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.
This collection of videos to accompany the book, Styling Blackness in Chile: Music and Dance in the African Diaspora, provides examples of the different ways of styling Blackness as described in the book.

Ed Spray’s legacy in the world of television includes dozens of industry awards, the programming of five CBS television stations and the creation of three cable networks. It culminates in his tenure as president of Scripps Networks, home of HGTV and the Food Network. But it begins in IU’s Radio-Television Building.
Spray left his hometown of Seymour, Indiana, to major in radio and television with a minor in journalism at IU. He served as president of Sigma Delta Chi Journalism Society, vice president of his fraternity Kappa Delta Rho and member of the IU Student Foundation. He also earned spare change by shooting film of campus activities for Indianapolis TV stations. Upon graduating in 1963, he married Donna Cornwell, a fellow IU student pursuing a bachelor’s and master’s degree in elementary education.
As he worked toward his master’s degree in communications at IU, Spray served as a part-time producer/director for IU Radio and Television Services. He graduated in 1969 and landed his first job as a film editor at WISH-TV Indianapolis, eventually moving on to WMAQ-TV Chicago, an NBC-owned television station. There, Spray gradually rose to producer/director and won five Chicago Emmy Awards during his next nine years of work.
Spray left WMAQ but stayed in Chicago, taking a job as director of broadcasting at CBS-owned station WBBM-TV. There, he led one of the most prolific and celebrated programming operations in commercial television, earning nearly all of the industry’s most iconic and coveted awards, including two national Emmys, two Peabodys, several DuPont Columbia Awards, Edward R. Murrow documentary awards and more than 75 local Emmys.
In 1986, Spray transferred to Los Angeles CBS-owned station KCBS, where he served as station manager. He was eventually promoted to a CBS corporate vice president position, which put him in charge of developing national programming for the CBS Television Stations group.
Spray left Los Angeles six years later, in 1992, opting to transition to higher education full-time. He taught as an associate professor at Syracuse University’s S.I. Newhouse School of Communications.
In 1994, he was hired by the E.W. Scripps Company to launch a home and garden cable television network, better known now as HGTV. He co-founded the network and was initially responsible for producing, scheduling and promoting HGTV content. Two years later, the company acquired the Food Network and assigned Spray to lead the relaunch of the network with the new highly successful format it uses today. In 1999, the company started its third network — DIY — and established Scripps Networks, naming Spray president. In his time as president, the company launched a fourth network — now called the Cooking Channel, launched HGTV Canada and acquired two more existing cable networks.
Spray retired in 2005 and was named a distinguished professor of journalism and communications at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, where he taught for four years. He was inducted into the Indiana Journalism Hall of Fame in 2004. In 2012, the Chicago Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences honored him with membership in the Chicago Silver Circle, an award that recognized his outstanding contributions to Chicago television.
In episode 96, Dean Shanahan and IU Soul Revue Director James Strong talk about soul music, the Soul Revue and Strong's time in the industry, working with artists from New Edition to Kenneth 'Babyface' Edmonds, to Stephanie Mills.
As government funding tightens, folklorists are turning to the private sector for funding. However, we come up against funders who do not understand folklore or the value of funding folklore projects. Participate in a discussion with grantors from business, corporate, private, and family foundations about how to create partnerships for successful fundraising. How do we engage and inform potential funders about the impact of supporting folklore projects that benefit a diverse and inclusive audience?
In episode 107, Dean Shanahan and Jon Racek, senior lecturer in the IU School of Art, Architecture + Design's comprehensive design program, talk about Racek's start as a firm-owning designer, his foray into playground building and his most recent work in 3D-printing prosthetic hands.
In Ep. 100, Dean Jim Shanahan is joined by Michael McRobbie, President of Indiana University. Tune in to hear about President McRobbie's work on the national Committee on the Future of Voting, the challenges facing our election process, and the debate of paper versus electronic voting.
Classical applications of instrumental variables analysis are justified by structural models of behavior, and assumptions about the relationship between measured and unmeasured variables. Experimental and quasi-Experimental research designs present a partial alternative to structural modeling that is useful for answering certain types of research questions. It turns out that instrumental variables analysis can also help us make sense of several different research designs.
This workshop will introduce the key assumptions involved in instrumental variables analysis from the perspective of research design. It will examine the way instrumental variables can play a role in the analysis of data from (i) classical randomized experiments, (ii) experiments that mix randomization and participant choice, and (iii) surveys that suffer from nonresponse. In each case, research designs justify some instrumental variable assumptions and not others. Examples and best practices for applied research will be discussed throughout.

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.

Summary:
I have been writing about Vietnam since 1982 and learned much about the war and peace from participants on both sides of the brutal conflict. In my presentation, I want to share how participants in the war from the so-called “winning side” have helped me to better understand not just the war, but also the sense of loss that is often shared with those on the “losing side”. This despair for “what might have been” or “hope and vanquished reality” unites both sides. I am especially interested in participants’ stories as told in memoirs, oral histories and personal interviews. For this presentation, I will focus on those individuals with whom I have engaged in extensive and multiple interviews/discussions and who, with one exception, have also produced memoirs from their experiences in war. The one exception is Pham Xuan An, whose memories and stories are recorded in my book Perfect Spy. Each of these participants helped me understand the war through the eyes of a Vietnamese and altered my own narrative for how I speak and write about the war.

