Re: [CODE4LIB] Speaking in Code summit, UVa Library Scholars' Lab

Salvete!

    Aedunno, it seemed like a pretty high bar for THATCamp, too. I applied 
anyway and they let me sneak in. :) I had no regrets. I felt very welcome there 
and there were some truly fascinating conversations with that slightly 
different group. I would anticipate a few of the same faces at the Speaking in 
Code summit. It's a wonderful campus in terms of aesthetics, as well.

    #justsayin apply and see if you get to go rather than self limiting and 
definitely disappointing yerself.

Cheers,
Brooke

  We're pleased to announce that applications are open for Speaking 
 in
  Code, a 2-day, NEH-funded symposium and summit to be held at the UVa
  Library Scholars' Lab in Charlottesville, Virginia this November 4th 
 and
  5th.
 
  http://codespeak.scholarslab.org/
 
  Speaking in Code will bring together a small cohort of 
 intermediate to
  advanced digital humanities software developers for two days of
  conversation and agenda-setting. Our goal will be to give voice to what is
  almost always tacitly expressed in DH development work: expert knowledge
  about the intellectual and interpretive dimensions of code-craft, and
  unspoken understandings about the relation of our labor and its products to
  ethics, scholarly method, and humanities theory.
 
  Over the course of two days, participants will:
 
  * reflect on and express, from developers' own points of view, what is
  particular to the humanities and of scholarly significance in DH software
  development products and practices;
 
  * and collaboratively devise an action-oriented agenda to bridge the gaps
  in critical vocabulary and discourse norms that can frequently distance
  creators of humanities platforms or tools from the scholars who use and
  critique them.
 
  In addition to Scholars' Lab staff (Jeremy Boggs, Wayne Graham, Eric
  Rochester, and Bethany Nowviskie), facilitators include Stephen Ramsay,
  William J. Turkel, Stéfan Sinclair, Hugh Cayless, and Tim Sherratt. A
  limited number of need-based travel bursaries are available to
  participants. The SLab particularly encourages and will prioritize
  participation of developers who are women, people of color, LGBTQ, or from
  other under-represented groups. See You Are Welcome Here for

  This will be the first focused meeting to address the implications of

  12th for best consideration.
