CFP: BORN DIGITAL HERITAGE NOW
#BDCH23 - https://aama.net.au/conference/ <https://aama.net.au/conference/>
Thursday, November 30th – Friday, December 1st, 2023
#BDCH23 is the third iteration of the Born Digital Cultural Heritage
conference series. The first and second iterations – in 2014 and 2022 –
brought together academics and practitioners from across the world to
consider issues in the field of born digital heritage, from a range of
disciplinary perspectives. A notable feature of this conference series
has been the deliberate attempt to establish dialogue between those
working in different professional fields. We recognise that born digital
heritage reaches into all disciplines and that, if we want to make
progress on the challenges of preserving born digital heritage, it takes
people from a range of disciplines and professions working together.
Therefore, we seek to break down professional silos and other barriers
that inhibit the discussion and sharing of questions, knowledge and know
how to address common challenges that we all face when researching,
preserving and accessing different forms of born digital cultural heritage.
BDCH#23 will consider where born digital cultural heritage is at now.
What are we making progress on and what are the urgent challenges? How
are we going to safeguard our digital heritage for future generations?
For this event, we aim to expand the fields of discussions to include
architecture and design and extend the focus on digital games and media
arts to include websites, networking and other relevant domains. The
challenges of preserving digital cultural heritage aren’t limited to
legacy technologies, of course, but also affect contemporary platforms
such as apps, VR, AR, etc.
BDCH#23 will be a hybrid conference held at the Australian Centre for
the Moving Image in Melbourne and online via zoom.

Subject: CFP: Web/Comics at ACM Hypertext 2023, Rome
Dear Willard, all,
With apologies for cross posting.
Web/Comics 2023 is the first in a new workshop series for the ACM Hypertext
conference <https://ht.acm.org/ht2023/>. The Web/Comics workshop focuses on
the transformation of the comics medium enacted by hypertext through the
emergence of webcomics, or “graphic sequential narratives that are created,
published, and read on-line".
The workshop will be held in person in conjunction with the Hypertext 2023
conference, 4-8 September, at the Biblioteca Hertziana, Rome.
