NYCDH Graduate Student Digital Project Awards 2016

This year, we received more high quality entries than ever before. The projects we selected for this year’s award range across a wide range of topics and employ a fascinating array of methods. Taken together, they show that digital humanities work among our graduate students in New York City is well-established and full of promise. Although we could only give out three cash prizes and three honorable mentions, NYCDH is dedicated to supporting the DH work of our graduate students by offering DH workshops and training sessions, as well as opportunities to meet and collaborate, throughout the year.

 

Will Fenton (Fordham University), “The Digital Paxton” First Prize – $1000
Lisa Tagliaferri (Graduate Center, CUNY), “Lyrical Mysticism: The Writing and Reception of Catherine of Siena” Second Place (tied) – $500
Patrick Smyth (Graduate Center, CUNY), Hannah Aizenman (Graduate Center, CUNY), Dr. Jill Bell Belli (NYC College and Technology; outreach and usability coordinator), “Futures Past Archive” Second Place (tied) – $500

These projects, which range across a wide range of topics and employ a fascinating array of methods, are representative of the very high quality of submissions we received for the competition. Taken together, they show that digital humanities work among our graduate students in New York City is robust and full of promise. Although we could only give out three cash prizes and two honorable mentions, NYCDH is dedicated to supporting the DH work of our graduate students by offering DH workshops and training sessions, as well as opportunities to meet and collaborate, throughout the year.

About the NYCDH Student Digital Award: First offered in 2014, the NYCDH graduate student awards are open to graduate students from the NYC metropolitan area who are pursuing DH projects. Applications are judged by a board selected from the NYCDH steering committee. Winning projects are selected based on intellectual contributions to the field, innovative uses of technology, and work plans that are clear and reasonable given the time and funding available.
