If you want to follow along with Gephi, it would help to have an Excel or csv file with two columns of data showing links from one thing to another (e.g.,
Ben Miller, CUNY Graduate Center
Chris Sula, Pratt Institute
…

Regarding size, I’ve used Gephi up to 30K points (nodes) and 100K connections (edges), but it sometimes crawls at that scale (though it should be able to handle 1M edges). Something on the order of hundreds or a thousand edges usually works nicely, and I’ll provide a link to whatever data I use in my walkthrough in case people want to follow along.

Are there any materials you’d advise us to bring? e.g. a preferred data sample size or format that we can follow along with?

I would be very interested in learning more on wikis (great for teaching) and on omega (sounds also great for teaching + can be useful for research?).

Prezi and and Zotero are cool too but they’re more easy to figure out on your own.

This sounds like a great session, I would definitely be interested in discussing the questions you pose. I would also add (and this might bleed into a separate session) that I’m interested in examining what the LIS training brings to the DH community. Fluency with metadata is an obvious one, but what about areas like information literacy? That is, how can libraries and librarians contribute to digital scholarship in the humanities beyond providing access to the collections?

Last year when I was running a conference at Fordham, a colleague put me onto the Unitarian Universalist Guesthouse, which was very reasonable and pleasant, though not fancy. www.ccny.org/guesthouseoffpark/

It’s not super close to Lincoln Center, but for what you’ll save on average hotel prices, you can easily afford a cab there and back, which will run you about $8-12.

We are still in the planning phase. As soon as our details is finalized, we will update that information on this page. Thank you so much for your expressed interest in THATCampNY2012.
