DH 2024: Visualization Ethics and Text Analysis Infrastructure

This week I’m at DH 2024 at George Mason in Washington DC. I presented as part of two sessions. 

On Wednesday I presented a short paper with Lauren Klein on work a group of us are doing on Visualization Ethics: A Case Study Approach. We met at a Dagstuhl on Visualization and the Humanities: Towards a Shared Research Agenda. We developed case studies for teaching visualization ethics and that’s what our short presentation was about. The link above is to a Google Drive with drafts of our cases.

Thursday morning I was part of a panel on Text Analysis Tools and Infrastructure in 2024 and Beyond. (The link, again, takes you to a web page where you can download the short papers we wrote for this “flipped” session.) This panel brought together a bunch of text analysis projects like WordCruncher and Lexos to talk about how we can maintain and evolve our infrastructure.
