This fellowship grew from @walshbr.bsky.social running a pilot of a teaching exercise in his book on speculative budgeting w/staff+students; he & @spw4s.bsky.social built on student suggestions for funding faculty+PhD student teams, & UVA Data Analytics Ctr's interest in outreach to UVA humanists

Still keep meaning to return to this manuscript. Maybe after I'm done with this current book project.

Buried in the Woolf chapter is my project on machine learning and quotation marks, my @scholarslab.bsky.social fellowship project that helped bounce me into a DH career.

The shorthand I use to describe it was often Joyce + record collecting, Hughes + jazz performances and poetry readings, Woolf + sound recording devices. The major takeaway was that sound recordings are social devices that enable new community formations, and literary recordings are no different.

His response was always "you're fine."

The project sat at the intersection of literary studies, media history, and digital humanities and looked at the strange character, afterlives, and receptions of literary sound recordings. A common question I had with my director was "are there enough books in here to pass as a lit dissertation?

I mean I pitched a character that was secretly piloted by a goldfish in a tank hidden in a person's chest. So I don't say that lightly!
a cartoon character says that it is easter time on earth . no one will suspect two easter bunnies .
Alt: krang from ninja turtle saying "it is easter time on earth. no one will suspect two easter bunnies."

"The Cavalier Daily corresponded with former Rector Robert Hardie, whose term ended June 30, regarding the two accounts. He confirmed that he agreed with Ryan’s account.

'I concur fully with President Ryan’s recollection of events,' Hardie said."

Welp

Does anything ever really conclude??? 🙂

You gave so much incredible and constructive feedback! But the tone of that word cloud is really just one of joy, solidarity, and friendship more than hard-hitting academic critique. The way that collaborations should be.

❤️❤️❤️ This post is so lovely and it was such a pleasure to engage in this way!! Would love to do more of it in whatever way we can manage. I also love the word cloud for how…human it looks.
