Expectations: In this class, I would like to understand some chances of and upsides/downsides to working with (interactive) digital representations of texts. I expect getting to know different tools for "doing things in a digital way".
Questions: Which digital possibilities do we have to work with texts/present them and in an innovative way? (How) can we benefit from a digital learning environment and how can we create those in a beneficial way for everyone?

Mich hat besonders bewegt bei der Lektüre, dass es zumindest eine theoretische Möglichkeit für Unis gibt, in öffentliche digitale Infrastruktur zu investieren, die bestimmten Werten und Anforderungen entspricht. Außerdem würde ich gerne noch weiter über dir Konsequenzen von "Code is law" nachdenken.
Vielleicht auch: Welches Potenzial hat "freie" Software für Unis? Gäbe es die Möglichkeit, sie für eigene Zwecke anzupassen?

Unfortunatly, I could not open the PDF with our second chapter to read. Nevertheless I took a look into Genealogies of the Digital Humanities (don't know, wether this link is going to work) and was fascinated by the passage:
"Servant/participant: treating the machine’s efficiency as a servant’ rather than as a ‘participant enabling of criticism’ (McCarty 2009)"
What would it look like to treat the machines efficency as a "participant enabling of criticism"?
The relationship between knowledge and representation seem to be a central question, I would like to maybe have/make some graphic overviews for this relation (obviouly same problem again, nevertheless)
Havind read the chapter itself I got cought

Interesting points from Towards a critical digital humanities
‘digital humanists will need to find ways to show that thinking critically about metadata, for instance, scales into thinking critically about the power, finance, and other governance protocols of the world’ (p. 137)
ethics and politics of creating information (p. 142)
digital humanities can as well be a question of hiding things/preventing direct access --> how to create digital private spaces (p. 148 ff.)
