Bringing Photo Archives Collections to Life Using Juxtapose JS

This talk was given on February 12, 2026 as part of the Digital Humanities (DH) Sparks talk series, a campus event organized by Arts and Humanities Kathrine Aydelott and by a DH community of practice across the UNH Durham Campus. This presentation with University Archivist Kai Uchida, Principal Lecturer of English Melinda White, and student Victoria Hayes discusses a collaboration between an English 510: Introduction to Digital Humanities class and Milne Special Collections and Archives. They discuss and reflect on the conception, execution, and outcomes of a project in which students used the Knightlabs platform Juxtapose JS to create an interactive “then and now” photo series that recreates photographs from the Bremer W. Pond Photo Collection.
