Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Visualization: Network Analysis and Cultural Analytics
This week we will examine some of the promises and pitfalls of communicating humanities research in the visual mode, as well as some of the ways that visual communication (like selfies) can be converted into data for humanities research.

Drawing on this week's readings and examples, use data from our group Zotero library or shared Evernote notebook to make network visualizations using Palladio. If you would like to use new data related to our research, add the source(s) to one or both of our shared collections. Embed your visualizations in a new page of our workbook titled "Student's Name + Visualization." Follow the instructions on the "Assignment" page of our workbook to make sure that it 1) shows up in the contents of your "Portfolio" page and 2) is tagged on the "Visualization" page.
