Institute for Digital Arts & Humanities, Mary Borgo Ton
Summary:
How do we encourage students to read material closely and carefully? What can mark-up show us about the content and context of archival material? This workshop discusses TEI, an internationally-recognized mark-up language, as a framework for analyzing literature, historical documents, and images. We'll use a paper-based activity to explore the manuscript of Frankenstein with a particular focus on the content and editorial history of Mary Shelley's classic novel. No prior experience with mark-up languages needed!

This workshop will include an introduction to proposal writing and best practices, as well as a discussion of funding opportunities for social science and social science methodology.
"The thing that people forget, is that most elections are actually decided by the people that don't vote."
Professor Paul Helmke, Associate Director of P.A.C.E. Lisa-Marie Napoli, and Dean Shanahan talk about the importance of midterm elections, beating Purdue in the Big Ten Voting Challenge, and the power of student voters.
This lecture presents results of a project on folk medicine among Latinx in Los Angeles in which 131 interviews were conducted with 49 individuals, more than half of whom were healers associated with botánicas. Contrary to a number of previous reports, research data reveal that the healers were not poorly educated, unsophisticated, or adversaries of biomedical care; that clientele were not exclusively Latinx; and that a number of long-standing assumptions in works on Latinx healing traditions should be reassessed. The present study of ethnomedical treatment offers insight into needs and concerns that could inform the healthcare profession in regard to one of the largest and most underserved populations in the US.
Richard Dorson was right seeing the antiquarians as the precursors of the study of folklore. Many of them recorded information on “traditions.” However, he did not really understand the rationale behind their work, mixed up in Tudor politics, especially the religious aspects. (The “first” work on folklore in English is an anti-“Puritan” tract.) When Herder and the Grimm Brothers came along in the 18th and early 19th centuries, there was already a body of lore in English which could be transferred to fit in with their ideas. The Grimm Brothers, and the “antiquary-folklorist” Thomas Wight are responsible for developing ideas about survivals, an idea to influence folklore and anthropology for 75 years.
In episode 82, Dean Shanahan speaks to Aman Sethi about demonetization, digitization, and control as part of IU's India Remixed arts and humanities festival. Sethi is associate editor at the Hindustan Times.
Higginbottom article: parody settings of operatic French overtures by Jean-Baptiste Lully (contemporaneous to the composer's lifetime). George Barth article: historical recordings dating chiefly from the early-twentieth century, with modern style-parody recordings deriving from late-nineteenth century style.

P. Sainath, the former Rural Affairs Editor at The Hindu, where he forced public attention to India’s epidemic of farmer suicides, will discusses relationship between journalism, cultural documentation, and social justice. His current project, the People’s Archive of Rural India (ruralindiaonline.org) is a volunteer-sustained multimedia website documenting everyday life, cultural traditions, and socioeconomic and environmental challenges across India, with special attention to women’s labor. Among his many career awards are the 2007 Ramon Magsaysay Award (the “Asian Nobel”) and the first Amnesty International’s Global Human Rights Journalism Prize in 2000. His 1996 book, Everybody Loves a Good Drought: Stories from India’s Poorest Districts, was reissued as a Penguin Classic in 2012.
The Indiana University Libraries Scholars' Commons opened in 2014, offering a place for hands-on training sessions and presentation series such as the Digital Library Brown Bag Series. Additionally, groups and departments from within and outside the Libraries began offering consultation sessions in the Scholars' Commons, often discussing the same topics as these events with faculty, staff members, and students. Throughout this time, various streams of data were collected in the form of sign-in sheets, post-event surveys, and consultation tracking forms. Could these data sets be used to tell us more than just the numbers of attendees? In late 2017, Erika Jenns, former Scholarly Engagement Librarian, and I conducted analyses on approximately three years of data collected from consultation, presentation, and workshop events held in the Indiana University Libraries Scholars' Commons. This presentation will highlight trends gleaned from these findings and will attempt to answer questions such as:
What is the best time to offer a workshop?
Who is attending consultation sessions, presentations, and workshops at the Indiana University Libraries?
What tools and technologies could be taught more frequently in workshops due to high interest in consultation sessions?
This builds upon previous analyses by Michelle Dalmau, Head of Digital Collections Services, that compares local digital scholarship activities with data from a 2014 Ithaka S+R report on digital humanities at four research institutions, including Indiana University. This presentation will also detail how all of this analysis can be used to inform future programming development and approaches to consultations in the Scholars' Commons.
Overleaf (recently merged with ShareLaTex) provides a collaborative interactive platform for writing, editing, and publishing articles. Overleaf also offers a variety of templates to create assignments, syllabi, reports, presentations, and newsletters.
In this workshop you will learn about Overleaf and LaTeX, a markup language, which enables you to separate your context from formatting (e.g., font, size, margins), thus allowing you to concentrate solely on your ideas. Particularly, using LaTeX is beneficial if your writing incorporates formulae, equations, glosses or your journal requires a specific article format and bibliographic style.

Indiana University's Lilly Library acquired a large collection of the papers of Orson Welles in the late 1970s, and with it nearly six hundred recordings of his iconic series First Person Singular, Mercury Theatre on the Air, and Campbell Playhouse, as well as more obscure gems, mostly originals cut directly from the broadcasts as they aired. And yet the collection guide listed only "tapes," reformatted from the unmentioned originals. The presentation will discuss how the discs were 'rediscovered,' the problem of multiple formats in traditional archival descriptive practices, and IU's project to digitize and make publicly available the original disc recordings.
The Orson Welles on the Air project has digitized the discs and associated scripts. In creating the publicly available web site, the project team used Omeka, an application that the group had a lot of experience with, but this time faced a new use case that required the integration of audio and image interfaces. Omeka has a plugin that works with the audio in Media Collections Online (Avalon Media Systems), but how to integrate the scripts? And how to handle playback of radio programs spread across multiple files/disc sides?
Using standard plugins for Omeka, we were able to create a web site that would allow audio playback while simultaneously allowing the user to page through images of the script. In this presentation, we will demo the new site and show how we added the linked audio and print pages.
There are many tools and platforms for creating data visualizations, but in order to ensure they communicate in an effective way, your visualizations must be grounded in the appropriate quantitative methods. In this workshop, we will present some problematic humanities datasets and case studies, and use them to walk through the structure and assumptions your data will need to meet in order to create effective data visualizations. Introductory quantitative methods and vocabularies will be presented.
At times more complex data visualizations are necessary to communicate your argument and explore the multiple dimensions of your dataset. This hands-on session will start you down the path towards employing statistical methods to communicate your argument, and will give you a chance to bring your own data and work through options for visualizations. During the workshop we will use two sample datasets to discuss how they were prepared and structured to enable comparison with regression analysis. We'll discuss regression analysis and how you can compare two datasets in a way that ensures you're getting useful information.
Digital tools for mapping, data visualization, and network analysis offer opportunities to discover, answer, and present research for scholars working in the arts and humanities. But these methods require moving your evidence and research into a data structure appropriate for your chosen tool. In this workshop, we'll discuss the types of decisions you'll encounter when representing your humanities evidence in a digital environment and best practices for structuring your research data for use in a number of digital tools.
Digital image manipulation, social network analysis, and data mining can change our perceptions of the world around us, but they also require careful, critical use. This presentation will take arts & humanities practitioners through mapping, data mining, network analysis, data visualization, 3D rendering, computationally aided vision, and other digital methods in a variety of disciplines and tackle some of the critical issues for digital arts and humanities practitioners.
This workshop will introduce basic information visualization concepts and discuss their implementation within R analyses (ggplot2) and for Web (D3, Shiny, and Jupyter).
