Episode Notes
We're back! Did you miss us? This week we're speaking with Dr Kate Simpson, Lecturer in Information Studies at the University of Glasgow and specialist in 19th century digital creation and curation. In this episode we ask: is Rick-rolling digital humanities? Is the Matrix still scholarly relevant? Is there such a thing as WO-manuscripts? We find out that Dr Livingstone had a terrifying ungroomed poodle (not a euphemism) and liked to steal jewellery. We learn that while C19th women 'colonised', men went on 'adventures' and 'discovered'. Finally, we figure out why 19thC explorers are all incels who are obsessed with boob mountains.

You can find out more about Kate's research into non-western voices and women from the colonial period by following her @drkatesimpson, or exploring livingstoneonline.org and onemorevoice.org
