Just saw that AI for Humanists tutorials are using our narrative classification data! Very excited about this. Also, amazing resource by @mellymeldubs @mattwilkens @dmimno @RosamondThalken. Here's them: https://t.co/7rU2ddeUmW. And here's us: https://t.co/748OwkH6GK

Here's an estimate of the history of dialogue in the 20C novel. We see two things: dialogue has been getting shorter (snappier?) but it roughly (and weirdly) consumes the same amount of narrative space (except in the 30-50s??). I say weird because I would not have expected it to be so constant over 100 years.

If you left academia - how did you get used to your schedule?!

Did the salary boost help?!? Genuinely curious cause every time I think about leaving, my schedule (among other things) keeps me here.

As someone who struggles to make nice looking graphs, I'm looking forward to testing this out.

.@MaciejEder introduces a new, simple method for authorship attribution. He proposes using the total number of relevant words as the normalization factor, which outperforms classical approaches by a few percentage points. #chr2022 https://t.co/9z98HtODbR

Learning from my comrades in #PurdueDH including @MarisaEY and @itsericjoseph about what #DigitalHumanities is and where rhetoric & composition fit into the melting pot

I saw a lot of maps this week. Can't stop thinking about
@miriamkp question: "What would maps and data visualizations look like if they were built to show us categories like race as they have been experienced... #DH #purdueDH

[Digital Humanities Collective @collective_dh]

Seconded

[Rhetoric and Afraid @RhetoricNAfraid]

Heard an amazing lecture from the #HuttonLectureSeries on COVID, the unhoused population(s?), and data ethics, and I'm thinking a lot of thoughts, but chief among them is data literacy among non-academic populations.

"Instead of musing about how we can get humanists to adopt GIS. . . ."

But, I would respond, humanists use GIS all the time, as a quick search on Twitter will show you.

Oh, by "humanists," you mean professional academics employed by universities. I see.

@MelmothJohn This is a good point. Although I think data is harder for those of us trained in the humanities too…

[Digital Humanities Collective @collective_dh]

@MelmothJohn Well let’s talk about it then!
