“there was never clear separation between past and present, traditional and digital, or other bounded concepts” and that “[m]any of the researchers interviewed for this study assiduously avoided making such distinctions” (10).
Good quote re false binary of new and old technologies of interpretation, etc.
-
binary between “old” (i.e., human) versus “new” (i.e., computational) practices
A binary worthy of breaking down...
-
understanding why a pattern occurs and determining whether it is one that offers insight into a text requires technologies of self-reflective inquiry.
Computer assisted practices never completely divorced from the human.
-
self-consciousness, access, and collaboration in humanist inquiry as technologies.
Demystifying (and conflating) "technology" by applying it to the most humanist of practices.

“distant reading”: understanding literature not by studying particular texts, but by aggregating and analyzing massive amounts of data.
Nothing against this, but it's not the game I'm in.
Question is, though, can the same tool be used to do both distant reading and close reading?

The TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership) is a trade deal that was negotiated in secret -- under the constant influence of corporations. Guess who it benefits.
This page lists ways the TPP harms various individuals, in terms of digital rights. (I'm sure there are other drawbacks, to workers, the economy, and the environment.)

Writing students are notoriously conservative creatures. They write stubbornly and hopefully within the tradition of what they have read. Getting them to try out alternative or innovative forms is harder than talking them into chastity as a life style. But confronted with hyperspace, they have no choice: all the comforting structures have been erased. It's improvise or go home
Old Continent oldfashioned structures are the best example of that issue, new writters try to innovate in contents and structure but never see digital as a quality guarraty. I think is the commitment with the paper, kind of literary marriage that implies all the traditions and conventions during centuries.

Indeed, it was often unclear from the level of engagement which participants were physically present at DPL and which were watching from afar. The present-absent-present dance was fascinating to observe.
As a "virtual attendee" or "lurker" or "scoper," it was difficult to follow and frustrating at times, but super helpful and fun too, especially as resources (images, links, quotes) were shared out. Communicating the context of those resources is still a pretty tricky thing to do well.

Only a limited understanding of the oil consumption mechanism appears to exist, especially oil consumption under transient engine operating conditions. This is probably due to the difficulty in engine instrumentation for measuring not only oil consumption, but also for measuring the associated in-cylinder variables. Because of this difficulty, a relatively large number of experiments and tests are often necessary for the development of each engine design in order to achieve the target oil consumption that meets the requirements for particulate emissions standards, oil economy, and engine reliability and durability.
this is important

I have used the bibliographies to conduct my own research in the area of cataloging assessment, and the social justice bibliography has helped me with a project I’m working on to examine video classification practices.
A lot of my research involves digital library/digital repository assessment, and the assessment literature in that area also relies heavily on quantitative measurements of assessment. I'm very interested in seeing the cataloging + social justice bibliography and if it can help my digital library assessment research.

UCD Sculpture Trail
The creation of campus heritage can help to promote, strengthen, and support community and public engagement. Cognisant that the most successful and sustainable communities contain a wide variety of things to do, see, and enjoy, the University will shortly reveal UCD Sculpture Trail to focus on the rich collection displayed across the Belfield Campus.
These public works of art are an integral part of the urban fabric of University College Dublin, enriching the sense of place and the physical beauty of the natural environment.Varying in style and material, the collection is representative of national and internationally renowned artists including John Burke, Jason Ellis, Thomas Glendon, James Hogan, Kevin O’Dwyer, Bob Quinn and Giorgio Zennaro.
One of the earliest works in the sculpture collection is 'Hibernia with the Bust of Lord Cloncurry' by James Hogan. This marble statue made in Rome is an important work by the Irish born artist dating to the mid 19th century. Other pieces include 'Figurehead' By Jason Ellis as one of the largest free standing stone sculptures in the country and commissioned by UCD in 2007.
The University recognises that the truly inclusive design of it’s amenities should consider creation of places that can be enjoyed by people from all walks of life.
Running along the core of the Campus, UCD Sculpture Trail will link to existing pedestrian routes, and will be a positive addition to the identity of the University as an interesting, attractive, and culturally rich community.

Dundalk market day, Co. Louth
The Dundalk Market Square web site offers the following history of the Dundalk market:
In the 17th century, Lord Limerick (later James Hamilton, 1st Earl of Clanbrassil) created the modern town we know today. He was responsible for the construction of streets leading to the town centre; his ideas came from many visits to Europe. In addition to the demolition of the old walls and castles, he had new roads laid out eastwards of the principal streets. The most important of these new roads connected a newly laid down Market Square, which still survives, with a linen and cambric factory at its eastern end, adjacent to what was once an army cavalry and artillery barracks (now Aiken Military Barracks).
In the 19th century, the town grew in importance and many industries were set up in the local area. This development was helped considerably by the opening of railways, the expansion of the docks area or 'Quay' and the setting up of a board of commissioners to run the town.
The present photograph was captured by the Coimisiún Béaloideasa Éireann (CBÉ) / Irish Folklore Commission (1935).

