DH 2015, the Global Digital Humanities conference was held June 30-July 4, in Sydney, Australia. The program was richly populated with excellent papers, panel discussions, and posters on current work in the field, a good deal of it community-based, outward-facing, politically and socially engaged. Keynotes by Intel's Genevieve Bell, on robots, and Tim Sheratt, "Unremembering the Forgotten," stood out in particular. CTSDH Director Steven Jones presented a paper on his forthcoming book, Roberto Busa, S.J., and The Emergence of Humanities Computing: The Priest and the Punched Cards.
