CUNY DHI Lighting Talks Switch to Virtual Format

Today at 5:30 p.m. is our annual CUNY Digital Humanities Initiative Lightning Talk event. Originally, it was scheduled to be held as a hybrid event with in-person and remote presentations. However, we have had to make a last-minute decision to switch to an online format.

We hope that if you were planning to join us that you will continue to do so remotely. We will be sending out the Zoom link 30 minutes prior to the event, so if you had not already registered, you are able to do so until 5 p.m. tonight at https://cuny.is/dhi23-register.

Tonight’s event will be slightly less formal than it has been in the past, so if you have not had an opportunity to sign up to present but would like to do so, we can accommodate. You can either let us know when you register or reach out through a Zoom chat message to either Zach Lloyd or myself.

Again, apologies for the last minute change. You can see the original call that was posted to the CUNY DHI website and circulated through the Commons here: https://cunydhi.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2023/03/15/call-for-participation-dhi-lightning-talks-2023/.

We look forward to seeing you either tonight online or at future events.
