Call for Participation: DHI Lightning Talks Fall 2023

Are you working on a digital humanities project or query at CUNY? Then sign up to present your digital humanities project, research, or questions with students, faculty, and staff from across CUNY’s campuses. 

What: 9th Annual CUNY Digital Humanities Initiative Lightning Talks

When: Tuesday, November 14th 2023

Time: 5:00pm – 7:00pm

Where: Hybrid: Graduate Center Segal Theatre (1F) / Zoom

How to participate: In-person or synchronous Zoom options available

Lightning talks are informal, 3-minute / 3-slide presentations that offer a brief insight into your digital humanities project, research, or question. Projects at any stage–whether just beginning, in-development, or completed–are welcome! The audience includes a diverse community of engaged CUNY students and colleagues who are eager to hear about your project and offer feedback. 

As a presenter, you will have the option to either: 1) present live over Zoom or 2) join us in the Graduate Center’s Segal Theater (1F) to present in-person. We encourage you to participate in whichever way you feel most comfortable. For either option, please submit your slides by Tuesday, November 7th so we can add them to the event slide deck. Slides will be made available after the event on our CUNY DHI blog. 

We welcome first-time presenters, as well as those who have participated in past CUNY DHI Lightning Talks. Learn more about some projects and past presentations on the CUNY DHI website.

Following presentations, participants and attendees will have an opportunity to socialize and ask questions in a general discussion.

This event is free and open to all CUNY students, faculty, and staff.
