Nov 19: the day my wife lost her fight to #BreastCancer (doktorfrag.com/2019/11/08/pud…). She was a true exemplar of motherhood, a patient and loving woman, a faithful wife beyond reproach, a supportive and wise counselor, and a steadfast friend. #BreastCancerAwareness #Brustkrebs

1/3 Excited to see @meDHieval and @CarletonCollege students 3D scanning Viking Age artifacts at the Archaeological Museum Schloss Gottorf in Germany. Assets from this field research will be used in our NEH #VR project: virtualvikings.sites.grinnell.edu #DigitalHumanities #MedievalTwitter

Uploaded our first 3D scan of the Sigtrygg Runestone DR4 from field research at the Viking Museum Haithabu to Sketchfab. Looking forward to see what @meDHieval and his @CarletonCollege students accomplish this week! skfb.ly/oS8n7 #DigitalHumanities #MedievalTwitter

Inspired by Viking Age tapestries, Henry Loomis '26, 3D artist @GrinnellCollege for the Virtual Viking Longship Project (virtualvikings.sites.grinnell.edu), created this beautiful splash screen logo for our #VR app. #DigitalHumanities #unity3d

20+ years since I was a grad student @WUSTL and I'm finally heading back to present on our @NEH_ODH Virtual Viking Longship Project at the Incubator for Transdisciplinary Futures! I wonder if the campus has changed much🤔 transdisciplinaryfutures.wustl.edu/events/reimagi… #VR #XR #DigitalHumanities

An update on the great work our undergraduate research partners @CarletonCollege and @GrinnellCollege having been doing on our @NEH_ODH funded #viking #VR #DH project

Impressed by the phenomenal work that our @NEH_ODH grant partners and student dev team @CarletonCollege are doing on the Virtual Viking Longship Project! We're excited to see where this ship will sail. Skål! CC: @TimothyDArner @GrinnellCollege

Congratulations to the newest members of our community of inquiry and practice @GrinnellCollege! We look forward to working with you all in the coming academic year. gciel.sites.grinnell.edu/current-studen… #DigitalHumanities #LiberalArts #SoGrinnellian #VR #XR

a Portrait of Tenochtitlan, my 3D reconstruction of the capital of the Aztec Empire is released! I've been looking forward to this for a long time, and I am really curious what all of you think. Take a look: tenochtitlan.thomaskole.nl #tenochtitlan

Our new lab space in the @GrinnellCollege HSSC is coming along nicely and just in time for the new semester. Just a few more connectors, small equipment replacements, and pictures for the bare walls and we'll be good to go!

Students from the Virtual Viking Longship dev team climbed aboard the Hjemkomst with Marke Hilde and Paul Hesse to record their stories of the 1982 voyage to Norway #DigitalHumanities #VR CC: @CarletonCollege @GrinnellCollege @NEH_ODH

The Virtual Viking Longship dev team is on site to do field research for its #VR app and oral history interviews with two members of the 1982 Hjemkomst Expedition #DigitalHumanities #MedievalTwitter CC: @CarletonCollege @GrinnellCollege @NEH_ODH

✔ Door frame installed and painted ✔ Project whiteboards hung Excited to see our new @GrinnellCollege #DigitalHumanities #VR dev space taking shape! More to come...

Summer MAP opportunity for Grinnell College students to work on The Virtual Viking Longship Project. @GrinnellCIEL

Exciting to see work on our #VR dev lab @GrinnellCollege finally begin. What #DigitalHumanities projects will start here? What communities of inquiry and practice will take shape here? What new partnerships will be formed? Stay tuned...

Thankful to @TimothyDArner, our resident Viking @GrinnellCollege, for the important work he is doing for our @NEH_ODH #VR project. He's laying the foundation for future collaboration and student field research. More: grinnell.edu/news/neh-grant… #MedievalTwitter #DigitalHumanities

“...digital game-based learning can, I think, provide the first step toward understanding and respecting the other.” 🤝 Check out this thought-provoking article by @doktorfrag on the intersection of the #humanities and #gamebasedlearning! doktorfrag.com/2016/07/27/dig…

We're officially open for business! Professor Chris French (Mathematics) and his students get ready to power up our lab computers for the first time and continue developing their project to teach advanced math topics in immersive #VR environments. #SoGrinnellian