So it’s easy to say you don’t have to do everything in a MOOC to be part of it – some MOOCs offer different options to choose from, to help people find something they like. Some people will just think they’re supposed to do it all (poor them). More interestingly, though, is this: sometimes the “cool” people (and it’s really a perception more than anything) choose to all get together and do a particular “thing” and if you’re not into that particular “thing” you might feel excluded. They may have issued an open invitation, but you may have missed it, or didn’t realize you could join, or didn’t think you were talented enough, or didn’t know how to introduce yourself. Not everyone can do those things, you know… But it’s ok… as long as there are multiple opportunities, open invitations, eventually, someone will find something somewhere with some group. If they hang in there long enough.
Might this not be a kind of test of "digital citizenship": the ability to negotiate the barriers posed by such unintentional, perhaps even illusionary, cliques and groups in order to substantially participate in these open spaces?

This digital citizenship acknowledges that online experiences are as much a part of our common life as our schools, sidewalks, and rivers—requiring as much stewardship, vigilance, and improvement as anything else we share.
I really like the argument of this article. But I have some issues with the analogy between the online world and what are mostly public physical spaces.
Unlike, rives and sidewalks, online space has little to no regulation, whether from the government or NGOs.
Also, most of our public interactions online take place in private spaces, that is, places owned and operated by private corporations.

Yeah, if the memory is maintained. I can't even keep my iTunes library from disintegrating. If your hard drive crashes, you lose it all, unless it's backed up, in which case you're creating copies that too will differ and degrade.

as researchers and policy makers look to build more sustainable futures, they would be wise to design creative ways to support parents even as they pour more resources into supporting students. We instinctively understand that our public institutions (i.e., schools), policy initiatives, and the spread of media technologies must be a valuable resource for students. But, how can these institutions, policies and technologies become an asset for parents?

reading might be described as the continual redisposition of levels of address in this manner
Another useful (and cool) definition
-
Physical texts were already massively addressable before they were ever digitized, and this variation in address was and is registered at the level of the page, chapter, the binding of quires, and the like.
Always like seeing acknowledgement that scholarly primitives haven't changed, just our means for doing them. Stephen Ramsay's Reading Machines is a good, quick read about this in terms of digital humanities algorithmic criticism.
-
massive flexibility in levels of address
The ability to fluently read/react with a text at a given level of address be treated as a literacy.
-
The book or physical instance, then, is one of many levels of address.
Definition for manifestations of the text. Maybe useful in discussing interface as the encountered work?
-
Now, we are discussing ideal objects here: addressability implies different levels of abstraction (character, word, phrase, line, etc) which are stipulative or nominal: such levels are not material properties of texts or Pythagorean ideals; they are, rather, conventions.
Might be useful in thinking about what an “edition” is—must it include all items most editions currently include, or are those conventions or manifestations of values, and not necessary values themselves?
-
Because a text can be queried at the level of single words and then related to other texts at the same level of abstraction: the table of all possible words could be defined as the aggregate of points of address at a given level of abstraction (the word, as in Google’s new n-gram corpus).
I like this idea of defining a level of text and than comparing across texts—would like to see more of this at the level of code and interface design and tool design decisions (e.g. how do different digital archives deal with making sure visitors see more than the alphabetically or chronologically first few items in the collection? how do different DH sites allow people to comment? what is the difference among moderation or voting systems?).
-
a text is a text because it is massively addressable at different levels of scale
I think this is my favorite definition of “text” (as humanities scholars use the term) that I’ve encountered.
-
What does it mean to be an “item” or “computational object” within this collection? What is such a collection?
This is a great example of the type of critical thinking involved in scholarly digital building—often such projects include hard thinking about the exact nature of scholarly objects. Patrick Murray-John has a fantastic article that further discusses “where the theory is” when scholars design and build (Theory, Digital Humanities, and Noticing). The penultimate paragraph in particular lists some of the critical questions that arise out of designing for an “item” in a digital archives platform.
-
New experiments provide opportunities for thought that precede the results.
And even if we don’t yet have a way to run and experiment and/or gather results, we can use “speculative experiments” to learn about digital objects (such as a digital edition) by imagining and designing for a hypothetical and/or future circumstance.

Personally, I think Digital Humanities is about building things,” said Ramsay in a polarizing talk at the MLA convention in 2011, printed in Defining Digital Humanities. Unlike many theorists, however, he was willing to make this demand concrete: “Do you have to know how to code? I’m a tenured professor of digital humanities and I say ‘yes.’ ”
