We cannot believe these 5 days are over 😭 The ‘Text as data’ #DHSpringSchool has reached its end, but the spring continues to blossom — and so do #DigitalHumanities 🌸🌸🌸

You can now export #DraCor data to external tools like #Voyant or #Gephi lite with a single click — Frank @umblaetterer.bsky.social Fischer presents the new 🆕! „External Tools“ functionality of @dracor.org at the #DHSpringSchool 💁‍♂️

“And my favourite fanfiction community — the one around German pseudo documentary criminal series” — @anastasiaglawion.bsky.social presents network analysis of fanfiction communities at fanfiction[dot]de, which is also the source for practical data at the #DHSpringSchool networks workshop ⛓️‍💥

How good was the food? Artjoms Şeļa @artjomshl.bsky.social asks the participants to rate their lunch 🥗 at Uni Potsdam Mensa and immediately plots the distribution on a chalkboard (to end up with a Gaussian). Stylometry workshop at the #DHSpringSchool 📖

🧑‍🏫💻 Will chalkboards survive in the digital world? We were surprised to see how useful this old-fashioned medium proved to be during our #DHSpringSchool — workshop leaders were so eager to use it for quick explanations 💁

You can tell apart iambic and trochaic meters just by measuring the frequency of ONE word. At least in Czech, where it's not easy to do iambic poetry without adding monosyllabic words at the beginning
@artjomshl.bsky.social explains the relation between frequencies and meters at the #DHSpringSchool

Stylometry… That’s exactly what it looks like:
you i the a to and that in of it me is this what no on your yeah don't my do…

…and so on! Especially if you’re working with movie dialogues 🎬🗣️ like JanRybicki

Jan Rybicki: You can count many things in films—like dead bodies💀🪦 That alone can be a good proxy for genre.
If there’s one, it’s a love story that ends badly💔
If there are two, it’s a love story that ends even worse💔💔
Three to six? A crime story🔫
A hundred? That’s Rambo💥

“Much of what I'll show you will be the colourful pictures of my own failures” — Jan Rybicki (@jagiellonskiuni.bsky.social), in his usual manner, delivers a witty & very educational lecture on #Stylometry and #DistantReading in Film after an obligatory bit of ironic self-humiliation. #DHSpringSchool

The DH Spring School in Potsdam kicked off with an inspiring lecture by Michaela Mahlberg @michamahlberg.bsky.social on corpus linguistics and climate stories — exploring water-related collocations in texts and the narratives shaping our society #DHSpringSchool #DigitalHumanities #CorpusLinguistics

Super happy to be back in Potsdam to expand my skillset and learn at this excellent event!
