Keynote at Digital Music Lab workshop, British Library, March 13th 2015.
The talk sets out to review digital humanities projects that show the use and re-use of data, and to use these examples to frame a debate about how DH approaches to working with data can test new methods and approaches to working in the humanities
What does this mean for humanities research that use Big Data, and in return, what do the humanities have to offer the wider Big Data community through these approaches: what do the humanities, especially the digital humanities, bring to the big data party?

This talk explores the convergence of literary GIS as a methodological approach and the use of platforms such as Neatline, a plugin for Omeka exhibits that allows the developer to tell spatial stories in time. With the proliferation of platforms such as Omeka and Neatline for large and small scale projects,I argue that it is incumbent upon digital humanists to critically reflect not only on the technological affordances of GIS as a methodical approach, but also the positivistic pursuit of mappable data which has been said to elide “hidden chronologies” or complex social spaces such as gendered domestic environments, spaces not easily charted with the use of points, lines, and polygons. In order to do so, I will drawn from my own experiences building the urban compliment to David Cooper and Ian Gregory’s “Mapping the Lakes” (MTL), which composes an interactive digital map that plots William Wordsworth’s walking route detailed in his autobiographical poem The Prelude, particularly Book Seven, “Residence in London.” Similar to the MTL project, the aim of Mapping Wordsworth’s Conspicuous Consumption (MWCC) is not simply to visualize placenames within a poem, but to “open up methodological and critical space for the ongoing development of literary GIS.” This will be the first project of its kind to trace (or essentially hypothesize) the walking route of Wordsworth's “Residence in London” in Book Seven, linking the sites mentioned (and not mentioned) with images and text related to those sites on a historical map contemporaneous with three different moments: 1794-1797, 1805, and 1850.

Comparative Literature in the Age of Digital Humanities _ On Possible Future ...Hina Parmar
1.The changes brought about by new communication technologies are as profound and sweeping as the invention of print and the discovery of the New World. We are in a major transitional moment in history.
2. These technologies have both liberatory potential through democratizing information, but also a dangerous capacity for control and violence. There is an inescapable dialectical tension.
3. Humanists must involve themselves in debates about digital culture and technology to ensure corporate interests do not dominate these spaces and our cultural legacy.
4. We need new critical methods and conceptual understandings to grapple with digital texts and culture, which transform assumptions about mediation, authorship, discourse, etc.
5. The article puts forth comparative media studies, data studies, and authorship/platform studies as three avenues for a future comparative literature adapted to the digital age.
6. Models like Wikipedia illustrate the power of open, collaborative knowledge production. Institutions like universities need to think about how to integrate these models into learning.

The Intercultural Being: Fostering Cross-Cultural Interactions in a Globalize...Amanda M. Bent
Today we live in a globalized world where we engage in cross-cultural dialogue on a daily basis. As a result of our participation in this growing multicultural environment, our cultural identities are being redefined, as we transcend borders, and broaden our connections to various communities, at home and abroad. While we have achieved new levels of peace and unity, it is evident that discrimination, prejudice, and bias still plague our society and impact our interactions with others.
In this presentation I will critically examine cross-cultural interactions that take place in the ESL classroom, discussing how we as teachers can shape our students into multilingually aware and interculturally competent world citizens.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

3. How my teaching and research intersect
What are the digital humanities?
What does it (or could it) look like at North
Seattle?
4. 18th/19th century British literature
Dissertation looks at how poets used the
newly forming celebrity apparatus for both
self-promotion and to reimagine literary
forms, especially poetics
18th century media studies: literature,
newspapers and periodicals, and paintings
and prints.
5. Critical pedagogy is an “educational
movement, guided by passion and
principle, to help students develop
consciousness of freedom, recognize
authoritarian tendencies, and
connect knowledge to power and the
ability to take constructive action.”
6. Epigraph by Michel Foucault from The
Archeology of Knowledge :
◦ “Education may well be, as of right, the instrument
whereby every individual, in a society like our own,
can gain access to any kind of discourse. But we
well know that in its distribution, in what it permits
and in what it prevents, it follows the well-trodden
battle-lines of social conflict. Every educational
system is a political means of maintaining or of
modifying the appropriation of discourse, with the
knowledge and the powers it carries with it.”
7. First called “humanities computing”:
Digital humanities (DH) currently incorporate
both digitized and born-digital materials and
combine the methodologies from traditional
humanities disciplines and social sciences
with tools provided by computing (such as
data visualization, information retrieval, data
mining, statistics, text mining) and digital
publishing.
8. Collaboration
Iterative development
Open-Source
DIY
Autodidacticism
Public Scholarship
and Peer Review
Dissemination
Failure as valuable
Ad Hoc
Transparency
*DH Values found at dmdh.org
10. Archive Creation--digital preservation of
analog and born-digital materials:
Ex: “Transcribe Bentham” crowdsourcing the
transcription of thousands of manuscripts
written by Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832).
*(Omeka---a free, open-source web-publishing platform for
the display of library, museum, archives, and scholarly
collections and exhibitions)
11. Networked Pedagogy--experiments in multi-
campus digital pedagogy (funded by the NEH
Office of Humanities)
Ex: “Looking for Whitman,” which uses open-
source tools to connect classrooms in
multiple institutions, creating a dynamic,
social, collaborative learning environment.
12. Scholarly/Student Communication and
Publishing:
Ex: Zotero is an open-source extension to
Firefox and Google Chrome browsers, which
enable users to collect manage, cite and
share research source.
Ex: The Shakespeare Quarterly conducted an
experiment in open peer review for its special
issue, 61:3, “Shakespeare and New Media.” (It
received coverage in the New York Times.)
13. Text/Data Mining--text analysis tools that
can be used to analyze user provided texts.
Ex: TAPoR (Text Analysis Portal for Research)
Ex: Voyant
14. Analysis and Visualization:
Ex: Stanford University’s “Republic of Letters”
the project visualizes the “social network” of
Enlightenment Writers through analysis of
their correspondence.
Ex: HyperCities self defined as “a collaborative
research and educational platform for
traveling back in time to explore the
historical layers of city spaces in an
interactive, hypermedia environment.”
15. “Spatial Humanities” where spatial methods,
especially geographical information systems
(GIS) are being used in humanistic inquiry
17. The "Position Statement on Multimodal
Literacies" approved by the National Council
of Teachers of English (NCTE) which holds
that "Skills, approaches, and attitudes toward
media literacy, visual and aural rhetorics, and
critical literacy should be taught in
English/language arts classrooms"
18. “Outcomes statement for First-Year
Composition" adopted by the Council of
Writing Program Administrators (WPA),
students should understand and exploit the
differences in rhetorical strategies and in the
affordances available for both print and
electronic composing processes and text.
19. Essential Learning Outcomes
North Seattle Community College serves a diverse student
population with a wide variety of educational backgrounds
and goals. As a learning community, we foster and
promote the following outcomes:
Knowledge
Facts, theories, perspectives and methodologies within
and across disciplines
Intellectual & Practical Skills, including
critical thinking and problem solving
communication and self-expression
quantitative reasoning
information literacy
technological proficiency
collaboration: group and team work
20. Stanford to offer new undergraduate majors

acsen-joint-majors-030614.html
21. Modern Language Association has recently
added criteria for evaluating tenure for
professors who pursue DH projects
22. We are a community of “makers”
Coordinated Studies Requirement
Offers new ways to think about humanities
Provides students with access to another
academic (and professional) discourse*
