Upcoming talks
A vaguely updated list of upcoming talks around the world…
In February I’ll be running a workshop on ‘lightweight usability’ at dev8D.
In March 2012 I’ll be in Australia for various things – more details to follow…
I’ll be in Canberra in late March for Digital Humanities Australasia 2012: Building, Mapping, Connecting to give a paper called ‘Why look a gift horse in the mouth? Exploring resistance to crowdsourced resources among historians’.
You can also follow me on twitter (@mia_out) for updates.
Most recent past papers
I was in Atlanta in November for MCN2011 (my ‘Hacking and mash-ups for beginners’ workshop is a highlight, woo!) and a panel discussion on ‘What’s the Point of a Museum Website?‘.
Update: I also debated the question “There are too many museums” in the ‘Great Debate‘ for MCN’s closing plenary.
Then it was back to London where I chaired a session at the MCG ‘Museums on the Web’ UKMW11 conference.
October 2011
I was one of two keynotes at Europeana Tech in Vienna, with a paper titled ‘Open for engagement: GLAM audiences and digital participation’. The next day I was back in London for LODLAM-London October 6 (with the Open Knowledge Foundation).
A few days later I was on a panel on the Digital Humanities at the Open University – my talk notes are at Notes on current issues in Digital Humanities.
I was also interviewed for the Microtask crowdsourcing blog, ‘Games at the museum: Mia Ridge interview‘.
Previous papers are generally listed at miaridge.com or on my blog, Open Objects.
