WHAT IS
HUMANITIES COMPUTING AND WHAT IS NOT?
"We are by now well into a phase of civilization when the terrain to be mapped, explored, and annexed is information space, and what's mapped is not continents, regions, or acres but disciplines, ontologies, and concepts. We need representations in order to navigate this new world, and those representations need to be computable, because the computer mediates our access to this world, and those representations need to be produced at first-hand, by someone who knows the terrain. If, where the humanities should be represented, we in the humanities scrawl, or allow others to scrawl, »Here be dragons«, then we will have failed. We should not refuse to engage in representation simply because we feel no representation can do justice to all that we know or feel about our territory. That's too fastidious. We ought to understand that maps are always schematic and simplified, but those qualities are what make them useful." John Unsworth Dr. John Unsworth's insightful comments on the role of computing in the humanities are just as applicable to the social sciences, and in particular to socio-cultural anthropology where technophobia is deeply entrenched.
