@EricaTilse Thank you so much Erica! Your project was so powerful! I'm glad you liked @Briggs music, he's one of the reasons why I research what I do 😎

So brilliant to showcase all the deadly work everyone in the #ArtsMResDigital program has been creating. It's honestly so inspiring to see what our future research talent is capable of and the social issues they want to address 🥲

@KatFletcher00 Thank you!! Your project was brilliant and your critique demonstrated how academia is often a post-colonising rather decolonial space!

Great to start workshopping ways to protect and manage our data this week. My messy file names won't be of any use throughout my thesis. Time to get organised and develop a data management plan #ArtsMResDigital

Like all things, the digital humanities is embedded with power relations that reinforce hegemonic ideology. Taking into consideration the intersectionality of gender, sexuality, race and ethnicity is essential in order to privilege all voices in digital research #ArtsMResDigital

How do we think critically about the idea of digital neutrality? The fact that whiteness prevails as a normative function in AI detection is in itself an indication of how frontier technology can perpetuate structural racism #ArtsMResDigital

While open source data is a useful tool to minimise gatekeeping knowledge we need to be critical of its ethical boundaries. Indigenous data sovereignty is central to this conversation. Community must have ownership over our data to avoid digital colonisation. #ArtsMresDigital

As a Koori digital human rights defender I joined @marieclaireau #ItsTime campaign to highlight the importance of a #voicetoparliament in the fourth industrial revolution. We need #FirstPeoples checks & balances in the era of #automation #AI #ar #mr #IoT #4IR #Accountability

Digital humanities projects are leading the way in making research more accessible and engaging to the broader public. Learning about how research can harness its digital capabilities to privilege historically marginalised voices in research is important! #ArtsMresDigital

Fascinating to learn about Altmetrics as a tool to measure the social impact of your research topic across varying social media platforms and audiences outside of the academic world! Evaluating impact across diverse communities is what makes research powerful #ArtsMResDigital
