Faculty Research Group

The faculty research group at San Diego State University has served as the central hub for the Digital Humanities Initiative at SDSU. Faculty and staff from across campus meet once-a-month (and over lunch!) to discuss readings in the field of digital humanities. Learning together, we create community around intellectual conversation and a cohort dedicated to exploring how traditional humanities matter in and for our digital world.

Past readings have included:

• Anne Burdick, Johanna Drucker, Peter Lunenfeld, Todd Presner and Jeffrey Schnapp’s Digital_Humanities
• Franco Moretti’s “Conjectures on World Literature”
• Johanna Drucker’s Graphesis: Visual Forms of Knowledge Production
• La paperson’s A Third University is Possible
• Lisa Parks and Nicole Starosielski (eds.), Signal Traffic: Critical Studies of Media Infrastructure
• Mark C. Marino’s “Critical Code Studies”
• Nick Montfort and Ian Bogost’s Racing the Beam: The Atari Video Computer System
• Safiya Umoja Noble's Algorithms of Oppression: How Search Engines Reinforce Racism
• Essays from Digital Humanities Quarterly
• Essays from Debates in the Digital Humanities
