What happens when religion goes digital? This course examines how religious practitioners and the “spiritual but not religious” are reimagining worship, presence, ontology, community, authority, ethics, and care for the digital age. Case studies center BIPOC, queer, and feminist voices, lived religion, digital arts, social media, and social justice. Students practice skills for digital humanities research, engage in ethical reflection, theorize self-and-community-care for the digital age, and apply course learning to create a self-care toolkit, digital artifact, and final paper.
