This Friday I attended a full day conference Beyond Analogue: Current Graduate Research in Humanities Computing. See my Conference Report. Daniel O’Donnell (who gave a great paper) told me in conversation that he could see from the graduate research the emergence of a “school” of humanities computing at U of Alberta – that we have a commonality of issues and research practices around implementation, interface and visualization that distinguishes us. Could a sign of the maturity of the field be that different schools of approaches are emerging?
