallab.bsky.social among others. #dh2025

Really interesting session about teaching programming in 2025.
