Gimena del Rio Riande (National Scientific and Technical Research Council (CONICET), Buenos Aires/EXC 2020 Fellow 2025) | Future-Proofing Digital Editions: A Minimal Computing Approach

This contribution will highlight the crucial role of material, institutional and epistemological contexts in the production of digital editions. Moving beyond universalist, Anglo-European paradigms, it argues for decentralised and community-driven editorial practices that value local scholarly traditions, shared resources and linguistic diversity. Using collaborative digital projects in Latin America as a case study, the presentation will demonstrate how a focus on minimal computing, the use of open technologies, and ownership of data and code can help to envision sustainable, low-infrastructure futures for digital editions.
