Darcy Krasne

is in her final year of the Data Analytics and Visualization MS, with advanced certificates in Digital Humanities and Spatial Analysis & Design. She also holds a PhD in Classics. She enjoys exploratory data analysis and is especially interested in the human side of data, as well as in the causes and implications of outliers. Her Digital Humanities interests are particularly focused on the trajectory of the digital turn within ancient Mediterranean studies and its historical evolution alongside (both parallel to and divergent from) the broader field of Digital Humanities.

Darcy’s professional portfolio

Stephanie Naut

is a Master of Library and Information Science student interested in working with digital humanities research and special collections. She explores the possibility of using Digital Humanities as an alternative research method, preservation, and accessibility. Her projects focus on data visualization, exhibitions, and digital environmental humanities. Outside of their studies, Stephanie is a bookseller and an avid reader.

Alison Long

is a graduate student in the Data Analysis and Visualization program at Pratt Institute. She experiments with creative and intimate approaches to data representation through graphic design, interactive media, and storytelling. Her projects focus on mapping, documenting, and celebrating cultural networks and niche communities. Outside of her studies, Alison makes illustrated story zines and biomimetic art.

Nene Villalobos

is a Masters of Library and Information Science student. They enjoy the possibility that digital tools can lend to the expansion of literacy of all forms. Their interest in Digitial Humanities is to bridge the gap between what is the infrastructure of information and how it can give agency to those accessing it. They are also interested in agility; one must know when to present ideas and iterate, but they must embrace failure as an opportunity to ask what happened. Information is cultural, personal, queer, alive, deceased, and all the periphery artifacts one holds onto physically and metaphysically.

Maddy Casey

is a Masters of Library and Information Science student. She particularly enjoys exploring digital preservation, metadata, and critical data literacy. Her interest in Digital Humanities is driven by a passion for making information accessible, engaging, and ethical, and the opportunities DH presents in service of that goal. She is also interested in making the labor of digital work visible, and exploring the ethical implications of the ways in which information is constructed.

Claudia Berger

is the Digital Humanities Librarian at Sarah Lawrence College and Visiting Assistant Professor at Pratt Institute’s School of Information. She received an MSLIS from Pratt and an MA in Classics from the University of Exeter. Their research centers around new approaches to digital humanities research, like physical data visualizations and digital environmental humanities. She also serves as an Editor of dh+lib, working on the biweekly dh+lib Review and editing special issues, and as the Deputy Secretary of the Association for Computers and the Humanities (ACH). Before becoming a librarian, Claudia used to make zines and mini comics in their spare time and is trying to reconnect to that practice!
