Thanks for your comment!

There are certainly instances we could point towards as covert aggression already––but also great organizations like HASTAC that are committed to keeping critical cultural analysis at the center of digital intellectual work. I hope we can continue to have more of the latter than the former, regardless of those in the more established DH community remain uninterested and/or defensive.

I hope it will not happen, but you may find in time that the welcoming attitude will be overwritten by covert or overt aggression, as critiques of the socially and politically static or regressive motives of some (not all) “DH” institution-building begin to take hold.

I think you have many allies (strong ones, if relatively quiet, measured in social media decibels), who will be following the conversation around #transformDH in solidarity.

Thank you for your comment––I’m excited to hear about your interest! I should be completely done with the diss by April and will be happy to share it informally then; if there is a part you especially want to read, I don’t mind sharing it now as work in progress (I have a draft now, but I’m making a lot of revisions; some chapters are more thoroughly done than others…) Eventually I hope to develop it further and publish it as a book, so we should continue to be in conversation. I’d like to hear more about your work––get in touch (alexislothian at gmail) if you like!

Hey! I’m amazed by your ideas for the dissertation. When is it gonna be ready? I’m researcher from Brazil and I’m getting into queer theory and cyberculture. I love your concepts. I’d also love for us to be in touch, so I could use you as a theoretical reference in my research project and dissertation.
