        Subject: Global DH Symposium - 2024 Recordings & Proceedings; Save the Date for 2025

Dear colleagues,

We are very pleased to share the recordings and proceedings from the 2024 Global
Digital Humanities Symposium, which took place from March 18-22.

  1.
Recordings of 32 presentations are available on YouTube:

  2.
Proceedings, including slides and recordings for 15 presentations are available:
https://msuglobaldh.hcommons.org/

I particularly want to share with this community, that the proceedings include
the work of Bill Hart-Davidson, who gave a keynote presentation on the Friday of
the Symposium,  “Mixing and Mastering Genre Signals: Generative AI, Writing, and
the Near Future of Writing Technologies.” A few weeks after the Symposium, Bill
suddenly passed away. In addition to giving a keynote presentation in 2024, A
Core Faculty member of DH@MSU, Bill served as a champion of the Symposium time
and time again over the past decade. He was a mentor and a model of scholarly
generosity, embodying the values that we strive to carry out in through our
activities.
The Global DH Symposium and the DH@MSU community deeply mourn the loss of Bill
and consider it an honor to have been one of the last stages on which he shared
his special blend of insight and humor.
Finally, in much happier news, please save the date for the 10th Global DH
Symposium, scheduled for April 2-8, 2025. We have begun planning and look
forward to releasing a CFP in August.
