The International Catacomb Society (@catacombsociety on Twitter, www.catacombsociety.org on the web) is looking for a skilled and experienced Wordpress Webmaster to join the ICS team as an independent contractor. This is a part-time and remote position.
Guten Tag - lange überfällig: wir sind jetzt auch #neuhier. Das #MMZ in #Potsdam ist ein An-Institut der @unipotsdam. Seit 1992 forschen wir zur jüdischen Geschichte und Gegenwart in Europa und beherbergen eine außergewöhnliche Spezial-#Bibliothek. (https://www.mmz-potsdam.de/)
Dear #DigitalHumanities and #corpus_linguistics colleagues: In order to help a colleague with a project application that may also help a project I'm involved with, I'm wondering what, if any, arguments there are for #part-of-speech-tagging as an accessibility feature? Does anyone have an example of how this can help people with non-normative functionalities?
Boosts with other hashtags appreciated. @corpuslinguistics @linguistics
I am digging through another tool registry for the #DigitalHumanities. This time it is the SSH Open Marketplace (https://marketplace.sshopencloud.eu), a multi-stakeholder, three-year infrastructure project that received substantial funding from the #EU 's #Horizon2020 programme. After the end of the initial grant-funding, the service is operated by #DARIAH, #CLARIN, and #CESSDA
Thanks to their API (yeah!), I can dig through the dataset and I am a bit puzzled by what I found: 1237 of a total of 1687 tools were directly sourced from #TAPoR (https://tapor.ca/).
Granted, this source and others are somewhat acknowledged, albeit not to the extent that I would expect when it's essentially all there is. Especially, since the site also heralds five core principles (guiding values etc. etc.), among them curation. But as it stands, the actual curation was apparently done by TAPoR and its predecessors.
I realize that I haven't shared much in the past few years about my previous work at the UVM Comp. Story Lab, where we studied phenomena like incels, k-pop, and linguistic turbulence on platforms like #Reddit and #Twitter. Explains why I know so much obscure internet lore 😅 Enjoy:
S2E3 of Gender Sex and Tech is out now. I learned so much about the gendering of sex tech, sex robots, and some of the troubling sexual tropes and scripts that exist in this area. Get it here, or wherever you get your podcasts!
Announcing the publication of the 230th #OpenAccess digital edition in the #OldEnglish Poetry in Facsimile project: Paris Psalter psalm 102 & Junius 121 102:1-5 fragment (w/ Tremulous Hand glosses!)
Plus our new favorite hapax legomenon: /gærsbedd/ ("grass-bed" - or "grave")!
That's now 18,504 lines / 60% of the OE poetic corpus edited to digital facsimile.
At the @internetarchive a light blinks on their servers every time you use their collections. What a great way to visualise the impact of free access to knowledge. Do not take libraries, museums or archives for granted, we must defend them at all costs! https://www.battleforlibraries.com
Hello Mastodon World #Introduction! I'm Josh, a Prof of Anthropology & Social Informatics at Indiana University South Bend, principal investigator w/Digital Index of North American Archaeology (DINAA). I work at intersections of people, heritage, tech, & research, love to help folks use data systems more humanely, openly, & equitably
Asking #DigitalHumanities scholars or social scientists working w/ the internet...
I've been a #solarpunk for a while now, but how would I do research on the community itself? I want a "vibe check" on what people are talking about, the sorts of arguments we tend to have, what texts/theories/people we canonize. I follow a lot of folks, but that's a mix of my interests+auto recommendations. Any way to get a view driven by my research questions, not The Algorithm?
We are delighted to have Johanna Drucker visit us in Potsdam to give a presentation on her latest book: »Inventing the Alphabet: The Origins of Letters from Antiquity to the Present« (2022).
Besides being a critical voice for the fields of #datavis and #digitalhumanities, she is interested more broadly in visual forms of knowledge production including the history of writing.
Lange überfällig: wir sind jetzt auch #neuhier. Der #Podcast ist ein Gemeinschaftsprojekt des @mmzpotsdam und des #IGdJ (Institut für die Geschichte der deutschen Juden, Hamburg).
