I really enjoyed our panel. Didi's and my paper both explored the characteristics and "usefulness" of fictional and fabricated sources and emphasized that Jewish history is also part of German-American history. Many thanks to @drjanaweiss.bsky.social for providing the comment! #migrationhistory

Last up is Torsten Roeder with a talk on "Greening DH" elaborating on DH and its struggle of depending on computers, computing, and infrastructures which, however, is one of the big drivers of climate change. Is DH actually sustainable in itself? #efficiency #sufficiency #consistency #solarcomputing

Christof Schöch kicks off with reflections on 10 years of DHd. Institutionally, DH is a discipline. BUT in practice, it’s more complex.
