The Australasian Association for Digital Humanities (aaDH) is pleased to
announce its third conference, to be held at The University of Tasmania,
Hobart, 20-23 June, 2016.

The aim of DHA 2016 is to advance and critically assess the uses of digital
technologies in humanities research and the communication of its outcomes.
The conference offers a supportive, interdisciplinary environment to
explore the challenges and opportunities working with digital tools and
techniques present.

The conference is supported by The Faculty of Arts, University of Tasmania,
and the Business Events Bureau, Tasmania.

• CONFERENCE WEBSITE: http://www.uqhistory.net/web/dha2016
• CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS CLOSES: 19 February 2016
• NOTIFICATION OF ACCEPTANCE: 18 March 2016
• REGISTRATION: Opens 25 January 2016

PROPOSALS

The broad theme of this third aaDH Conference is ‘Working with Complexity.’

Regardless of disciplinary interests, problems and debates, one concern
that humanists and creative artists share is their engagement with
complexity. Using digital technologies presents technical challenges, but
arguably more significant are the intellectual and conceptual complexities
that realising their creative and analytical potential present. We invite
proposals on all aspects of digital humanities, but encourage papers and
birds of a feather sessions focusing on working with complexity.

Among the issues we would especially like to explore at DHA 2016 are:

• Analysis: complexities in linguistic, historical, environmental and
cultural scholarship
• Visualisation: spatial-temporal analysis of complex human and
environmental phenomena
• Engagement science: public engagement with digital culture
• Evaluation: digital humanities, institutional ambitions and research
integrity
• Disciplines: intellectual traditions and new formations in the age of
research complexity
• Infrastructure: socio-cultural complexities and informatics
• Rights: ensuring recognition and the integrity of artistry digitised in
humanities research

DHA 2016 will held in conjunction in Hobart with Digital Panopticon: Penal
History in a Digital Age, 22-24 June 2016. See
http://www.digitalpanopticon.org/?p=934 This conference focuses on digital
humanities and the history of prisons, the law, courts and convict
transportation systems. Papers and presentations will address ways in which
the data generated by criminal justice systems that is increasingly
becoming available in digital form can be used to shed light on the past.

SUBMISSIONS FOR DHA 2016: Abstracts of no more than 500 words, together
with a biography of no more than 100 words, should be submitted to the
Program Committee by 19 February 2016.

All submissions will be fully refereed. Submissions (i.e. abstracts) should
be submitted via the online form at:

http://www.uqhistory.net/web/dha2016/index.php/dha2016/dha2016/schedConf/cfp

Please indicate whether you are proposing a short paper (10 mins + 5 mins
questions), a long paper (25 mins + 5 mins questions), a panel or forum
session (60 mins), lightning talk (5 mins) or poster.

Submissions will be assessed in terms of alignment with the conference
themes and the quality of research within these or related themes.
Presenters will be notified of acceptance of their submission by 18 March
2016.

WORKSHOPS

We are keen to have proposals for half-day workshops. Please send
expressions of interest to Paul Turnbull.

SUBMISSION TYPES:

Poster presentations

Poster presentations may include work-in-progress as well as demonstrations
of computer technology, software and digital projects. A separate poster
session will take place during one day of the conference, during which time
presenters will need to be available to explain their work, share their
ideas with other delegates, and answer questions. Presenters are encouraged
to provide material and handouts with more detailed information and URLs.
Poster guidelines will be posted on the conference website to help you
prepare your poster.

Lightning Talks

We plan to have several sessions devoted to short 5 minute talks on any
matter of relevance to Digital Humanities.

Short papers

Short papers will be allocated 10 minutes (plus 5 minutes for questions)
and are suitable for describing work-in-progress and reporting on work in
the early stage of development.

Long Papers

Long Papers will be allocated 25 minutes (plus 5 minutes for questions) and
are intended for presenting substantial unpublished research, new digital
resources or addressing broader questions of interest to digital humanists.

‘Birds of a Feather’ Sessions

‘Birds of a Feather’ sessions will be allocated 60 minutes to be used as
participants decide, although ensuring that time is allocated for questions
and questions. A session could take the form of a panel or an array of
formats, such as lightning talks or an open mike event.

BURSARIES

A limited number of travel bursaries (AUD $500) are available on a
competitive basis for students and early career researchers whose
conference paper has been accepted (lead author only). Bursaries will be
awarded on the basis of merit and need, with consideration given to issues
of gender equality and economic, ethnic, cultural, and linguistic
diversity. Applicants are requested to supply a 500 word statement of their
interests in digital humanities broadly defined (apply through the online
form when submitting your paper).

The best student/ECR paper presented at the conference will receive the
John Burrows Award, named after an Australian pioneer in computational
methods in the humanities. All student papers are eligible for
consideration for the award, whether they receive travel bursaries or not.
