Submissions for Cards Against Digital Humanities are coming in! While I don’t think we’ll have enough suggestions to play this weekend, I’m hopeful we’ll collect enough to have a deck ready for our friends at THATCamp Games.

Here’s a preview of some of the ideas submitted to date:

Black card: Blank is not dead. White cards: Wikipedia; lab grown beef; the syllabus

Black card: I prefer to spend my office hours blank. White cards: trolling ProfHacker; sniffing white board markers; egosurfing

Black card: Humanities instructors do blank better. White cards: Stanley Fish; holding in a fart while lecturing; hacked nudes

Please continue to share your suggestions, and, if you’re not sure what this is all about, you’ll find an explanation in this previous post.

Inspired by Cards Against Humanity and Emily Lloyd’s Cards Against Librarianship, Cards Against Digital Humanities, a free, printable card game, is happening.

Please submit your suggestions for cards via this Google form. If we receive enough submissions before Friday, I’ll print a deck for us to play during THATCamp Alabama; otherwise, we’ll continue to collect suggestions throughout our camp in hopes of having a deck to share with THATCamp Games prior to their upcoming camp.

Note: Cards Against Humanity contains humor that some find objectionable (here’s one author’s take). While Cards Against Digital Humanities is inspired by CAH and its gameplay, the creators of Cards Against Digital Humanities will reject suggestions that are not respectful to all potential players, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion, etc..
