Exquisite Corpora - 2 views

  •  
    Exquisite Corpora is a Tumblr page created by the Harvard metaLAB. The participants are to be in teams of three and craft a detailed abstract for a proposal to a scholarly press based on the genre, platform, and audience cards that they received at the metaLAB grad school. Each one Includes one piece of media (an image, audio file, video, interactive piece, etc.) that illustrates their concept. They have 45 minutes to research, discuss, and compose their proposals before they upload it to the Tumblr. These are similar to the lightning talks we discussed in class.

Philosophy Missing in DH - 0 views

  •  
    This is a a blog by Peter Bradley, a digital humanist whose focus is in philosophy. He makes the observation that there is a definite lack of philosophers in the DH. He notes that there are philosophers who work in technological advancement, and philosophers who use technology to advance philosophy, but he states there is no one doing philosophy. For example, philosophers may analyze the concept of open-access and Logicians may help with coding, but people are not utilizing the technical aspects for their research such as map trends.

Digital Metaphors in Chatonsky's The Subnetwork - 0 views

  •  
    I linked this page from ADHO. It is a descriptive article of Gregory Chatonsky's project (?), The Subnetwork. A majority of the article focuses on the abstract relationships that Chatonsky uses to connect many aspects of his work, including participants' interaction (passive and active), animation, and general presentation of the work. It also notes that Chatonsky use of 'metaphor' goes beyond the accepted academic definition of the term, and uses it as an active 'member' or 'tool' to connect the text/concept to the presentation.

Stanford's Digital Humanities Projects - 3 views

  •  
    This is the main page of Stanford University's projects in digital humanities, mainly the Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis (CESTA). CESTA is a digital humanities project comprised of several projects, that span a wide variety of content areas and use different approaches. Two of the three projects mentioned (Mapping the Republic of Letters and Spatial History Project) seem to be a collaborative research effort to digitally map a concept. The last project under CESTA, Literary Lab, seems to be an archive of papers, dissertaions, and research by the current students and staff members of Stanford.
