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

SUMMARY:Out of the Classroom with Fulcrum:  A Digital Note Taking App for Student Fieldwork
DESCRIPTION:For many instructors who teach in New York\, the city is seen as a pedagogical asset that can be used to extend their classroom.  As a result\, many courses include assignments that ask students to leave campus and to explore\, examine\, and evaluate the city as primary source material.  At Fordham University\, Fulcrum – a digital note-taking app – provides a flexible framework for students to document their out-of-the-classroom experience (in text\, photos\, video\, and audio) in a way that can be easily consolidated and shared with the class as a whole.  The data recorded in Fulcrum can then be extracted and visualized on any number of qualitative and/or quantitative platforms or simply explored on the FulcrumApp.com website and map. \nThis workshop will give participants access to Fulcrum and the opportunity to test this app in the neighborhood around Fordham University.  Our workshop data will then be examined back in a classroom and we will discuss how this app can benefit not only undergraduate and graduate-level courses but academic research as a whole. \nEquipment Requirements: Please bring a working (charged) cell phone if you can. \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: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:Digital Tools for Teaching Undergraduate Research: A GIS History of NYC Theatre
DESCRIPTION:In this session we will share the design and implementation of a digital mapping project used in an undergraduate class in theater history. The independent research project utilizes ESRI Story Maps software–a free online GIS software for everyday users. As part of an interdisciplinary course on theater and architecture\, students conduct research on historical sites around the city and enter the data into spreadsheets. The data and images on urban performance are projected onto a digital map of New York City\, and then narrativized into cohesive geographical and temporal units. Since the information is vast\, the project will continue to evolve as the archive grows\, and new maps can be designed to focus on specific historical phenomena in performance culture and urban architecture. Click for a preview of the Story Map: Architectural History of NYC Theatre. \nThe demonstration will include a brief overview of georeferencing\, data and image collection and attribution\, basic functionality of ESRI Story Maps\, and a description of classroom assignments for teaching and research in digital mapping. \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.
