If you have a question about this talk, please contact Jack Atkinson. I started out as a lexicographer and have ended up, to my surprise, as a Digital Humanities RSE , working principally on the MPhil in Digital Humanities at Cambridge Digital Humanities. One of the challenges and rewards of my job is working with students whose technical experience varies between essentially none and a first degree in Computer Science. Equally wide ranging are the topics the students research, from, say, metre detection in Greek tragedy to TikTok influencers. The MPhil is a humanities degree, based in the English Faculty: you don’t have to write any code and if you do we don’t mark it, which of course affects the way the students allocate their time. In this talk I will discuss the ways in which my career has (and hasn’t) equipped me to do my current job, the pleasure of working on humanities projects with students, but also how my preference for digital minimalism sometimes conflicts with my students’ interests.
