The Digital Classicist community runs a series of seminars, panels at conferences, and other events throughout the year, with a formal seminar series every Summer at the Institute of Classical Studies in London. Audio recordings and Powerpoint/PDF slideshows are uploaded shortly after each event.
2009 Digital Classicist seminar programme (podcast feed)
The purpose of this group is to enable discussion and engagement with the recorded events by digital classicists and other scholars who will not be able to attend the seminars themselves. Each week we shall link to the audio and slideshow, and post a preliminary report on the event. We shall also encourage as many other audience members or those who have listened to the podcast to post their thoughts to the forum.
