James O'Sullivan deposited Good literature can come in digital forms – just look to the world of video games on Humanities Commons 5 hours, 40 minutes ago
Developed by British game studio The Chinese Room, Dear Esther belongs to a contemporary genre of games known as “walking simulators”. These titles involve little more than travelling from one point to another, sometimes interacting with the occasional object while leisurely taking in the surrounds.

James O'Sullivan deposited Electronic Literature in Ireland in the group
Digital Humanists on Humanities Commons 1 year, 1 month ago
Literary Ireland has long embraced experimentation. So, in an artistic community that typically gravitates towards the new, it is culturally anomalous to see that electronic literature has failed to flourish. Ireland, sitting at the nexus between the North American and European e-lit communities, should be playing a more active role in what is…[Read more]

James O'Sullivan deposited We Need to Talk about the Digital Humanities Job in the group
Digital Humanists on Humanities Commons 1 year, 3 months ago
This is not a commentary on the definition, legitimacy, or future of digital humanities (DH) – there is already enough of that around. Rather, it is a treatment of one of the field’s most significant yet elided aspects – jobs. Not just any job, not the tenure-track professorship wherein digital humanities is combined with an established disci…[Read more]

Digital Humanists on Humanities Commons 1 year, 5 months ago
Kant remarks that beauty “is what pleases in the mere judgment (and there not by the medium of sensation in accordance with a concept of understanding),” and the sublime “pleases immediately through its opposition to the interest of sense”. Lyotard’s position is such that the sublime, as construed by Burke and Kant, “outlined a world of possibil…[Read more]

Digital Humanists on Humanities Commons 1 year, 5 months ago
Electronic literature, essentially, must be electronic and literary. Even if we cannot define the literary, we can at least recognize it, and, from recognition, we can begin to build meaning. This chapter attempts to do just that: offer readers an account of some of the contexts that suggest literature that is inherently digital and extrapolate…[Read more]
