Emerging Methodologies for Interdisciplinary Research Practice UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Santa Barbara Emerging Methodologies for Interdisciplinary Research Practice A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Media Arts & Technology by Angus Graeme Forbes Committee in Charge: Professor George Legrady, Chair Professor Tobias Höllerer Professor JoAnn Kuchera-Morin March 2014 The Dissertation of Angus Graeme Forbes is approved: Professor Tobias Höllerer Professor JoAnn Kuchera-Morin Professor George Legrady, Committee Chairperson January 2014 Emerging Methodologies for Interdisciplinary Research Practice Copyright © 2014 by Angus Graeme Forbes iii For my mother, Margaret Joy McKenzie Forbes (1947-2009) iv Acknowledgements The Media Arts & Technology program is a special community of thinkers and creators. I would like to acknowledge all my colleagues and collaborators who supported and inspired me throughout my time here. I feel fortunate to have had many teachers and advisors at UCSB who introduced me to interdisciplinary approaches to research and who continually motivated me to explore new ideas, including Matthew Turk, Marcos Novak, Curtis Roads, and Alan Liu, among others. I would especially like to thank Tobias Höllerer and JoAnn Kuchera- Morin for their unflagging support and thorough feedback on article submissions, qualifying exams, research statements, job applications, my masters project, and on this dissertation. Most of all, this dissertation would not have been possi- ble without the mentorship of George Legrady, who provided me with count- less opportunities by inviting me to take part in his collaborative installation projects, by encouraging me to begin teaching, by offering valuable criticism of my work, and by sharing his deep knowledge of new media arts. Finally, I want to express my gratitude to the many wonderful musicians, artists, writers, sci- entists, composers, philosophers, and students I had the opportunity to befriend while living in Santa Barbara, including Basak Alper, Amelia Nuding, F.

  • Digital Humanities
    Miriam Posner Digital Humanities Chapter 27 DIGITAL HUMANITIES Miriam Posner Digital humanities, a relative newcomer to the media scholar’s toolkit, is notoriously difficult to define. Indeed, a visitor to www.whatisdigitalhumanities.com can read a different definition with every refresh of the page. Digital humanities’ indeterminacy is partly a function of its relative youth, partly a result of institutional turf wars, and partly a symptom of real disagreement over how a digitally adept scholar should be equipped. Most digital humanities practitioners would agree that the digital humanist works at the intersection of technology and the humanities (which is to say, the loose collection of disciplines comprising literature, art history, the study of music, media studies, languages, and philosophy). But the exact nature of that work changes depending on whom one asks. This puts the commentator in the uncomfortable position of positing a definition that is also an argument. For the sake of coherence, I will hew here to the definition of digital humanities that I like best, which is, simply, the use of digital tools to explore humanities questions. This definition will not be entirely uncontroversial, particularly among media scholars, who know that the borders between criticism and practice are quite porous. Most pressingly, should we classify scholarship on new media as digital humanities? New media scholarship is vitally important. But a useful classification system needs to provide meaningful distinctions among its domains, and scholarship on new media already has a perfectly good designation, namely new media studies (as outlined in Chapter 24 in this volume). So in my view, the difference between digital humanities and scholarship about digital media is praxis: the digital humanities scholar employs and thinks deeply about digital tools as part of her argument and research methods.

  • Collaborative Approaches to Digital Humanities Projects
    CHAPTER 2 TITLE Computing and Communicating Knowledge: Collaborative Approaches to Digital Humanities Projects AUTHORS Lisa Spiro OVERVIEW Two cultural and technological transformations are influencing the move toward collaborative digital humanities scholarship: (1) the abundance of data and (2) Web 2.0, or “the participatory web.” This chapter provides compelling examples of how humanities researchers are responding to these transformations and illustrates different approaches both to collaboration and to digital humanities research. Case studies of HyperCities, the Tibetan and Himalayan Library, the Orlando Project, and The Mind Is a Metaphor are presented based on semi-structured, hour-long interviews conducted with project leaders as well as analyses of articles and Web sites associated with the projects. In the chapter’s final section, the author examines the challenges that collaborative humanities researchers face and suggests how to better support this sort of work. TAGS collaborative, community, data, digital, humanities, information, knowledge, participatory, projects, research, scholarship, web 2.0 AUTHOR BIOGRAPHIES Lisa Spiro, director of the National Institute for Technology in Liberal Education Labs, works with the liberal arts community to explore emerging educational technologies and develop collaborative approaches to integrating learning, scholarship and technology. As part of her passion for tracking emerging educational technologies and analyzing their implications for research and teaching, she edits the Digital Research Tools (DiRT) wiki and authors the Digital Scholarship in the Humanities blog. Lisa’s recent publications include a report for the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) analyzing the prospects for an all-digital academic library (with Geneva Henry), another CLIR report evaluating archival management software, and an essay examining how scholars use digital archives in American literature and culture (with Jane Segal).

