All of the Digital Classicist London seminars will be released in both video and audio versions, along with the slides, for anyone who missed the seminar in person and wants to join in the conversation. The seminars are also often live-tweeted under the #DigiClass hashtag. You can subscribe to the video and audio at the DC podcast: <http://www.digitalclassicist.org/wip/seminar.xml> to receive alerts whenever there are updates.
