The Center for Digital Humanities at Princeton is excited to launch Year of Data, a campus-wide initiative that will take place during the 2018-2019 academic year.

The CDH will host over twenty events – invited speakers, symposia, workshops, discussions – to encourage critical thinking about how data shapes our research, teaching, and daily lives. Together we’ll address questions such as:

  • How do we conceive of the human record as data?
  • What analytical, methodological, and technological practices do we bring to bear on questions of data in the humanities?
  • How can humanistic approaches transform data science?

Our programming kicks off with an . The Year of Data keynote address will be given by Dr. Safiya Noble, author of Algorithms of Oppression: How Search Engines Reinforce Racism, on December 6.
