Dear Data

Our colleagues in Digital Scholarship are gearing up for Dear Data Binghamton 2024, coming this Spring. You can expect more details after the New Year. In the meantime, if you find yourself in NYC this winter season, stop by MoMA and check out the original work--Dear Data--by Georgia Lupi and Stefanie Posavec that started it all! The project is also available as a published book at your favorite library or bookstore.
