This session explores how minimal computing can promote ethical, accessible, and equitable scholarship by reducing technological barriers, minimizing environmental impact, and improving the resilience of digital humanities projects. We'll discuss a range of practices that align with these principles and will explore tools that embody or facilitate minimal approaches, with a focus on how those approaches can be used in DH research, publication, and pedagogy. The workshop will balance practical concerns with critical discussions about the implications of adopting minimal computing, thereby helping participants to choose tools and design projects that align with their values.

Note: While there are no prerequisites for the workshop, you may want to enroll in Intro to Minimal Computing (RCR, 19 September 2024) for a broader overview of minimal computing practices and the ethical commitments that animate them.
