SUMMARY:NYCDH Kickoff Event: Information and Democracy
DESCRIPTION:Following last year’s highly successful event\, NYCDH Week 2019 begins on February 4 with a kickoff gathering at Lincoln Center Campus (113 W. 60th St.\, 12th Floor). This year’s theme is Information and Democracy. The day-long event features speakers\, roundtables\, lightning talks and networking sessions. \nSchedule\nRegistration: 10-10:30\nKeynote: 10:30-11:30 – Meredith Broussard\nPanel: 11:30-12:30 – Information\, Democracy\, Archives and Absence\nLunch: 12:30-1:30\nLightning Talks: 1:30-2:15\nGraduate Student Awards and Presentations: 2:15-3:15\nBreak: 15 minutes\nRoundtable: 3:30-4:30 – DH in K-12\nDigibar: 5pm\, Empire Hotel Rooftop \nKeynote\nMeredith Broussard \nThis year’s keynote speaker will be data journalist Meredith Broussard. Ms. Broussard is an assistant professor at the Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute of New York University and the author of Artificial Unintelligence: How Computers Misunderstand the World. Her academic research focuses on artificial intelligence in investigative reporting\, with a particular interest in using data analysis for social good. She is also interested in reproducible research issues and is developing methods for preserving innovative digital journalism projects in scholarly archives so that we can read today’s news on tomorrow’s computers. \nRoundtables\nIn addition to our keynote there will be two roundtables at the NYCDH Kickoff Event: \nInformation\, Democracy\, Archives\, and Absence\nThis panel offers a historical perspective for our kick-off day’s theme of Information and Democracy. As digitization makes archives more accessible\, and as digital humanities methods such as mapping and computational analysis provide new ways of interrogating the relationship between knowledge and power\, we ask how scholars are bringing about new insights about the relationship between the social and political challenges of our present and the lost voices of our past. Panelists will build on recent discussions of what Thomas Padilla has called “engaging absence” in the archive to demonstrate how DH enables us to contemplate what we know and how we know it and democratize the production of knowledge. \nPanelists: \n\nJuber Ayala\, Library Associate Puerto Rican Community Archive\, NJ Hispanic Research & Information Center at The Newark Public Library and graduate student in Rutger’s University’s Information Science program\nAlex Gil\, Digital Scholarship Librarian at Columbia University Libraries and Affiliate Faculty of the Department of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University\nJenna Freedman – Associate Director of Communications and Zine Librarian\, Personal Librarian for transfer and commuter students and Women’s\, Gender\, & Sexuality Studies\, Barnard College\nWendy Hayden – Associate Professor\, Department of English\, Hunter College\nMeredith Broussard – Assistant Professor at the Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute of New York University (respondent)\n\nModerator: Kelley Kreitz\, Assistant Professor of English and Co-Director of Babble Lab\, Pace University \nDH in K-12\nWhat are the challenges and success stories to date in adapting DH for K-12 education\, and how might those experiences inform DH pedagogy in higher education? This panel contributes to an emerging conversation about expanding digital humanities into K-12 education. Panelists with experience running DH and computer science initiatives in public and private schools will discuss the opportunities that such initiatives provide to enhance K-12 education. They will also discuss how DH differs in a K-12 context\, and how we can strengthen the relationship between K-12 and higher education DH communities. \nPanelists: \n\nTom Liam Lynch\, Associate Professor of Educational Technology\, Co-Director of Babble Lab\, Pace University\nDave Thomas\, History Teacher\, Trevor Day School\nCheryl Wolf\, Librarian\, NYC Public Schools\nBen Samuels-Kalow\, Founder and Head of School\, Creo College Prep Charter School\, Bronx\, NY\n\nModerator: Kimon Keramidas\, Clinical Associate Professor\, NYU XE: Experimental Humanities and Social Engagement Master’s Program \nGraduate Student Award Presentations\n\nEamonn Bell (Columbia University)\, “A New Ground-Truth Data Set for Automatic Annotation Extraction from Musical Scores”\nLucia Motolinia Carballo (NYU)\, “Electoral Accountability and Local Public Goods: Evidence from a Natural Experiment in Mexico”\nKaty Gero (Columbia University)\, “Visualizing Sonority to Augment Poetry Writing”\nJohn Clegg (NYU)\, “African American Civil War Soldiers Project”\n\nFree Lunch!!\nRegistrants to the kickoff event will be provided a free lunch courtesy of Fordham University.

