[After Dinner Conversation @AfterDinnerCon]

"Go into the arts. I'm not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something."

~Kurt Vonnegut

Enjoyed papers & discussion for Session 3: Platforms, Methods, and Infrastructure at #DHSI22 today. Appreciated @ProfSuchu's call for "reparative design" or "design for justice" + the panel's focus on epistemic injustices in DH. I spoke re the "wins" + "woes" of @WemloTweets.

Wonderful news about a "new open-access research tool! Women Writers: Intertextual Networks is the result of a three-year project focusing on intertextuality in early women’s writing."

Very many thanks to all at @bodleianlibs (especially Mike Webb in Special Collections, and Kate and Moira in Events) who helped retrace the footsteps of Johan and Cornelis de Witt on their visit to the Library in 1647.
