Posted: July 22nd, 2010 | Author: tim | Filed under: Events, THATCamp, digital humanities, unconference | Comments Off

One of the things that’s keeping me busy at the moment is THATCamp Canberra. Yes, I got sick of missing out on all the THATCamp fun happening elsewhere and decided we should have our own.

THATCamp Canberra is a user-generated unconference on the digital humanities. It’ll be held at the University of Canberra on 28–29 August. We’re getting a great mix of applications and I’m really looking forward to learning about what’s going on around Australia.

Applications close on 23 July, so get yours in soon!
