  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.

  Assignment

  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.
