Super happy to announce that my methodological article about #SNA applied to historical dance and theater is out! Available here: revistas.uned.es/index.php/RH...
Today in #Dhtries and #DhMakes I ordered stickers with the new logo for #NailsandNodes. Guess what? Most of them arrived with printing errors

With the bad weather yesterday, I decided to reorganize my home office! I’m trying to motivate myself with all the things I need to do over the semester

Next week: part of the Digital Humanist's Helpdesk series, this hour-long workshop with @emilyfbrooks.bsky.social introduces the #DHMakes movement, combining digital humanities with arts and crafts. We will make cool things like zines, bookmarks, & more. Open to all, no previous experience required!

#DHMakes community. I’m so happy to share that #NailsAndNodes is officially taking off this semester!
After conversations with the Associate Dean at CNU, I’ve been given the time, funding, and freedom to develop a GitHub repository giving String Data Art its own dedicated space to grow.

#DHMakes The new String Dat Art piece is taking shape! Now I have most of the edges in place and the legend panels ready. As you can see the colors match!

Next step: painting the nodes according to the artist’s role #NailsandNodes

"'Broken' is a relative term": Test print for poster where all but some small footnote text will be made from actual broken wood type. 2 of the broken letters need to wait for a 2nd pass to be printed, but even then I may do some versions w/nonbroken type printed over or under to improve legibility:

CNU is launching 5x5 Labs combining #DigitalHumanities + #PublicHumanities: Virtual Reality, StoryMaps, podcasting, documentary filmmaking… and one mystery lab 👀
Has anyone seen a similar structure at their institution?

#DHMakes I always start with the same ritual: tying a knot on the outermost nail. That way it’s much easier to secure everything with glue when I’m done. And then comes the fun: simply moving from nail to nail, following the pattern, connecting people!

#DHMakes the set up for today! I’m starting with the edges for Nails and Nodes

#DHmakes is digital humanists (& other folks doing knowledge-work anywhere: library/academic-ish, or on your own!) sharing art/craft/making that has all or partial analog/physical components (ie not code/sites as those had more understanding/sharing in DH already). literaturegeek.com/2025/12/31/w...
I'm not even joking about knitting and letterpress and weaving and friends being the next evolutionary step for digital humanities tech. #DHmakes
2006 Me: Holy shit, are you me from the future?
2026 Me: Yep
2006 Me: So, what's it like, do we still run a webserver behind our couch
2026 Me: We're building a printing press in the basement
2006 Me: Why?
2026 Me: Internet's haunted man (cocks gun) Internet's haunted

In random things, my neighbors are renovating and they were going to throw this and I rescued for #DHMakes!!! I’m super excited because they are super big and enough for two different pieces

Starting the year inspired! Playing with a possible logo for Nails and Nodes: String Data Art.
Color, threads, and maybe a future #DHMakes physical version. What do you think?
