+*Digital infrapuncture* is a speculative term that can help reframe the perception [<- I don't understand this idea of reframing the perception, be more concrete e.g. it draws attention to stress points in infrastructure and stimulates thinking about how to intervene] of the stress points that an infrastructure could have. In a talk she presented in 2016 called *Identifying the point of it all: Towards a Model of "Digital Infrapuncture"*[^DigitalInfrapuncture], [add Deb] Verhoeven [add Canada 150 Research Chair in Gender and Cultural Informatics at the University of Alberta] develops this concept in relation to the field of digital humanities.
 
-Informed by the work of scholar Nowviskie[^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.
