Model/Making: Toward Generative Humanities
3rd Hong Kong Association of Digital Humanities Conference

21-24 January 2027

The concept of the model has been core to digital humanities, in the form of standards, statistics, prototypes, and practices. Building on this longstanding tradition, HKADH2027 explores how digital, computational, and analytical frameworks also become engines for cultural production. Alongside established analytical practices, the event will highlight the emerging horizons coming into view. Our theme, Model/Making, expands the discipline by embracing generative, artistic, and applied dimensions of models and modelling. The following areas are of particular interest.
• The use of models to create narratives, music, art, games; data modelling as artistic practice; algorithmic composition and procedural rhetoric
• Digital models and materialities, including printing, weaving, robotics, VR/AR environments, and storytelling forms
• Simulations and performances of events, dynamics, spaces; synthetic data in humanities contexts
• Archive, heritage, preservation implications of data models, corpus constructions, metadata standards, semantics and ontologies
• Collaboration between humans and AI in the production of cultural artifacts; collaboration between DH practitioners and others within or beyond the academy
• Theoretical lenses on generative capacities of models, including philosophy of technology, media theory, and infrastructure studies.
• Authorship, ownership, intellectual property; societal impact of data, data modelling, and AI; analysis on reliance or overreliance on generative media in various DH contexts
• Computational modelling and generative media in humanities curricula.
We welcome submissions on all relevant topics, and we welcome applications to make different kinds of contributions to the conference, including creative work, hands-on workshops, posters, papers, panels, and roundtables.

Abstract
Hong Kong author Wong Yi began her career reading and publishing short stories in Chinese, with years of experience incorporating Cantonese in her prose, libretto, and letterpress artwork. In recent years, she started writing in English as well, and her relationship with the language became a topic on which she constantly reflects on. Her near native proficiency in English allows her to read world literature, engage in literary and cultural exchange with readers and artists around the world, and experience life in Hong Kong and beyond through a language other than Chinese; yet it also opens her up to unique heartaches due to various stereotypes associated with race and Hong Kong’s education system. In this seminar, Wong Yi will share her experience growing up between Cantonese and English, her use of the two languages in her creative writing journey, and her recent works inspired by her life between the two languages.

About the Speaker
WONG Yi is an award-winning Hong Kong writer, librettist, founding member of Xi Xi Foundation, and project curator of Xi Xi Space. She was an editor at Fleur des Lettres and host of “Book Review” on RTHK for many years. In 2020, she was named one of 20 Young Sinophone Novelists to Watch by the Taiwanese literary magazine Unitas. She is the author of four short story collections: Ways To Love In A Crowded City (2021), The Four Seasons of Lam Yip (2019), Patched Up (2015), and News Stories (2010). She was the Hong Kong Writer-in-residence for Hong Kong Baptist University’s first Chinese Writers Workshop in 2021, Writer-in-residence for The Education University of Hong Kong in 2023, and has participated in events such as the Singapore Writers Festival, Singapore Book Fair, Hong Kong International Literary Festival, Taipei International Book Exhibition, and European Literature Night. In 2023, she participated in the University of Iowa’s prestigious International Writing Program Fall Residency. She currently teaches creative writing at Hong Kong Baptist University and various secondary schools in Hong Kong.

各位同學:

我們誠邀您參加「從種籽開始:在香港農場探索自然、關懷和科技」體驗活動,一起探討在都市環境中,如何透過種植實踐對自然的關懷。透過走訪香港各具特色的農場,體驗並觀察形式各異的農耕方法,我們將共同探索自然與科技的關係,以藝術創作探索注入人文關懷的永續想像。透過學習、記錄和創作,活動旨在推廣永續發展的理念。

關注生態環境,實踐對未來的關懷
餐桌上每天的食物是我們生命的基本,食物的生產和種植卻離我們的生活很遠。我們可以如何由食物的最初形態——種籽,開始實踐對自然和城巿未來的關懷?植物的成長需要怎樣的照顧?透過種植,我們可以學習照顧環境、照顧同伴、照顧自己嗎?

是次活動由香港教育大學「在可持續高科技城市農業中安置關懷」項目舉辦。項目希望通過實地考察香港不同的農場,認識可持續的城巿農業,探索農作物、土地養護、科技和生態藝術之間的關係。透過觀察種籽在不同種植環境中的生命形態,我們將共同發掘香港農業的多元面貌,思考城巿的可持續發展。
是次活動將舉辦三次農場參觀與體驗工作坊。參加者將在專業人員帶領下,親身體驗簡單的種植活動,記錄農場觀察,並參與生態藝術創作。

參加者將獲得:
• 完成學習活動的參加者將獲參與證書
• 精美農場紀念品
• 發佈農場觀察記錄及生態藝術創作的機會

活動詳情:
• 參加資格:年滿十八歲,對可持續發展、城巿農業、藝術感興趣的本校現有學生, 額滿即止。
• 費用:全免(名額有限,優先考慮能參與最多節數的參加者)。
• 語言:活動將以粵語進行,配以英語輔助
• 第一輪報名截止日期:2026年8月10日。

Dear Students,

We are excited to invite you to participate in the experiential program "To See a City from a Seed: Exploring Nature, Care, and Technology in Hong Kong Farms". Together, we will explore how diverse cultivation methods foster modes of care in an urban environment. Through visits to three distinct farms in Hong Kong, participants will explore different farming methods to deepen their understanding of the relations between nature, agriculture, technology and reflect on sustainable futures of our city instilled with care and creativity. The program aims to promote sustainable development through learning, documentation, and creative expression.

To See a city from a Seed, Cultivating Care for Sustainable Urban Futures.

While the food on our dining tables sustains life, the processes through which it is produced often seem distant and disconnected from everyday experiences. This program invites participants to reconnect with the environment, and with food at its very beginning—from the seed—and to consider how caring for nature can shape a more sustainable future. What does a plant need to grow? Through farming and cultivation, can we learn to better care for our environment, our companions, and ourselves?

The program is organised by the project “Situating Care in High-technological Urban Farming” at The Education University of Hong Kong. Through experiential visits to three distinct farms in Hong Kong, participants will learn about the development of sustainable urban farming and explore the relationships between produce, soil care, technology, and eco-art. They will observe the growth of seeds and deepen the understanding of how greater care for the environment can contribute to the city’s sustainable development.

Under the guidance of experts in the field, participants will engage in hands-on activities, develop observation journals, and create eco-art.

Participants will receive:
• Certificate of Participation: awarded upon completion of required learning activities.
• Souvenirs: farm mementos.
• Publication Opportunities: publish observation notes and share eco-art creations on the project platform.

Program Details:
• Eligibility: Open to EdUHK students aged 18 and above who are interested in sustainable development, urban agriculture, or eco-art.
• Fee: Free of charge (Limited slots available; priority will be given to participants who can attend the most sessions).
• Language: Cantonese, supplemented with English.
• First-round Application Deadline: August 10th, 2026.
