The Center for Digital Inquiry and Learning (CDIL) is proud to announce the launch of "Sedimentation: An Archive of Glen Canyon," a new multimedia digital-archival project by Hannah Green, CDIL’s Summer 2025 Graduate Fellow.
Winner of the 2026 American Studies Association Digital Humanities Newcomer Project Award, the project investigates the demise and resurgence of Glen Canyon under Lake Powell’s shifting waters. By treating sediment itself as an archive—a physical record shaped by drought, dams, geology, and policy—the project weaves archival photography, historical maps, and data visualization to connect past landscapes with present environmental crises.
