Yesterday I was telling someone about the book I'm working on, a new model of mind for the digital age, and she asked how I spent my days. Was it at a lab conducting experiments? Or interviewing subjects? Doing ethnography? Sorting through archives? It was an excellent question. If I had been one notch more pretentious, I think my answer might have been: I've spent the last eighteen months making like Kant.

Not all work that all humanists do is "foundational." Not all work that those in other disciplines do is "humanistic." But there is a broad humanistic category of translational knowledge that seems to me an essential part of learning in the twenty-first century and an essential charge for universities in this century. The future of learning isn't only this. But crucially, fundamentally, it must include this world of translational and transformative ideas.

What is a discipline? Maybe it is the space-time of slowing down and going inward, having a conversation of such specificity and reference that only others in one's group understand. In the reading I'm doing this year, it is fascinating to see how often researchers move in and out of disciplines, sometimes addressing a wider audience and then, at others, being unable to resist the temptation to dally, linger, probe, analyze, scrutinize, challenge, and caress the disciplinary object.

HASTAC was founded on the idea that the humanities, the sciences (social and natural), the arts, and technology are all needed if we are going to think through the implications of a digital future. If there are "Eight Ways to be a HASTAC leader," there are hundreds of ways to contribute to HASTAC's intellectual agenda.
