The field of digital humanities is dynamic -- but how has the way we write about digital humanities changed? This talk focuses on using text mining techniques to analyze the two recent volumes published in 2012 and 2016; as well as several other DH anthologies published between 2004 and 2016.

All welcome and there will be drinks and discussion after the talk. Please note that is required.
