Me too with @zotero.org ! My research progress happens slowly over years so I forget what I read back in 2019 or 2020. Longer thoughts go into a Word doc, but I tag individual articles in Zotero, add to folders, attach the Word note & make a brief comment abt why this source is important

Not recorded! It was a short 10min ppr (thankfully!) to get some feedback to ensure I'm headed in the rt direction.
Seems to have gone over well!
Lots of nodding heads...started w/this salvo (in image)
And then someone said "oh you want to do folksonomy!"
Ah yes, I'm in the midst of my people 🧐😃

Yes, please!

Prof dr. Karina van Dalen-Oskam uses of stylometry. Coolest comparision + between authors on story length over time

Methods that we can use to assess the development of short stories 1820-1860 eg how did Mary Shelley hone her short story craft via the annuals?

Well, presentation done! It seems I'm on the rt track with all ethical considerations in this project - including involving SJSU students as collaborators.

Very slow progress in design phase for each major component but worth it

Presenting on Forget Me Not project today. It's been a *journey* so far! Getting my hands dirty with #criticalcataloguing means wandering into controlled vocabs but also trying @elotroalex.bsky.social call to action to ditch Dublin Core for less imperialist methods

I knew it was coming. Still stings.
Denial of #neh AI Humanities Research Center proposal today. Our proposal was TIGHT. The project includes creating Critical #AI Keywords a la #digitalpedagogy in the #Humanities and *real* human-centered AI discussions

Anyone got a cool million to spare?

What an incredible 2-wks! Nothing can replace being in the same room, talking all things #ai -- then touching grass, hiking mtns, taking the time to walk/talk/think abt where we're going in this moment

Favs: Spiral Jetty art at the Great Salt Lake + hiking Ensign Peak during a storm

A fun part of #dhsi - presenting at the parallel colloquium and conference at the very beginning of my project - sharing the joy, enthusiam & dreams at the outset of building infrastructure for a #dh project

...also, for those in-person, sharing BIG news about a wonderful grant award!

So much incredible work we've been able to perform in #dhsi Agile Project Management - revising project goals & NOT letting the budget dominate is a 1st for me 🤯

Then, time to ride 🚴🏻‍♀️

Change of plans: swapped to #dhsi seminar on Agile project management w/ Jim Smith 🤯 Just in time to map out sabbatical research project which, true to form, prolly more than can accomplish 👀🫣🤞🏻🤪 a perennial problem w/humanities grants bc must promise 🌍

The dissolution of freedoms, including the ability to express your own culture, were the first things that the Nazis (gently) removed until fellow communists rose up to protest the treatment of their Jewish neighbors. Stumbling Stones littered the sidewalks as a reminder of a Jewish resident
