SUMMARY:Translating Questions into Actionable Research
DESCRIPTION:Researchers are often driven by a hunch\, a practical problem or a gap in existing knowledge. However\, successfully translating research questions into data collection and analysis methods requires skills and experience. This workshop will review commonly used methods for collecting primary sources data (questionnaires\, interviews\, observations)\, as well as qualitative and quantitative approaches to data analysis. At the end of the workshop\, participants will have a better understanding of methodological options and issues that affect their research inquiries.

SUMMARY:Critical Data Methods: Theory & Praxis
DESCRIPTION:Whether in the classroom or archive\, humanities scholars and students often encounter data methods as means to an end. Processes like data modeling\, analysis\, and visualization — sometimes represented by particular applications or technologies — populate the proverbial DH toolbox\, equipping practitioners to pursue data-driven research and project-based learning curricula. But\, while these data-oriented skills and tools frequently facilitate incredible research and classroom practice\, they aren’t always accompanied by a robust critical framework that centers historical\, ethical\, and justice-oriented concerns. \nIn this workshop\, we will approach basic concepts in data (including data taxonomies and applications) from a critical data studies perspective. Rather than taking a tool- or software-oriented approach\, we will collaborate on ways to “do” and teach data that are informed by feminist\, critical race\, and indigenous theories of information. Keeping in mind this year’s theme — “Histories and Representations of Communities Across the Five Boroughs” — we will engage with local archival materials and other humanities content in order to develop data praxes that are situated and self-reflective. \nParticipants can expect to: \n\nbecome familiar with types of data\, including structured and unstructured data\nthink critically about ways to model their research or teaching data\nbegin to explore key theorists and concepts in critical data studies\, including data feminism\nparticipate in an exercise that enacts critical data pedagogy by bringing humanities methods to data modeling\nsituate their own use of data within historical and epistemological matrices\ncollaborate on a shared document featuring critical data resources\n\nThis workshop is designed for humanities scholars and students who are interested in pursuing data-driven work and who want to develop critical — rather than purely instrumental — data practices. Instructors and researchers who already work extensively with data are also welcome\, regardless of discipline! \nEquipment Requirements: Laptop recommended (Chromebooks OK) \n

SUMMARY:The Making and Knowing Project’s Digital Critical Edition and English Translation of a 16th-c. Manuscript of Artisanal Recipes
DESCRIPTION:The Making and Knowing Project (Center for Science and Society\, Columbia University) is excited to present Secrets of Craft and Nature in Renaissance France—a digital critical edition and English translation of a sixteenth-century French manuscript of artisanal recipes. The publication of this edition marks the culmination over five years of iterative\, collaborative\, and interdisciplinary work by over 400 scholars and students worldwide. The transcribed\, translated\, and encoded text of BnF Ms Fr 640 is accompanied by research essays\, field notes from recipe reconstructions in the Making and Knowing Laboratory\, text-level editorial comments\, a glossary of terms\, search and navigation features\, and raw data files for export and analysis. \nIn this demonstration\, the Project team will present the edition and its features. Digital Lead Terry Catapano and Designer-Developer Nick Laiacona will discuss the challenges and workarounds in creating a function-rich static site\, and Laiacona will present work-in-progress toward the creation of a “community edition\,” an open-source customizable version of the edition infrastructure—in other words\, a community software platform that other scholars and students can use to present their own texts. The Project team will conclude by demonstrating some of the textual analyses made possible by its custom semantic markup. \nEquipment: Laptop (optional) \n

SUMMARY:Getting Started with TEI
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is a deep introduction to the theory and practice of encoding electronic texts for the humanities. It is designed for students who are interested in the transcription and digitization of manuscripts and print-based texts into diplomatic\, digital formats. The workshop contains three parts: first\, an overview of TEI and the major schemas; second\, a quick introduction and tutorial on one or more applications used for encoding; and finally\, for the bulk of the workshop\, students will get the opportunity to practice encoding a manuscript page in small groups. Throughout this work\, we will discuss common issues with encoding\, such as how to tag complex data. In addition to familiarizing themselves with TEI and its theoretical contexts\, students will leave with knowledge about using Github\, oXygen\, and XSLT. \nEquipment: Bring a laptop. If you cannot bring your own\, you can borrow one from us for the session.

SUMMARY:Zine Union Catalog: Bringing Together Disparate\, Unruly Data
DESCRIPTION:The Zine Union Catalog\, or ZineCat\, is a catalog built on Collective Access\, a digital asset manager similar to\, but with more complete metadata connectors than Omeka. ZineCat brings together records from six libraries with wildly different metadata schema. They are public\, academic\, community\, and digital libraries using RDA\, xZINECOREx\, LibraryThing\, and homegrown/standalone schema. Lauren Kehoe and Jenna Freedman developed the functional prototype as their CUNY Graduate Center MADH capstone\, building on work begun in the zine librarian community in 2009 and adhering to the Zine Librarians Code of Ethics\, which establishes standards for honoring the needs of authors and creators’ wants\, needs\, and changing identities. ZineCat still has a long way to go\, in terms of functionality\, but with over 31\,000 records from its first six member libraries\, it is already serving zine creators\, scholars\, and lay readers’ needs. \n

SUMMARY:Devotion in Virtual Reality: Rome’s Grottapinta - a Demonstration
DESCRIPTION:The madonnelle (street shrines) of Rome are vernacular expressions of religious devotion traced to the thirteenth century. Recent interventions\, intended to restore the shrines as important cultural artifacts\, inadvertently risk displacing their devotional communities. This demonstration presents an ongoing research project on the perception of a virtual replica of the Grottapinta\, in the increasingly touristic zone of the Campo de’ Fiori that was recently “restored” by the Capella Orsini Lab (in an adjoining deconsecrated church). The virtual Grottapinta allows us to assess user interactions with an informal\, vernacular “sacred space\,” testing fundamental questions concerning learned versus anthropological responses to such spaces\, and how restoration shapes viewers’ responses.\nThe shrine was recreated virtually by using photogrammetry (Agisoft). It was subsequently imported into Unity and optimized for user studies in virtual reality employing HTC Vive headset. The demonstration will be through videos taken during the testing and will describe the modeling process and technical challenges of recreating the experience of the Grottapinta itself\, based on the initial user studies and surveys. We will conclude with a discussion of very early results and implications for similar communities and devotional sites throughout New York.\n \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Helen Keller Archive: A Fully Accessible Digital Archive
DESCRIPTION:American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) staff\, and members of the project team will demonstrate the features of AFB’s fully accessible digital Helen Keller Archive. This digital collection is pioneering in that it is accessible to visitors who are blind\, deaf\, hard of hearing and deafblind\, as well as sighted and hearing audiences. \nHelen Keller was a leading advocate for people with visual impairments\, and likely the most famous person with a disability in the 20th century. Moreover\, she loved NYC! Helen\, her teacher Anne Sullivan Macy\, and their assistant Polly Thomson lived in Forest Hills\, Queens from 1917 until two years after Anne’s death in 1936\, at which time Helen and Polly moved to Westport\, Connecticut. Manhattan was home to AFB’s headquarters\, first on 46th Street\, and then on 16th Street (the latter building is now the Center for Jewish History). Helen Keller and blindness advocacy are intertwined with NYC\, and Keller wrote about New York’s landmarks and commuted regularly to AFB’s offices in Manhattan. \nNavigating to digitized documents that focus on these topics\, the digital project team will lead attendees through the digital archive\, explaining the challenges of creating a fully accessible collection and its ins and outs. \nEquipment: Laptops optional
