DIGITAL INEQUALITIES - historicising changes in digital age. Do we need #DH for writing about #historyofcomputing? I would say yes! Today the workshop of the ZZF Potsdam (Institut der Leibniz-Gemeinschaft) project #digineq is starting. Looking forward to interesting talks on schools, women & migration in GER&GDR

BEHIND THE FACADE OF POTSDAM Our international group was invited today by RZ Potsdam and ZZF Potsdam (Institut der Leibniz-Gemeinschaft) on a historic tour organised by me.

Congrats!
