Description

Solar-powering the humanities: archiving for the future [the center for experimental humanities (EH) at bard college proposes a new initiative that creatively RE-envisions archives and the reliance of small institutions on external data storage providers while also significantly cutting overall contribution to institutional carbon footprint. As a proof-of-concept level i project, we will redesign and migrate our EH digital archive, currently hosted on amazon web services (AWS), to a ?solar server? That we will design, prototype and self-host. Our designs will then be made available via an open-source toolkit and white paper so that other humanities centers and low-resourced programs can reimagine their archive to be self-sustaining and environmentally responsible.]
