What is Digital Humanities?
Digital Humanities is the link between different aspects of humanities such as history, literature, music etc. to media. For example the app Instagram is social media application that allows the user to post pictures for their followers to see. This is a great way for artists and photographers to showcase their work and express themselves. This falls under the making/creating aspect of Digital Humanities. There is also an archival/database aspect to Digital humanities that allows more accessibility to information. An example of this is Wikipedia.
Some good material here, Elijah. I like that you mention both creative work and archival work. Both are very important in DH.
