- THATCamp (The Humanities & Technology Camp): an “‘unconference’ [see Wikipedia] where humanists and technologists meet to work together for the common good.” Started by the Center for History and New Media at George Mason University in 2008, THATCamps are now held around the US and the world, and are a locus for innovative, collaborative DH work. The site provides details of upcoming THATCamps and records of past conferences, and #thatcamp hashtag on Twitter is used throughout the year for THATCamp-related discussions.
