Wayne Graham, head of research and development at the University of Virginia’s Scholars’ Lab, will offer a public lecture as part of the Illuminations Digital Humanities Series at 3:00 p.m., Friday, November 20, in the Hodges Library Auditorium.

Graham’s research and development team at the Scholars’ Lab cater to the digital research and scholarly analysis needs of faculty and advanced students in the humanities and social sciences.

Graham’s own research interests include public humanities, augmented and virtual reality, photogrammetry, and scholarly interface design.

As a “full-stack” developer, Graham’s technical expertise is in web application languages, systems design, and technical training for humanities-based research questions. Before joining the Scholars’ Lab in 2009, he worked as a historical researcher, TEI specialist, web developer, systems architect, dabbling in computer graphics, high-performance computing, and emerging technologies coordination.

The Illuminations Digital Humanities Series is sponsored by the Humanities Center, the University Libraries, and the ORE Scholarly Projects Fund. Each year, the series invites thinkers, scholars, and technologists in the digital humanities to share their work and wisdom with the greater DH and digital scholarship community.
