With Brio Vol.56 no.2 safely delivered, there aren’t any more big planned outputs from the Claimed From Stationers’ Hall network – and 2020 is the year for new grant applications. Should I change the name of this blog, or start a new one? My gut feeling is to stick with this one until a new grant is won! Digital humanities are likely to come into it somewhere along the line. One application was submitted right at the start of November, and now I must think about the next one.
Since our Bass Culture project was essentially a digital humanities project (resulting in hms.scot), the realm of digital humanities isn’t entirely alien to me. Nonetheless, on revisiting notes from a couple of meetings I attended last year, I realise there is terminology that I need to become more conversant with. If I want the technology to help with my next project, the least I can do is make sure I can talk the lingo!
