Bill Sterner
Lecturer, Dir. MacLab
Conceptual and Historical Studies of Science
U of Chicago
I’ve long been interested in crossover projects between computing and the humanities, and have taught a variety of courses related to themes of “computer programming as a liberal art.” I’m currently working on a monograph on Aristotle’s Poetics as a productive science that may someday have implications for thinking about artifactual design. Brenda Laurel’s Computers as Theater would be in a related domain space.

I am interested in digital libraries, with special emphasis on metadata issues (creation, standardization, access, semantics, usability); use and users of digital resources; digital collection management and development; and digital project management. Like others in my field, I believe the digital humanities offer scholars at the junior-faculty level many opportunities to do innovative, original research and break from the typically restrictive route to tenure in ways possibly transcending the intellectual gains of the scholarly monograph.

Brandon Harvey
Industry Researcher
Accenture
I am a researcher at the Accenture Technology Labs here in Chicago. It’s an applied technology group, which means that we build and experiment with technologies that are expected to have an impact in the next 2-5 years. I’m interested in human-computer interactions, which for me encompassees how we present resources to the user — whether textual, numeric, or interpersonal — as well as how we enable users to take meaningful action.
