Abstract: Digital scholarly editions are one of the oldest and most
prolific forms of output of digital humanities projects, and arguably
oneof the most prolific. However, like many digital outputs, they also
have a cost that is often not only financial; but it may alsoinclude the
ability to access institutional infrastructure.

The principles of low tech and minimal computing have informed new ways
of undertaking digital humanities projects, focusing on use of open
technologies and ownership of data and code.

In this talk I discuss how this open, low tech and minimal approach can
be a solution for the development of digital scholarly editing projects
in the Global South, where access to infrastructure such as web hosting
or even reliable and affordable Internet access is limited, but I also
highlight the possibilities for a low-infrastructure future of the
"global" digital edition.


         Bio: Dr Gimena del Rio Riande is Associate Researcher at the
         /Instituto de Investigaciones Bibliográficas y Crítica
         Textual/at CONICET, Argentina. She holds a MA and Summa Cum
         Laude PhD in Romance Philology (Universidad Complutense de
         Madrid). Among her many academic activities, she serves as
         director of theLaboratorio de Humanidades Digitales  (HD LAB
         <http://hdlab.space/>)at CONICET and the first Postgraduate
         training in Digital Humanities in Argentina (UCES). She is also
         an elected member of the board of directors at the Text Encoding
         Initiative Consortium and at theAsociación Argentina de
         Humanidades Digitales <http://aahd.net.ar/>.
