CHR always feels like beginning of a holiday: a little happy mist is in the air. For me it also somehow feels like home, a strong moment of belonging. (therefore a little sad 2027 will be in January) #chr2025

Today is #dracor day! This morning, until just now in fact, we did our final (oral) report on #clsinfra, including of course talking about #DraCor. And now, @skorinkin, one of the editors of DraCor, speaks about the corpus plattform in our seminar on #multilingualsm in #DigitalHumanities.

Very cool! The Proceedings for #CHR2025 have already been published, now at the new and slick #ACH, the "Anthology of Computers and the Humanities", developed and maintained by ACH, the "Association for Computers and the Humanities". As an example, you can […] [Original post on fedihum.org]

Do you know anyone using #janeway in conjunction with #LaTeX-based workflows (e.g. #overleaf)? If so, please share your use case. I am aware of one example but don't want to bias the responses here. If you are using #ojs (or anything else) for LaTeX-based workflows in #doa contexts, that would […]

Something we're all in denial about, btw, is that rhetorical infrastructure is one of the central achievements of CS: • 10-page, open-access paper • clear abstract • figure explains the problem on page 1 (or at most 2) • supported by open code • written in ... LaTeX ... (ok, no one's perfect)

Neat idea by Jessica Monaco and Mark Algee-Hewitt, at #dh2025, on subgenre mixture within the Gothic novel: First, train a model to classify text segments into one of eight genres, not including the Gothic (!). Then, ask the model to classify segments from Gothic novels into those genres in […]

#dh2025: Amazing #cls work at the mini conference "The times they are a-changing". Judith Brottrager (TU Darmstadt) presents her #canonisation Score and explains how to use temporal filtering in network analysis of literary texts. Oh, and those are time-sensitive networks, not Dune sandworms. 🐛

Back in Göttingen for a weekend of swimming to renew my lifeguard license, I am working remotely today from the library of my alma mater @unigoettingen. Seeing the first-year student activities, I'm reminded that 9 years ago this month, I was a new master student myself. How time flies!

Not a great time to be looking for DH jobs but add me to the list of people looking for work. I’m also available for Python / Django development more generally.

Coming soon! Proud to have contributed to this volume in a chapter with Susan Schreibman on our work in the Irish "Letters 1916-1923" project, in which we faced the challenge of uncovering #women's stories in a male-dominated historical corpus. #digitalhumanities #feministdh #History

Die gute Nachricht von Mareike König auf der Abschluss-Keynote der #DHd2025: das Wort „fertig“ ist steigerbar zu „am fertigsten“. Nach der Konferenz-Party mag das die ein oder andere Person im Raum eventuell fühlen 😅
