There are many ways to define the Digital Humanities, some as simple as the intersection of humanities with technology.
I like to think of the Digital Humanities as harnessing the power of digital tools to tell stories in new ways and broaden the audiences for those stories.
To date, I’ve worked on two main Digital Humanities projects, both collaborative. The first is with students in my class, Decolonizing Ethnomusicology. The second with various partners and collaborators in relation to ethnographic research in Sumatra.
