The Digital Humanities and Interpretation - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  •  
    This is part of a series of provocative critiques by Stanley Fish of the discourse of digital humanities. Essentially he calls for a revised view of digital humanities that takes into account literary critical concerns with reception, ambiguity, and so on. Well work reading.

We Feel Fine / by Jonathan Harris and Sep Kamvar - 0 views

  •  
    Internet art piece by Johnathan Harris and Sep Kamvar. Scroll down and click on "Interactive Version" to see it. What is it? Well, as stated on their "Mission" page: "We Feel Fine is an exploration of human emotion on a global scale. Since August 2005, We Feel Fine has been harvesting human feelings from a large number of weblogs. Every few minutes, the system searches the world's newly posted blog entries for occurrences of the phrases "I feel" and "I am feeling". When it finds such a phrase, it records the full sentence, up to the period, and identifies the "feeling" expressed in that sentence (e.g. sad, happy, depressed, etc.). Because blogs are structured in largely standard ways, the age, gender, and geographical location of the author can often be extracted and saved along with the sentence, as can the local weather conditions at the time the sentence was written. All of this information is saved."
