Last week @fortextlab.bsky.social members @evelyngius.bsky.social and @julianhaeussler.bsky.social, as well as fortext lab alum @guhrs.bsky.social, spend two intense and insightful days at #CCLS2025 in beautiful Krakow, Poland. Looking forward to the future of #CLS! @jcls-io.bsky.social

We’re looking forward to welcoming @dbamman.bsky.social to Darmstadt in early June! During his week at the fortext lab, we’ll exchange ideas, workshop our projects, and dive into shared interests in computational analysis. (1/3)

🎥 In an online workshop on on the use of AI in university teaching, organised by the workgroup Digitale Romanistik in cooperation with Text+, Mari und @haimostiemer.bsky.social are giving a presentation today on „ChatGPT as a literary writing tool“. #LLMs #ChatGPT #CLS #DHteaching

Last week was the first fortext lab-workshop of 2025! Twice a year, the fortext lab comes together for several days to look back on the past six months, reflect on our best practices for good collaboration, discuss our current research, and plan the next half-year. #CLS #DH #DigitalHumanities (1/4)

Last week I attended the @rc21project.bsky.social symposium in the beautiful Kollegienhaus in Erlangen. I appreciated the focus on theoretical considerations around concordance analysis and the openness to discuss advantages and disadvantages in regards to ‘manual’ research. #RC21Symposium (1/2)

Next up: Julian Häußler gives us his take on integrating concordance analysis into teaching distributional semantics

Today I attended the Reading Concordances Training Day in Erlangen (@rc21project.bsky.social). It was really interesting to learn about an algorithmic view of concordance analysis, focused on sorting, ordering and grouping operations. #RC21Symposium (1/2)

The entire fortext lab team will be attending this year's #DHd2025 conference!

Last week, we took a little “break” in the Oberharz to reflect on the past six months and make some exciting new plans for the upcoming semester. We thought we'd share this beautiful backdrop with everyone: Wishing you all the best, fortext lab team!

📣 Einreichungen geöffnet Beiträge für das Themenheft "Textannotation in der Hochschullehre" können ab jetzt unter www.fortext-hefte.de/submissions/ eingereicht werden. Wir freuen uns auf eure Beiträge!

What a week! An insightful #DH2024 in Washington, D.C is over. We introduced our project KatKit (@gerstorfer.bsky.social , @julianhaeussler.bsky.social, @evelyngius.bsky.social) with which we want to give food for thought on how category theory can be used for (literary) operationalization.

#DH2024 is already in full swing and @julianhaeussler.bsky.social already gave a lightning talk on our KatKit project at one of the workshops on Monday. Come to his long presentation on the project today at 10:30 in Van Metre Hall 134.
