Ways of sitting with loss…
I study the way we count dead people. I also make art in order to help people experience mass casualty events differently. Usually this is about the past. For the last several years I’ve been interested in mourning braids, a tradition that has some roots in Victorian England, but also more contemporary examples like the stunning work of Nene Humphrey. I recognized last week, during our first week of “social […]
An AI/Machine Behavior Working and Angry Bibliography
Regular readers will know that I tend to respond to exclusionary, “field-defining” statements with bibliographies designed to highlight the work of people who have long been working on a particular topic. Below is the working document pulled from the google doc where it was created. If you’d like to add to the bibliography, please feel free to do so. This #AngryBibl was initiated by me and Nikki Stevens and published […]
Sex and Numbers: Pleasure, Reproduction, and Digital Biopolitics
Below you’ll find the recorded talk that I offered for my scheduled plenary at the 2019 Digital Humanities Summer Institute. Due to back injuries (discussed in the beginning of the talk), I was not able to present in person. Instead the DHSI team played this recorded talk. I virtually attended on twitter as well to make it possible to have some Q&A. I’ve included the text of the talk at […]

Justice and Digital Archives: A Working Bibliography
If we can’t see the ethical stakes (+ power relations) in digital archives we are going to do violence. Do better. Born of frustration and still very much a work in progress (gotta get the kids to school)…I have much more to include and I welcome your suggestions via twitter @profwernimont #justDigitalArchives or my ASU .edu email.

Suggestive…by way of casual counter-tracking
Yesterday friend and fellow traveller in/on/around digital cultures Alexandra Juhasz posted #hardtruth #67 “Watch Those Monetizing Their Watching From the Shadows”, part of her series of 100 #hardtruths about fake news, digital culture, and the many challenges of the first 100 days of #45. To help build the post, I shared with Alex screenshots of my morning browsing – reading the news, going to the bank, fact-checking — with two […]

CFP: GLAM+Universities on Migration
I’m pleased to be able to share the CFP below as part of an effort to develop the infrastructures of university and GLAM (galleries, libraries, archives, and museums) to comment on issues of migration. This is a seed project funded by the PLuS Alliance and will feature one project in conjunction with ASU (including the Nexus Lab). We’ll also be working on a much larger grant proposal on this topic […]
