Led by the Intellectual Heritage Digital Learning Coordinators
Alicia Cunningham-Bryant
Alicia Cunningham-Bryant is an assistant professor and Digital Learning Coordinator in the Intellectual Heritage Program. She received her Ph.D. in Egyptology from Yale University where she embraced digital humanities to reexamine the history of early East Africa. She fell in love with utilizing technology to reach a variety of audiences and has used the online environment to produce museum exhibits such as The Yale Peabody Museum's Echoes of Egypt: Conjuring the Land of the Pharaohs, create catalogs of forgotten collections, build innovative online classes, and study cultural interaction through aggregate data analysis. Her current book Ancient Objects, Modern Power utilizes modern digitization techniques of the previously unexplored archive of W.K. Simpson to reevaluate our understanding of the use of archaeology as foreign policy and its impact on American foreign relations during the Cold War.
