The Digital Historian's Craft 📖 doi.org/10.4337/9781... (I'd be happy to send you the preprint if you don't have access to the original here, just ask!)
It's really just a funny little essay that draws on a few key references from the historiography of computing in history to reflect on our "artisanal” practice in the digital age. And which concludes that it is important to remain crafty historians in a world where technology is constantly changing.
Can embeddings be useful as a way to explore large corpora of historical data? Three recent conference papers: 1️⃣ doi.org/10.63744/R2L... Embeddings to analyze news collections (fig.1) 2️⃣ doi.org/10.5281/zeno... Media coverage analysis (fig.2) 3️⃣ doi.org/10.5281/zeno... UMAP vs. network viz? (fig.3)
