HumaniTech® is a link--both hands-on and intellectual--that connects Humanities faculty and graduate students with the discussion, incorporation, and facilitation of technology in teaching and research. Our goals are to encourage discussion, exploration, and implementation of technology in teaching and research through workshops, discussions, and colloquia. We build connections across disciplines through a critical exploration of the interplay between Humanities research and technology. Visit our website at http://www.humanities.uci.edu/humanitech/

http://www.humanities.uci.edu/humanitech/multimedia/writing/0.1-Cohen.mp3UCI HumaniTechUCI HumaniTechThe Future of Writing is a two-day conference designed to bring together scholars from both across the UC system and other universities and a cadre of nationally recognized experts to explore how the new communications technologies, particularly the Internet, are challenging previous conceptions of what “writing” is. Through a range of panels, demonstrations, and an art exhibit, participants will consider the following: How are new communications technologies changing the way people "compose," "write," and "author"? How do collaborative writing spaces and social networking challenge the concepts of “text” and “author”? And how
are emerging emphases on visual literacies shifting what we think of as writing?
Convening a group of scholars to consider such questions should productively impact the work of individual scholars, promote cross-campus collaboration, and raise the level of university awareness about the effects of new technologies on writing.

"Organic Books"
Books have played a very significant role in advancement of civilization for a long time. The current form of book has been evolving for more than 2000 years. Wikipedia says “A book is a collection of paper, parchment or other material with text, pictures, or both written on them, bound together along one edge, usually within covers.” Advances in technology are resulting in disruptive changes to the form of book that we all have so dearly loved, admired, and worshipped. From a physical, well defined, solid form, it seems to be evolving into an organic, live, and amorphous form in which depending on the context and person it may adopt different forms. This change is already here and we have already started using it. This new form of book offers exciting possibilities – interactivity, multimodal, and evolving books that will cover a topic of interest in richer and more complete way.

“From Text to Web: Mobile Social Media and the Reinvention of Writing”
The emerging sociotechnical ecosystem of billons of cameraphones around the world is enabling new forms of “writing” which embody and extend poststructuralist conceptions of “text”. By recording and correlating a variety of explicit and implicit human behaviors that were heretofore invisible and impermanent, networked mobile media computing will redefine what we think of as language, writing, the book, text, and the historical record. In a world where explicit and implicit human activity on the scale of billions of people (their presence, attention, and relationships, and their media production, reception, description, and sharing) can be computationally represented, processed, and visualized, we are creating a new collectively authored and read “book of life”—a text which in the words of Roland Barthes is a “social space which coincides only with a practice of writing.MARC DAVIS, Social Media Guru, Yahoo!

"If Books Are History, How Can The Future Have A Past?"
In one sense books are history because as a medium for expressing ideas and adding to our culture's heritage the Web offers far more to both creators and readers. And in another sense, books are history because for a long time they have been the most survivable form in which today's knowledge can be transmitted to future readers. Books are a robust and easy-to-store package filled with a remarkably durable and somewhat tamper-proof storage medium that is easy to replicate and distribute. Bits are alarmingly vulnerable to a far wider range of threats than books. What are these threats and vulnerabilities, what is being done to defend against them, and how well are the defenses likely to work?

"The User-Interface Theory of Perception: Implications for the Evolution of Text and Image"
This talk is a highly illustrated and accessible introduction to human visual intelligence, informed by the latest breakthroughs in vision research. Perhaps the most surprising insight that has emerged from vision research is this: Vision is not merely a matter of passive perception, it is an intelligent process of active construction. What you see is, invariably, what your visual intelligence constructs. Just as scientists intelligently construct useful theories based on experimental evidence, so your visual system intelligently constructs useful visual worlds based on images at the eyes. The main difference is that the constructions of scientists are done consciously, but those of your visual intelligence are done, for the most part, unconsciously.DONALD D.

