The HathiTrust Research Center (HTRC) provides research support for the growing corpus of over fourteen million volumes in the HathiTrust Digital Library (HTDL) through a suite of tools for text analysis. This session will introduce attendees to the research services developed by the HTRC. Nicholae Cline and Leanne Nay will also demonstrate HathiTrust+Bookworm and the HTRC Portal, two web-based tools that are ideal for introducing students and scholars to text analysis.
The process of converting the digitized MDPI media into something that can be used for web delivery is conceptually simple: transcode each one into derivatives and transfer them to the delivery system. However, like most things, the devil is in the details. Data corruption, tape latency, and managing large amounts of data are just a few of the problems which must be overcome.
This session will follow the steps that MDPI digital objects take during processing and explore the solutions used to create a system which must reliably process hundreds of hours of audio and video content daily.
One, Two is a self-portrait. The image of me as a boy is split left and right, one side the echo of the other. In the audio, a single claves strike, doubled at the octave, mirrors the visual motif. The video, developing in multiple planes, and the audio, mirroring that development in multiple voices, express a time object – a moment continuously redefined – unified by its genesis in a single image, a single sound. One, Two is composed in Bogen (arch) form, a musical architecture. The piece begins in unity, develops to maximum complexity at mid-point, then resolves again to unity at the end. –Michael Lasater
Annunciation is a video object operating within the aesthetic of painting. Each panel's background cycles through images sampled from an original digital abstract composition. One sees this composition in fragments across time controlled by an algorithm derived from 12-tone musical composition in which no fragment is repeated until all are shown. The motion background plays against and through the static black/white paired elements in the foreground, making them appear somewhat unstable. In the audio a noise sound floor supports a repeated claves + voice pair mirroring the motion + static structure of the video. The composition chases György Ligeti’s idea of using time to hold on to time, suspending its disappearance, confining it in the always present moment. –Michael Lasater
Though spring has been slow to arrive, baseball is already here! To bring us up to speed on this year's IU baseball team, Through the Gates welcomes head coach Chris Lemonis.
Lemonis is now in his second season as head coach of the Hoosiers, and today he'll tell host Jim Shanahan about the joys and challenges of coaching baseball in the Big Ten.
A look back at some of the interesting personalities who appeared on Through the Gates, including Tom French, Jonathan Banks, Robbie Benson, Kate Lilley, Lilly King, Lee Hamilton and Monika Herzig.
IU Libraries Dina Kellams and Michelle Crowe join Jim and Janae to talk about Indiana University holiday facts, traditions, and more. This episode marks the end of season 1 of Through the Gates.
Glenn Gass, Provost Professor of Music in the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University, talks to us about Elvis Presley, the Beatles, and the history of rock music and the rock era.
