After a lovely lunch and poster session, the afternoon continued with our own talk and a presentation by Andreas Blombach, Philipp Heinrich, and colleagues from @fau.de on drivel in German telegram posts. A very interesting approach to manual annotation of complex and challenging data!

A great start to the #CMC-Corpora conference in beautiful Bayreuth. Lovely warm-up dinner last night and really strong start this morning with presentations on Emotion and Hope Speech and a corpus study on Albanian computer mediated communication (which I knew far too little about thus far!)

The theme is new beginnings: A new platform & followers, a new job as Research Associate at Glasgow, and a great start to the day at the TaNC conference in MCR. It's been wonderful working on the Our Heritage, Our Stories project so far - and some of my visualisation work even made it on the slides.
