Bly's Readers' Traversals & Interviews

These Traversals by and Interviews of readers Matthew Kirschenbaum and Margo Padilla, conducted by Dene Grigar and Stuart Moulthrop, took place on Friday, January 31, 2014 at the Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities (MITH) at the University of Maryland as part of the Pathfinders project. 

Both Kirschenbaum and Padilla made excellent readers for the Traversals.  Kirschenbaum is the Associate Director of MITH and a leading scholar in Digital Humanities. He had served from 2006-2009 as Vice-President of the Electronic Literature Organization (ELO).  He serves as curator of The Bly Collection and, so, is familiar with the work.  Margo Padilla was a graduate student at the University of Maryland and from 2013-4 a Resident in  National Digital Stewardship Program, an initiative of The Library of Congress in the area of digital preservation. While she did not know We Descend, her training in digital preservation prepared her for a careful reading of Bly's work.
