      Join us on the campus of Michigan State University to celebrate and

      Performance! We welcome sessions that address, exemplify, and
      interrogate the interdisciplinary nature of DH work. HASTAC 2015
      challenges participants to consider how the interplay of science,
      technology, social sciences, humanities, and arts are producing new
      forms of knowledge, disrupting older forms, challenging or reifying
      power relationships, among other possibilities. Themes addressed by the
      conference include:

      – the changing nature of humanities research and scholarship
      – indigenous culture, decolonial and post-colonial theory and technology
      – technology and education
      – ­open learning, peer learning, and issues of access, equity for
      primary and/or higher education
      – communication of knowledge, publishing, and intellectual property
      – digital cultural heritage and hegemony
      – crowd dynamics, global outreach, and social media
      – technology and social identity and roles: gender, race, and other
      identities
      – digital animation and other visualization media arts and sciences
      – games and gaming, including for learning
      – community development including the importance of art and culture
      districts
      – mobile technologies, activity streams, and experience design
      – cognitive and other dimensions of creativity, innovation, and
      scholarship

      HASTAC 2015 will include plenary addresses, panel presentations
