Direct links to each day: Thursday | Friday | Saturday | Sunday
It’s Kzoo time again! I am continuing in my tradition of compiling digital humanities, digitally inflected, and DH-adjacent sessions, papers, and activities into one handy list. The total so far is 40 41 sessions that are either fully within this definition of digital or include at least one paper that is. (Compare this list and total with the 38 from 2018, 35 from 2017, 38 from 2016 and the 26 from 2015.)
The list includes the session number, room location, session title, paper title(s) and speaker(s). I will also add speakers’ Twitter handles as requested.
The session number is structured like #s38 as a reminder that if you are tweeting during a session, you should use both the conference hashtag (#kzoo2019) AND the session hashtag (e.g. #s38). Following this protocol helps people follow particular sessions remotely.
The conference website with the full pdf of sessions is available here. Tweet along with@KzoolCMS using the hashtag #kzoo2019 [not #kzoo19]. Kzoo’s social media policy is available here.
Have a great Kzoo!
I am certain there are papers and sessions that I missed, and there may be a name misspelling in there. Please leave a comment with a correction or an addition.
