Post your visualization with the Category Visualization<\/strong> to the website\u00a0by 9am, Friday, July 6. <\/strong>This can be a link to a map, timeline, network diagram, text analysis, annotation … really, anything that will bring some sort of visual, interactive element to your final project. If you really want to use one of the text or network analysis tools introduced on Monday or Tuesday, and think you may need more time, let us know.<\/p>\n Post by 9am, Monday, July 9<\/strong><\/p>\n As digital humanities practitioners at a small liberal arts college, it\u2019s important to be aware of criticism of digital humanities work, as well as negative perceptions of liberal arts schools. Read the following article:<\/p>\n \u201cNeoliberal Tools (and Archives): A Political History of Digital Humanities\u201d<\/a>\u00a0By Daniel Allington, Sarah Brouillette, David Golumbia<\/p>\n Given what you have learned so far about digital humanities and digital scholarship, what is your reaction to this article? Do you agree with the authors, disagree, or somewhere in between? Make sure you are acquainted with the concept of\u00a0neoliberalism<\/a>. The article\u00a0\u201cThe Neoliberal Arts: How College Sold Its Soul to the Market\u201d<\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0William Deresiewicz may provide some additional context.\u00a0Once you\u2019ve read the article and formulated some thoughts, check out some\u00a0responses<\/a>. Feel free to incorporate their arguments into yours, or refute them.<\/p>\n Text analysis in digital scholarship takes large bodies of texts (corpora) and uses digital tools to find relationships between words and concepts. This sort of analysis has been happening for decades, to the point where the first thing many scholars think about when discussing digital humanities is text analysis. While it is difficult to learn, projects like\u00a0Google\u2019s Ngram Viewer<\/a>\u00a0has made working with texts easier. Today, we\u2019ll look at some text analysis projects and the tools behind them, including\u00a0Voyant Tools<\/a>.<\/p>\n Similar to text analysis, network analysis is a way to find relationships between things. Think of it along the lines of the game Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon \u2026 if you\u2019ve ever played this, you\u2019ve already done network analysis! Today we will look at a few different ways network analysis is part of the Digital Humanities conversation and develop a basic network visualization with the Onodo tool.<\/p>\n We will hold a brief WordPress workshop that will be driven by your needs. Bring questions and problems you want to solve!<\/p>\n Independence Day, paid day off!<\/p>\n And now for something completely different \u2026 today we will take a field trip to the West Building to have a 3D printing workshop with Eric Remy from Educational Technology. This is a chance to have fun, but also to think about the idea of making in the humanities, and how prototyping, creating, failing, and revising are all important lessons to learn.<\/p>\n For this installment of DH in Context, we will be looking at how the creators of digital projects articulate the value of their work and justify the choices they make regarding subject matter, methodology, and digital tools or platforms. This week we will focus on the disciplines of English Literature, History, Art History, and Archaeology.<\/p>\n