SUMMARY:Building a Support Structure for Digital Humanities Research Projects in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will be a hands-on experience in which participants learn about the different aspects of support necessary for planning and implementing digital humanities research projects in the classroom. The session will be structured in a jigsaw format that puts participants in teams\, assigns them functional roles (faculty member\, student\, instructional designer\, librarian\, technical staff)\, and presents them with one of two actual classroom research scenarios. New groups will then be assembled by roles for a brief information and coaching session from representatives of each of the functional groups who have experience in digital research projects. After the coaching session\, the original groups reassemble and members share what they’ve learned as they articulate a brief statement of approach to their assigned scenario. Participants will gain hands-on experience structuring collaboration to produce learning. \nRequirements: none

SUMMARY:A Digital Recreation of the Lenox Library Picture Gallery: A Contribution to the Early History of Public Museums in the United States
DESCRIPTION:David Schwittek and Sally Webster will give a Brown Bag Lunch presentation on Tuesday\, February 5\, at 12:15 pm. Their talk is entitled “A Digital Recreation of the Lenox Library Picture Gallery: A Contribution to the Early History of Public Museums in the United States.” \nThe website\, “The Digital Recreation of the Lenox Library Picture Gallery: A Contribution to the Early History of Public Art Galleries in the United States\,” is a fully interactive\, online recreation of New York’s Lenox Library Picture Gallery (1870-1911)\, published by the ejournal Nineteenth Century Art Worldwide. The Lenox Library Picture Gallery was located on the second floor of the Lenox Library (1870) on the Fifth Avenue site now home to the Frick Museum. The focus of this talk is two-fold: to view the website as a teaching and research tool for the study of collecting patterns and installation strategies of the post-Civil War\, pre-Gilded Age period (the founding of the Lenox Library was contemporaneous with the incorporation of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Fine Arts Boston)\, and to explore the site as a useful template for the reconstruction of other “lost” exhibitions for students of art and museum history\, material and visual culture\, as well as the digital humanities. \nDavid Schwittek is an award-winning artist\, designer\, and filmmaker working in New York City. His current academic interests include UI/UX design\, digital media and technology\, documentary film\, and fiber-based media. He is assistant professor of graphic design and digital media at Lehman College \nSally Webster is a much-published author in the field of American Art History including the recent essay\, “The Lenox Library: New York’s Lost Treasure House\,” published in the anthology\, New York: Art and Cultural Capital of the Gilded Age (New York: Routledge Research in Art History\, 2018). She was for many years a professor of art history at Lehman College and the Graduate Center\, CUNY.

SUMMARY:Beyond TEI: Metadata for Digital Humanities
DESCRIPTION:High-quality metadata is essential for the description\, discovery\, and preservation of DH projects. While TEI is the most used metadata standard in DH\, there is so much more to learn and explore! This course will introduce metadata schemas and standards such as Dublin Core\, VRA\, controlled vocabularies\, and linked data and RDF in the DH context. A demo of OpenRefine will be given showing metadata/data cleaning and creating custom schemas. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how to structure metadata for their projects and how to use OpenRefine. \nAttendees are encouraged to bring their own laptop\, but it is not required. \n

SUMMARY:Advanced Topics in Word Embeddings
DESCRIPTION:Word embeddings are the hottest new technology in natural language processing\, and are used across linguistic computer science\, from machine translation to information extraction and computational literary analysis. We will cover advanced topics in word embeddings\, including: document similarity analysis\, nearest-neighbor analysis\, training vector spaces\, and visualization. We will use literary texts as examples\, but the methods are applicable across disciplines\, and participants are encouraged to bring their own corpora to analyze. Python will be our workshop language\, and we will use the libraries SpaCy\, Word2Vec\, and Sense2Vec. \nRequirements: Please bring a laptop on which you’ve installed the Python libraries SpaCy\, scikit-learn\, pandas\, matplotlib\, word2vec\, and sense2vec\, as well as the `en_core_web_lg` language model. Check that you can load it successfully with `spacy.load(‘en_core_web_lg’)`. Refer to the SpaCy documentation for instructions on installing the language model. Working knowledge of Python is also necessary. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Betwyll: discover the potential of social reading
DESCRIPTION:Betwyll is a social reading app which allow people to comment text in short messages. It can be employed as a didactic tool to make students read literary texts but it can also be applied to more performative texts\, allowing people to express their skills and at the same time to build a community of readers\, which can develop outside the app. \nAttendees should bring a mobile devices (smartphone or tablets) and have the Betwyll app downloaded from Google and Apple Stores (it is free).

