Imagining Digital Transformations in the Humanities

Seminar and lecture with Ian Bogost, the Ivan Allen College Distinguished Chair in Media Studies and professor of interactive computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology

As humanities departments and programs begin developing proposals in response to Dean Hu’s Digital Transformation initiative, we wanted to put on your calendar two upcoming events, featuring the work of Ian Bogost, the Ivan Allen College Distinguished Chair in Media Studies and professor of interactive computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology.  We hope these events will contribute to ongoing conversations about the intersections between the humanities, data analytics, and digital technologies and to planning for future collaborations.

Please RSVP below if you would like to attend one or both of these events.