Dr. Talbert will present an overview of the status of the opioid epidemic, review a range of state policy interventions and outcomes, and discuss lessons learned and future challenges.
In episode 86, Emily Miles speaks with Barbara Restle, environmental activist and press freedom advocate. A childhood in 1930s Austria, where Nazi occupation came to suppress independent reporting, led Restle to eventually study journalism at Indiana University. In 2017, Restle contributed funding to the Media School for the study of the Freedom of Information Act and confidential source protections. The music in this episode comes from Greta Keller, Bela Bartok, Jahzzar and Doctor Turtle.
The Sample: In this episode of The Sample, the team flips back fifty years to 1968. Through The Ballantonian, a weekly liberal arts review run from September 1967 to January 1969 by Indiana University students, we offer the year's poetry, criticism and politics. Special thanks to the director of University Archives, Dina Kellams.
Limited to a Bolex, a tripod, a light meter, and 100 feet of Kodak 16mm B&W reversal film, we captured the film digitization phase of the Media Digitization and Preservation Initiative (MDPI) at Indiana University in Bloomington, IN.

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.
The Sample: In this episode of The Sample, we take a jog through the IU Lilly Library's Slocum Puzzle Collection. We work from Rubik's Cubes to Hot Miso Soup on a tour of the interdisciplinary fun of puzzles.
In episode 79, Dean Shanahan speaks to Joan Hawkins, associate professor at the IU Media School, about the Wounded Galaxies festival and symposium.
Wounded Galaxies: 1968 – Beneath the Paving Stones, the Beach is a festival and symposium produced by The Burroughs Century Ltd., welcoming scholars, writers, artists, archivists, filmmakers, performers, and others interested in exploring the intellectual and aesthetic legacy of 1968, during its 50th Anniversary year.
The festival subtitle is a translation of the French slogan “Sous les pavés, la plage!,” a popular resistance graffiti in France Mai ’68 that refers to both the sand beneath cobblestones lifted by students to hurl at police as well as the ‘Situationist’ conviction that the streets–the expression of capital and consumption–could be rediscovered by abandoning a regimented life.
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.
For both theoretical and logistical reasons, many social scientists turn to media texts—archival newspapers, radio and television broadcasts, podcasts, Twitter feeds, etc.—to understand the society that produced them. It may seem easy, because as a regular consumer and producer of media, you are already constantly analyzing the mediated discourse around you: parsing sentences, assessing the veracity of a claim, and making judgments as to the authority, intelligence, and background of a writer or speaker. But how might you denaturalize your “native” media literacy and go about this in a more systematic and rigorous way? In this hands-on workshop, we will sample some of the key methods for analyzing mediated discourse: transcription, critical discourse analysis, building and working with a corpus, capturing digital circulation, and multimodal analysis. Some examples will come from Russian media, but this workshop is open to all IU graduate students.
Python has become the lead instrument for data scientists to collect, clean, and analyze data. As a general purpose programming language, Python is flexible and well-suited to handle large datasets. This workshop is designed for social scientists, who are interested in using Python, but have no idea where to start. Our goal is to "de-mystify" Python and to teach social scientists how to manipulate and examine data that deviate from the clean, rectangular survey format. Computers with Python pre-loaded are available in the SSRC on a first-come, first-served basis. This workshop is intended for social scientists who are new to programming. No experience required.
Bruce Jackson speaks about The B-Side: Negro Folklore from Texas State Prisons. A Record Album Interpretation, a production by the The Wooster Group, New York’s most celebrated experimental theater company. The B-Side is based on the classic LP, Negro Folklore from Texas State Prisons, based on Jackson’s 1964 field recordings. Peter Marks of the Washington Post called the production “ravishing,” and “a richly resonant auditory experience,” concluding that “the experience is history in melody, an a cappella song cycle that reveals how men sentenced to hard labor endured, forging bonds through music.” New York Times theater reviewer Ben Brantley named it one of the 10 best plays of the year. Jackson talks about the process of transforming his LP into theater with The Wooster Group, illustrating his presentation with photographs and audio and video clips.

This introductory workshop will walk through IBM SPSS and SAS JMP software while giving an overview of how to identify what types of data analysis tools to use for a project, along with basic “DIY” instructions. We will discuss the most common analysis tools for describing your data and performing significance tests (Correlation, T-test, ANOVA, Cross-tabs, etc), and how they should be selected based on the type of data and the type of research question you have. This is geared towards students or faculty beginning their foray into quantitative analysis of research data, would like an introduction to SPSS or JMP, or would just like to step back and get a framework for how to navigate “what analysis to use when.”
Network analysis provides a data-driven analysis and visualization exploration of relationships in digital arts & humanities, but within that umbrella is a variety of approaches to understanding interaction between elements of a system. We'll use your research question to help you think through how these relationships might work in a network analysis of your own and demonstrate how an in-classroom network-analysis activity can also help your students see relationships unfold in your discipline.
