Title: What is digital infrapuncture? Title: What is digital infrapuncture?
Slug: section-1-introduction Slug: section-1-introduction
What is digital infrastructure? And why do should they be rethought in terms of capacity and care? "Digital infrapuncture" is a speculative term that can help reframe the perception of the stress points that an infrastructure could have. In her opening talk for the 2016 Digital Humanities at Oxford Summer School called [*Identifying the point of it all: Towards a Model of "Digital Infrapuncture"*](https://podcasts.ox.ac.uk/opening-keynote-identifying-point-it-all-towards-model-digital-infrapuncture), Verhoeven develops this concept in relation to the field of digital humanities.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Suspendisse in libero viverra risus pulvinar congue. Sed pellentesque condimentum cursus. Quisque vestibulum ex quis tincidunt faucibus. Etiam porta nec eros quis ornare. Curabitur posuere lorem a lectus tincidunt fermentum. Nunc efficitur neque in mattis ullamcorper. Nullam aliquam nunc et elit tempor hendrerit. Proin eu erat sit amet nisl ultrices feugiat. Suspendisse dignissim ipsum sed ex porttitor molestie. Aenean elementum vitae justo eget scelerisque. Phasellus in quam vulputate, tempus libero eu, ornare tellus. Etiam sollicitudin venenatis hendrerit. Ut dolor dolor, commodo sit amet arcu eget, porttitor aliquam justo. Fusce maximus laoreet turpis sit amet molestie. Nulla facilisi. Informed by the work of scholar Nowviskie (Nowviskie 2015)[^Nowviskie], Verhoeven asks for a rethinking of digital infrastructures in terms of capacity and care, by "developing an appreciation for where it hurts, where the sense of pain is in the worlds that we inhabit and study" and creating small scale interventions which can enkindle transformation on a larger scale.

Orci varius natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. In her presentation, she describes digital infrastructures according to their capacity to create the conditions of possibility for connection, their capacity for repair (Jackson, 2014)[^Jackson], and their capacity to bring things (back) together.
