Hey Renzo,
I think you and I are in the same boat. We’re both really interested in our subject matter, but the project falls short on the technical side. For me, while building an Omeka site is a worthy […]

Great project idea. This would have been helpful when I was doing my paper on 19th century illustrated weeklies.

Thanks, everyone! Tableau is great, but I’m still learning. It didn’t take me very long to show what I did here, but if I wanted to make something more complicated, I would definitely need to up my Tableau game. […]

Check you out, MC! This sounds like an amazing project. I appreciate you sharing your intellectual process as well as technical. The theoretical questions you raised regarding how you plan to approach the […]

Ignoring non-normative bodies seems anti-humanistic, but I see Mary Catherine’s point in asking the question. This question highlights, what appears to me, as the precarious position of digital humanities. There […]

The criticisms on digital humanities was of particular interest to me in this week’s readings. Svensson’s “Beyond the Big Tent” was a nice break from the readings on the congeniality of DH. I appreciated how he […]
