#DigitalHumanities
oh, hey look at this:
https://dh-tech.github.io/2023/11/29/Call-for-Projects-for-RSE-Consultation/
"DHTech is looking for #DigitalHumanities project teams in the US planning to develop software who would benefit from consulting with a Research Software Engineer (RSE) on their technical implementation plan. Teams accepted for this call will be matched with an appropriate RSE. Teams must be willing to meet with their assigned consultant at least five times over the course of five months, and plan to start the development ..."
It's a brisk morning in the Bay Area, and today we're talking #AI alignment and (un)safety so I decided on the #PlagueDoctor dress and part 1 of the AI class data weaving.

Auf nach #Hildesheim. Und ihr so morgen am 30.11.? #ChronoEvents #DigitalHumanities https://mprove.de/chronolab/event/index.html
in der #verschlagwortung heute: #digitalhumanities, "Marian maternity" im spätmittelaltl. england, aging studies & ecocriticism sowie ebooks zu diversität & sprachwissenschaft und – aus der pflicht – einer eltern-suche (als manga) und einem bürgerkrieg. #fachreferatsfreitag
Was mich immer wieder mit Erstaunen erfüllt, ist die herablassende Verachtung mancher Kreise in den #DigitalHumanities für standardisierte Serialisierungen von Annotationslayern in z.B. TEI/XML oder JSON bei gleichzeitigem Vertrauen darin, dass LLMs ohne Probleme NER und Disambiguieren auf historischen Quellen durchführen können. Wie halten wir denn dann die Ergebnisse dieser Prozesse fest? Soll das jedes Mal ad hoc über eine flache Textdatei laufen? #Wot?!

Well, I can provide some unbaked ideas:
Data analysis starts with data literacy.
I need to know the "shape of data" and how it's captured/produced. And I need to know how to transform 'wild' data into structured data & how to work with them.
Those are the base on which the house of data analysis can be built.
(And as an aside: If the base isn't built properly, the whole house will collapse)
#DigitalHumanities #Data
I would be most grateful to anyone here who might be willing to share examples of a syllabus (or ideas for one) for a course for undergraduates on data analysis for the humanities. #digitalhumanities

Digital Innovation of the Year
Digital Benin, launched in 2022, praised for its database on Benin Bronzes, is relaunching with 5,000 archival documents. The platform addresses restitution debates while updating incomplete data from the National Museum in Lagos. Challenges include documenting returns to Nigeria amid ownership uncertainties. Digital Benin aims to be a prototype for similar research platforms.

Been prodding the new `/magazine/title` endpoint that was added to #Trove API v3. It provides details on periodical titles and issues (other than newspapers). So it's very useful, but also very not...
Of the 2,504 titles, 1,538 point to sets of parliamentary papers. I suppose annual reports count as periodicals, but it would be good to be able to separate them out. In any case I've already got a full harvest of PPs.
Of the 966 left, 114 have no issues. That seems to be either because they're actually issues rather than titles, or they're just brokened.
Another 124 titles have incomplete lists of issues, either because some of the issues have no date, or they're just brokened.
So as with just about everything involving Trove data, I'll have to develop a series of workarounds to deal with the problems and inconsistences. This is my life now. #TroveDataGuide #GLAM #digitalHumanities

The books contain traces of previous owners or users, e.g., handwritten names or notes. They tell stories about the rich cultural and intellectual history of this region, which was once called Frisia.

Today, we at the National Archives have officially released an open base-model for handwriting recognition. It works best on Swedish manuscripts from about 1650 - 1900.
By basic model it is meant that it has two intended areas of use:
1. To HTR large amounts of images of handwritten text with good enough quality to index the text for search.
2. To function as a starting point for using own training data to create more specialized HTR models.

Was ist Digital Humanities? Das ist die Frage, der ich mit den Studierenden der Uni Regensburg im Rahmen der Einführungsvorlesung des DH-Masterprogrammes heute nachgehe. Und genau das habe ich für diesen Post auch mal die bildgenerierende KI der Design-App Canva gefragt. Das Ergebnis ist gar nicht schlecht.

