Letter of Support - Jim and Timlynn's GoFundMe Campaign
To Prospective Donors to Jim and Timlynn's Campaign to Attend TimeMachine19,
As Head of the Pattern Recognition Lab of the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg and a Member of the Executive Team of the Time Machine Project, I support Jim and Timlynn's commitment to attend the Time Machine 2019 conference this October in Dresden. Unfortunately, financial support is also limited at our institution. Still, I admire Jim and Timlynn's dedication in their support of the Time Machine Project.
I have known Jim and Timlynn since June of 2018 when they introduced themselves via email describing their magazine ground-truth research and expressing interest in involvement in the Time Machine Project. Since then, we have engaged in frequent communication that has deepened my appreciation for their innovative research and advocacy on behalf of Citizen Scientists as members of the research community. I consider the work of Citizen Scientist fundamental in the development of the Time Machine.
With their dedication, I strongly believe that Jim and Timlynn's campaign will be successful. Therefore, I look forward to meeting both in person this October at the conference. I encourage your support of their campaign to attend this important Digital Humanities conference. I welcome their strong voices on behalf of Citizen Scientists interested in participation in the Time Machine Project.
With kind regards,
