CURATEcamp is an “unconference” gathering of folks engaged in the practice of digital curation. The “unconference” format encourages attendees to inform the agenda, so to speak, by suggesting topics for breakout sessions; a session may focus on a particular technology, problem space, or research question. At the two I have attended thus far, discussions have been rich in content, and the experiences have been valuable for professional networking purposes. The field of digital humanities offers something similar, called THATcamp. |