We have a really interesting #research #fellowship for anyone in Art & Culture and #digitalHumanities for responsible AI use at #IKEA working very closely with our #digitalEthics team (and me 😁)

We run a db which has entries on people. The initial spreadsheet had a "gender" field with "M" "F" or nil. The Director of the project wants more nuance, and has asked us to write a "controlled vocabulary for gender identity"
I'm wary of this: There's no way we can control that vocab, I feel uneasy assigning gender to people, and the vast majority of people would have no definitive source
The director says that having a gender field allows researchers to able to search "male" "female" "nonbinary", etc. people and compare
Does anyone have articles I can send to the director explaining the complexities of this matter? It would be especially useful if there are some from a librarian or archivist perspective. The director sent us information from the LOC, but those were for categorizing resources not entries for people
New #introduction: I’m Oschinsky Research Associate at Cambridge Univ Library, Fellow of Girton College, & a #MedievalManuscripts scholar & cataloguer. My research mainly focuses on later #medieval European #manuscripts with an emphasis on #quantitative methods, materiality, & provenance. I’m about to publish a book on #parchment & have started writing another on legal manuscripts. 📜🪶📚

Es ist soweit, ich habe wieder in die Tasten gehauen und gebloggt. Diesmal zu meiner Masterarbeit in den #DigitalHumanities und dem #PeterHaberPreis ✨ Es geht um Sterne, Knowledge Graphs und Linked Open Data: https://dhdhi.hypotheses.org/8586
Today was the first meeting of the Stanford LitLab, and I thought I'd get into the spooky spirit in a dress of dead DH projects. Can't guarantee it's totally free of editorializing... #DHsewing #DigitalHumanities
I have a new article!
It’s about photostats, the copying technology that transformed how libraries circulate information and set the stage for microfilm, photocopy, and digitization. I ask how librarians came to define a good copy - and what that means for copies today.
DM for a copy.
Thanks to amazing editors @wynkenhimself and Jesse Erickson 📚
#SUCHO won the Grand Prix for Heritage Champions at the Europa Nostra Cultural Heritage awards tonight in Venice! 🇺🇦💙💛 #DigitalHumanities #Ukraine
In case you're curious what we're up to in the undergrad #AI class that counts for humanities or social science distribution requirements at Stanford, I've posted the syllabus here. More notes, materials, resources and adjustments to come! #DigitalHumanities
Another energizing meeting of our AI in the Classroom faculty learning community. Today we explored ways of transforming our pedagogy to be more process-oriented, and folks workshopped assignments they’re developing either to incorporate generative AI or teach critical AI literacy
Busy abusing my organizational power today...
Me: Technically my job is to support digital humanities here, but that's really broadly defined.
New Friend: Digital humanities includes textiles?!
Me: Well, I've decided it does, and as the co-President of the US association for DH, I say it's legit.
🧵 2/ There are two lessons I recommend when starting w/ #NetworkAnalysis in a #DigitalHumanities context: https://programminghistorian.org/en/lessons/creating-network-diagrams-from-historical-sources by @martenduering and https://programminghistorian.org/en/lessons/exploring-and-analyzing-network-data-with-python by @scott_bot et al. They give a solid foundation in a language that is easy to understand & have step-by-step instructions one can follow nicely. Additionally, I recommend checking out the collection of useful materials on https://historicalnetworkresearch.org/ @HNR. And, as always, be bold! Try out things, test, fail, try again!
It's the first day of classes, so I guess that means it's officially fall. Time for the usual quarterly write-up of what I was up to all summer: https://digitalhumanities.stanford.edu/dlcl-ats-roundup-summer-2023/ #DigitalHumanities
Im Wintersemester biete ich an der @uniheidelberg die Lehrveranstaltung
