Hi folks,
There is also "Digital Humanities" - an international conference that
varies in destination from year to year, looking at work which allows
people to undertake study in the arts, humanities, and heritage
sectors using digital means and methods. This year's conference:
http://www.dh2012.uni-hamburg.de/
Digital Resources in the Arts and Humanities is a UK conference which
should run next year - not happening this year due to the fact its
usual time slot clashes with the Olympics, amidst other issues.
A new conference called the Digital Humanities Congress is happening
in Sheffield this year in September.