In a cartoon drawn by Richard Jolley, two American tourists are seen viewing the BayeuxTapestry in a museum, and the husband remarks to his wife “The storyboard was great . . .why did they never make the movie?” The punchline depends, of course, on our appreciating the differences between the Tapestry and film, high French fine arts culture and low American film culture, naive and knowing viewers, the past and the present. The tourists are far from being alone, however, in comparing the Tapestry to modern visual media. Scholars have frequently drawn analogies between the Bayeux Tapestry and animated cartoon, storyboard, screenplay, silent film, sound film, and digital hypertext and even hypertextile.”RICHARD BURT, Professor of English, University of Florida

Scholars have frequently drawn analogies between the Bayeux Tapestry and animated cartoon, storyboard, screenplay, silent film, sound film, and digital hypertext and even hypertextile.”Wed, 22 Oct 2008 11:54:50 GMT00:00:00http://www.humanities.uci.edu/humanitech/multimedia/Text&Image2-6.mp3no02/01/07 - Text & Image Conference - 22 Introduction to Visual Worlds (Peter Krapp)

"The Real Stuff: Why Original Artifacts Still Matter
Despite the importance of widespread digitization of rare books, manuscripts, photographs, and other primary source materials found in libraries and archives in order to vastly improve ease of access to these materials, public collections of the "real stuff" remain critical for study and research in the Humanities. The arguments include the unfeasibility of digitizing all such materials; the significance of originals as objects of research in and of themselves; the power they hold to inspire students toward their own research, and the importance of attracting donors of privately-held materials in order to include them in the cadre of individuals who are committed to preserving our cultural heritage and making it publicly available.

During 2006, the University of California Libraries became contributors and partners in two significant mass digitization projects: the Open Content Alliance (OCA) and Google Book Search. Supporting the University's educational mission, these digitization projects will greatly expand our ability to give scholars and the public access to the kinds of information and ideas that drive scholarly innovation, public knowledge and discourse. This paper will investigate the potential impact of mass digitization projects on users and the concrete realities facing libraries managing these efforts. The academic enterprise is primarily about discovery, and mass digitization is one of many catalysts fundamentally changing in how information is discovered and delivered to users.

Exploring the role of materiality and typographic form in the construction of Literature and Knowledge, this presentation will look at three different projects in which images of texts serve as both writing strategy and historical record:
In the experimental text-dictionary, Wörterbuch der Fackel: Redensarten, the lexicographic functions of the dictionary are arranged around a "spine" of images from the pages of Karl Kraus's journal Die Fackel. In order to maintain the semantic integrity of Kraus's unique form of media critique, which relied on precise graphical arrangement, it was necessary to excerpt not only his words but their typographic form as well.

"Scripting the Image: Walter Benjamin's 'Seagulls'"
The Image in Walter Benjamin's writings takes on a role that is somewhat unusual in critical prose, but very familiar in poetry: instead of illustrating or elucidating, in the manner of a perception, it interrupts, confounds and complicates the discursive flow. After a brief discussion of the relation of image to concept and constellation in Benjamin's work, one very striking verbal image will be explored: that of sea-gulls; their circular, recurrent flight sets the scene--or scenario--in which the observer plays an enigmatic but perhaps decisive part.

By combining histories of aesthetics, sexuality and material culture with cutting edge technological methodologies, "America the Beautiful" seeks to answer questions about the impact of attraction, sensation and desire before the nineteenth-centuWed, 22 Oct 2008 09:44:42 GMT00:00:00http://www.humanities.uci.edu/humanitech/multimedia/Text&Image1-4.mp3no02/01/07 - Text & Image Conference - 03 Seeing History (Edward L.

The last few decades have presented us with new ways to make sense of our world. Novel technologies of data gathering and representation have suddenly augmented our ability to comprehend the world and our place in it, enabling us to see patterns locked away in numbers, texts, and landscapes. The news of the day increasingly comes to us in the form of graphics and maps. Geography has been revolutionized by satellites, global positioning systems, and geographic information systems; visualization has become a staple on computers, television screens, and the dashboards of cars.

My research and teaching interests focus on the history of U.S. economic and cultural expansion from the late nineteenth century to the present. I am also interested in U.S. foreign policy, especially as it assisted the remarkable expansionism that turned the United States into a global superpower. Two of my books, Spreading the American Dream: American Economic and Cultural Expansion, 1890-1945 and Financial Missionaries to the World: The Politics and Culture of Dollar Diplomacy, 1900-1930 deal with this concern.
Within the broad area that includes the history of U.S. international policies and Americans’ various relationships to people and countries in the rest of the world, my research is especially attentive to issues of cultural construction and contestation.
