Screenshot of graphic that says "ESSAYS ON CRAFT AND DISABILITY Write for us. OPEN UNTIL 01 APRIL 2026 We are now commissioning texts for a small-format, collaborative publication exploring the intersection of craft practices and disability - challenging dominant narratives of ability, productivity and inheritance in craft." -Ache & Common Threads Press
Common Threads Press call for nonfic writing+art on craft+disability: "often romanticised as therapeutic, relaxing, universal, but whose hands, bodies, rhythms are centered? Disability offers radical reimaginings of craft..." (pays you $200) www.commonthreadspress.co.uk/pages/submis... #DHmakes
I wrote up the talk I gave at CESTA a couple weeks ago, on how we're overdue on changing the narrative about what digital humanities prepares students for. It's not fallback jobs in tech, it's getting involved in your community in moments of crisis. And craft helps build those skills. #DHmakes

el chiste se cuenta solo 😂
Bad Bunny’s performance began in the plantation, featured broken electric poles, and ended by centering a hemispheric understanding of “América”—among many other things—and some Anglo journalists are like “his performance wasn’t political.”
This is why we need to be telling our stories.
trial and error is the DH way! they still look really pretty ✨💪
If there are scholarly ethics concerns with asking an LLM to write a journal article, those same concerns should apply to asking an LLM to write the code that the article is about.
My #DHmakes sleep viz is framed/ready for action, thx to my partner’s woodworking skills! I’m using this in a #DigitalHumanities class where students will create a personalized dataset to play w in a range of tools. They’ll encounter friction/“failure” trying to get their data to work in some tools.

i want to drink a shot every time someone at an academic/alt-ac career panel says the fellowship that started their career was terminated last year.
maybe that way i'll finally have a good take away from the current job market 🥴

better mentorship structures, financial support, and sustainable opportunities for interdisciplinary research ⚡️ this conversation truly resonates with the current needs of PhDs.

Enormous gratitude to our colleagues on the selection committee at the MLA for their fine taste!
Seriously tho, I never in a million years expected my translation to receive a mention or a prize. Feeling grateful 😊

Oh my word. 😍 @jenniferisasi.bsky.social has completely outdone herself with this incredible Textile Makerspace / YarnLab Lego set. Sewing machine! Knitting needles! Yarn! Dr Cheese Bones with DH-WoGeM hat! And Lego me with, honestly, a pretty realistic look on my face. #DHmakes
I channeled my anxiety this year into frantically blogging at a pace that was both fruitful and unsustainable. I’m going to chill out for the next few weeks while I try to wrap up work on this book manuscript. But here are a few of my favorite posts this year from the 45 (!?) that I put out.
here's a blog of trying to heal some of my own grad school trauma, and hopefully others, through the Scholars' Lab internship~
cannot wait to read this 😍

. @sararribas.bsky.social's String Data Art exhibit represents ~2 years of work, starting w/physical archival research; noticing patterns of social artistic relationships around a major Flamenco event in Spain in 1922. Towards public humanities, how to make sense of large amount of people+info? +
We also installed a new poster in @scholarslab.bsky.social (by @lmmiller.bsky.social & me) explaining the data + #DHmakes art that's been growing in our space & encouraging folks inspired by these to come chat w/us about how they might explore or share their own interests using digital+craft methods
