We’ve extended the deadline for ACH2024 to May 31. The Association for Computers and the Humanities seeks proposals for ACH 2024, our virtual conference, to be held online November 6-8, 2024. We welcome a broad range of topics, with a particular emphasis on social justice in multiple contexts: anti-racist work, Indigenous studies, cultural and critical ethnic studies, intersectional feminism, postcolonial and decolonial studies, disability studies, and queer studies. We also prioritize proposals that explicitly address multilingualism in digital humanities, which is itself a matter of social justice.
Areas of digital humanities scholarship that are relevant to the conference include but are not limited to:
AI and its consequences
Digital and computational approaches to humanistic research and pedagogy
Digital cultural heritage
Digital surveillance
Environmental humanities & climate justice
Digital humanities tools and infrastructures
Digital librarianship
Digital media, art, literature, history, music, film, and games
Digital public humanities
Humanistic and ethical approaches to data science and data visualization
Humanistic research on digital objects and cultures
Humanities knowledge infrastructures
Labor and organization in digital humanities
Physical computing

Use of digital technologies to write, publish, and review scholarship
Submission types include: papers (12-15 minutes), lightning talks (5 minutes), posters, panels (1 hour and 15 minutes), roundtables (1 hour and 15 minutes), installations and performances, and alternate formats (variable length).