SUMMARY:Using IMDb as a Dataset for Digital Humanities
DESCRIPTION:Cindy Conaway\, an associate professor in Media Studies and Communication and Diane Shichtman an associate professor in Information Systems at SUNY Empire State College will discuss using the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) and its advantages and challenges as a dataset for Digital Humanities. In many ways IMDb is an excellent source for Digital Humanities projects and gives media studies scholars a new way to use Digital Humanities. The organization makes it free to download a great deal of its very robust data. However much of IMDb’s data is inconsistent\, incomplete\, and often wrong or misleading. The downloadable information is also limited to certain categories. This presentation will also discuss the challenges of interdisciplinary work\, and how changes in IMDb’s process over several years\, and differing views available to scholars can also create issues as we have found in our project tracing connections using the show Seinfeld. \nRequirements: none.

SUMMARY:Data Epistemologies: Intro to Data Taxonomies
DESCRIPTION:Increasingly\, humanities scholars are turning to data as a key element of both humanities research and teaching: as DH methods become more prevalent and accessible\, students and researchers begin to seek out\, digitize\, or generate data sets such as cartographic data for mapping\, unstructured textual data for distant reading and computational processing\, or controlled vocabularies for XML/TEI markup. \nBut it’s not always clear what forms our humanities data can and should take\, or how these structures might affect the results of our work. In this session\, participants will receive a primer in data formats and uses\, including the differences between structured\, semi-structured\, and unstructured data and the file formats they encompass. We will work together to think critically about the implications of data organization (including for ethics and accessibility) and about how data-driven projects can serve as sites of epistemological critique\, pedagogy\, and self-reflection in our work and the work of those we teach. \nThis workshop is meant primarily for humanities instructors or students who are interested in the *idea* of data-driven projects\, either as pedagogical tools or components of their own research\, but don’t feel they have the basic familiarity with data taxonomies necessary to make informed\, intentional decisions. While we won’t linger on any one particular tool or file format (except by popular demand)\, participants are encouraged to bring a laptop (Chromebooks OK) to explore some data files up close and tinker with structures. Emphasis will be on data drawn from sources pertaining to history and literature\, but I’m happy to take requests by email in advance of our meeting! \nLaptop computer recommended but not required.

SUMMARY:Doing DH at a Predominantly Technical University
DESCRIPTION:Do you work at a predominantly technical university? Are you Interested in developing curricula and degree programs in Digital Humanities? This workshop will introduce work being done to develop Digital Humanities at ITMO University in Saint-Petersburg (Russia)\, which recently established an International DH Lab co-directed by workshop instructors Antonina Puchkovskaya and Kimon Keramidas. During the workshop\, we will share the challenges of developing DH curriculum and programming at a predominantly technical university\, address the different administrative and pedagogical perspectives at tech institutions\, discuss how getting buy-in from constituencies can pose particular challenges. We will also discuss how collaborative work started during NYCDH Week 2018 led to the establishment of the center and the development of a MA in Digital Humanities that will be launching in the fall of 2019. The workshop will also cover using the cultural heritage sector to find projects and an open conversation with people already working or just starting to develop DH in environments such as this. \nRequirements: none.

SUMMARY:Beyond Bechdel: Using Computation to Analyze Gender in Film
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will explore using computational methods to analyze gender in movies. Movies lend themselves nicely to computation\, since researchers can leverage scripts\, visuals\, or metadata (e.g. genre\, year\, cast members and production crew). For example\, the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media used machine learning to automatically detect the gender of characters in top-grossing films\, which allowed them to study gender metrics at scale\, such as how many lines are given to different genders. We will spend the first part of the workshop covering studies like this one that use machine learning\, natural language processing\, and data science techniques. \nAfter the overview\, we will discuss the pros and cons of using computational methods for studying social phenomena. Then\, we will provide attendees with a dataset of movie scripts (with a pre-prepared API for basic processing functions) and let them analyze it for potential patterns we brainstorm as a group. Those who do not know how to code can be paired with those who do. Given the range of content and the interdisciplinary material\, we hope this workshop will appeal to anyone drawn to the topic\, regardless of computational background. \nRequirements: Attendees should bring their own laptop. Knowing basic Python and having Python 3 installed is a prerequisite for those who want to code at the end. For participants who don’t mind pairing up for the coding activity\, no prerequisites are required.
