Fascinating Symploke article by @ashleybyock on "the decapitory logic of slavery": https://t.co/vT3VsT8BDH

a major question i’d been pondering then heard @miriamkp raise at #2019ASA is still rattling in my skull: how will dh and other humanists ensure that the rise of data science programs on our campuses gains critical scaffolding ... in a language college admin can understand?

[Christopher Newfield @cnewf]

historically, the teaching curriculum was one thing college faculty assumed they controlled, free of administrative reach-in. That was never entirely true, but it was ended at many places by ed-tech & the Lynne Cheney fueled trustee empowerment movement of the last 20 years

@lgmerchant -- Fascinating approach to teaching an Intro to DH course by asking students to create new artifact object in the Nebraska Innovation Studio that explores a visual rhetoric of Nebraska & narrating this in relation to motivation and process #2019ASA #dhdp

@lgmerchant Digital Humanities is: "An innovative interruption to the consumption and dissemination of knowledge and knowledge production" #ASA2019 #dhdp

@rosieuyola presenting on https://t.co/8NXF8VjEwu -- "Organizing technology away from the profit motive" by creating a collaborative space and support students as they create knowledge #2019ASA #dhdp

@Anndretta talks about the difficulty of peaceful protest to gain media coverage -- #blackbrunch movement significantly co-opted by white supremacist violent Twitter responses, only then gaining media coverage. Moving and distressing. #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

Digital protest -- @Anndretta notes that Twitter changed its algorithms to notably squelch the effectiveness of Twitter as a vehicle for protest #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

@Anndretta Digital protest: Issues that intersect corporate interests and capitalist endeavors might be more likely to get mainstream coverage and at a faster rate than other issues #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

@Anndretta Digital protest: An ambiguous agenda leaves room for reframing and racialized hostility #asa2019 #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

@Anndretta -- Social media advantages can be combined with more traditional protest tactics to expedite or serve the purpose of mainstream media coverage #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

@ajsaab I so deeply relate to this question of administrative data and the mandate to utilize data. I think the corollary is that institutions believe that measurables have more inherent value than more ineffable forms of information. #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

Institutional data -- who determines, by what measures, and what happens when you start editing out information related to institutional/system inequities? #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

What gets edited out? Material labor, all the outliers that don't fit the initial framework's telos, thusly arriving at a predictable outcome. How are decisions made in higher ed -- what can this tell us about how data operate institutionalized. @ajsaab #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

@lizlosh Thusly -- data rescue as a form of care. "If the government has a right to be forgotten that the citizens do not have . . . this should be a driver for activism" #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

@lizlosh -- citing e-governance and data rescue of civic numeracy from obama admin -- Federal Agency Dataset Adoption project https://t.co/EEvTyady1F #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

@footnotesrising @agrotke Yes, thank you!

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

So what is lost in the disparity between HRC & DT? Reports, global military deployment info, etc: missing, and marked by "error" message. @lizlosh #2019ASA #dhdp

[Ashley Byock @ashbydyl]

@lizlosh -- Digital governance -- somehow, Trump's team was unable to make the new White House website during the 72 days of transition. Trump's problem: "They didn't expect to win." Meanwhile, HRC's proto site is @loc #2019ASA #dhdp
