Eileen Clancy wrote a new post, Listening to Wikipedia, on the site Fall 2016 ITP Core 1 Course 5 years, 8 months ago

I shared this with people who attended the lab about Wikipedia a few weeks ago. But if you haven’t gone to the page “Listen to Wikipedia,” you might want to give it a listen. It’s a sonification and visualization […]
Eileen Clancy commented on the post, Rethinking Wikipedia, on the site Fall 2016 ITP Core 1 Course 5 years, 8 months ago

Thinking about using Wikipedia as a jumping off point for research makes me want to mention the way that I use it. Because the articles vary widely in quality, the main content of the page may not have even the […]

Eileen Clancy commented on the paper Blog post draft -Parfait 6 years, 3 months ago

A fascinating paper. I had been very unclear on how you were going to tie in your field research to theory. Now that you have begun to do that, I see that the examples you have chosen are excellent. In a sense, […]
