π Just launched the #DigitalHumanities Early Career Fellowship at @unipotsdam.bsky.social β
In the first class, we turned historical sources into data with OCR, discussed βwhat counts as dataβ in the humanities, did some metadata modeling, and met a wonderful new cohort of young researchers!

Had a nice morning visiting prof. Wincenty LutosΕawski today. The grandpa is not very talkative these days, but still a great companyπ
"The number of plays you can generate is larger than the number of atoms in the universe. In fact, one could generate as many plays as there are atoms in the universe FOR EACH atom in the universe". @viktor.im, @umblaetterer.bsky.social on generating TEI dramas with π² (based on a 1829 book) #TEI2025

Capitalist LLMs are eating our smart & open humanities data and mashing it into gigantic word porridge... How can we reverse it? β @peertrilcke.bsky.social speaks about the MCP-empowered LLM Usage of #DraCor (or "How to teach Claude use the DraCor API")
Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2508.13774
#DraCorSummit
How can we connect our smart humanities data to LLMs (when locking them away is not an option, because we want to follow ideas of open access and open science)? βΒ a question raised and investigated with a DraCor-Claude-chatbot by the @dracor.org team at the #DraCorSummit
From LLM agents for #DraCor to operationalisation of sound in Drama: the 2nd Workshop on Computational Drama Analysis is starting right now at the #DraCorSummit. The workshop reader with all 11 papers is online:

See how #DraCor neatly builds into the very circle of life!π

wow, what is this
Still amazed I have to make THIS choice when I submit a bloody tax declaration π€£π
Itβs that "quiet" time of year when I finally face those emails Iβve been avoiding for weeksβsometimes months. Each reply is a tiny act of redemption. Painful, yes, but also such a sweet relief π₯²π
Forgive me lord, for I have procrastinated. A lot.
What is a scene in a novel? And how do we teach computers to detect them? (SPOILER: no, tossing it into the latest GPT does NOT solve it!) A deep & thoughtful study of scene segmentationβοΈ in US romance novels by: @guhrs.bsky.social

Do LLMs turn coders into βcode-readersβ / βevaluatorsβ? How do we teach Python when every beginner student can generate code thatβs better and more complex than anything they can master in years of learning? Is the old teaching pipeline DONE? Shall we teach code interpretation? Discussing at #DH2025
What is literary canon from the Wikipedia stats perspective? Great data-based insight from Jonas Rohe, @viktor.im Lisa Poggel, and @umblaetterer.bsky.social
