Matt Barrow on 07 Nov 12This article comments on common ideas found in many definitions of digital humanities. The author uses the collaborative aspects of digital humanities to draw connections to a broader description of what he calls the open humanities. This new distinction includes the "aspects of the humanities aimed at democratizing production and consumption of humanities research," but excludes the purely digital elements of the digital humanities, such as code, markup, and hardware.