Apperley The University of Melbourne Darshana Jayemane The University of Melbourne This article argues that among the burgeoning approaches to game studies there is a crucial re-imagining of digital games in their material contexts across different scales and registers: the machine, the body and the situations of play. This re-imagining can be seen in a number of approaches: platform and software studies, which examine the materiality of code and/or the technological infrastructure through which it is enacted; critical studies of digital labour; and detailed ethnographic studies that examine the cultures of online worlds and situate gaming in relation to everyday practices. The article traces these three strands, focusing on how they demonstrate a heightening of the stakes in game studies research by providing access to scale and connecting digital games research to wider interdisciplinary contexts.

  • Bringing the Digital Humanities Into Reader's Advisory
    Judging a Book By Its Cover: Bringing the Digital Humanities into Reader’s Advisory by Laura Michelle Gerlitz A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts and Master of Library and Information Studies Digital Humanities and Library and Information Studies University of Alberta © Laura Michelle Gerlitz, 2019 ii Abstract This study sets out to examine recurring themes found on book wrappers published by Harlequin in their first seventeen years as a form of marketing strategy. Through the use of specific image and text patterns that correspond to common themes found in paperback genres, Harlequin was able to appeal to targeted audiences, competing with other early reprint companies and eventually become the colossal modern publishing company of today. A unique approach using several digital humanities methods, namely text and image analyses, and data visualizations, will be employed to examine a special collection of several hundred wrappers. An interdisciplinary approach to research in book history will be taken, utilizing a blend of methods from digital humanities, and theories from library and information studies, humanities, and communication studies. The resulting patterns will be connected to reader’s advisory as appeal factors in successful book selection by readers. iii Preface This thesis is an original work by Laura Gerlitz. Portions of this thesis will be published in a future volume of the Bibliographical Society of Canada’s journal, Papers of the Bibliographical Society of Canada, as part of the Society’s Emerging Scholar Award for 2018. iv Acknowledgements I would like to thank a number of librarians, professors and other staff and individuals who supported me throughout these three years of research, without whom this thesis would not have been possible.

  • Five Principles of New Media: Or, Playing Lev Manovich by Madeleine Sorapure
    Five Principles of New Media: Or, Playing Lev Manovich by Madeleine Sorapure Introduction In The Language of New Media, Lev Manovich proposes five “principles of new media”—to be understood “not as absolute laws but rather as general tendencies of a culture undergoing computerization.” The five principles are numerical representation, modularity, automation, variability, and transcoding. I focus on Manovich’s work because I believe it effectively examines the materiality of new media—that is, the influence of the computer’s interface and operations, its logic and ontology, on the production, distribution, and reception of new media. This article offers an interactive explanation and demonstration of the five principles of new media, particularly as they apply to teaching writing, and drawing on work done by students in my Winter 2003 “Writing in New Media” course. Students in the course worked on three projects—two in Photoshop, one in Flash—and they wrote three project reports in which they commented on their own work as well as on theories of new media that we were reading and discussing in class. Text and images are included here with the students’ permission, along with links to some of the Flash projects they composed. The menu to the left allows you to navigate through the article. On all of the screens, you can rollover and/or click on buttons and images to make things happen and to make text visible.

    Warner.review-1 Computable Culture and the Closure of the Media Paradigm William B. Warner Director, the Digital Cultures Project Department of English University of California, Santa Barbara Santa Barbara, CA 93106 [email protected] Review of: Lev Manovich, _The Language of New Media_. Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2000. [1] Most scholars of modern media now agree that the shift of symbolic representation to a global digital information network is as systemic and pervasive a mutation, and as fraught with consequences for culture, as the shift from manuscript to print. Any one who wants to think clearly about the cultural implications of the digital mutation should read Lev Manovich’s new book, _The Language of New Media_. This book offers the most rigorous definition to date of new digital media; it places its object of attention within the most suggestive and broad-ranging media history since Marshall McLuhan; finally, by showing how software takes us beyond the constraints of any particular media substrate--paper, screen, tape, film, etc.--this book overcomes the media framework indexed by its own title. _The Language of New Media_ leads its reader to confront what is strange yet familiar, that is, *uncanny*, about the computable culture we have begun to inhabit. [2] Before characterizing Manovich in greater detail, it is helpful to say what this book is *not*. Pragmatically focused upon the present contours of computable media, Lev Manovich is neither a prophet nor doomsayer, peddling neither a utopian manifesto nor dystopian warnings. Manovich also eschews the conceptual purity of those cultural critics who set out to show how new digital media realizes the program of…Gilles Deleuze, Jean Baudrillard, Jacques Derrida (insert your favorite theorist).

Software is fundamentally composed of algorithms: sets of defined steps structured to process instructions/data to KEYWORDS Algorithm; code; produce an output. This paper synthesises and extends emerging epistemology; methodology; critical thinking about algorithms and considers how best to research research them in practice. Four main arguments are developed. First, there is a pressing need to focus critical and empirical attention on algorithms and the work that they do given their increasing importance in shaping social and economic life. Second, algorithms can be conceived in a number of ways – technically, computationally, mathematically, politically, culturally, economically, contextually, materially, philosophically, ethically – but are best understood as being contingent, ontogenetic and performative in nature, and embedded in wider socio-technical assemblages. Third, there are three main challenges that hinder research about algorithms (gaining access to their formulation; they are heterogeneous and embedded in wider systems; their work unfolds contextually and contingently), which require practical and epistemological attention. Fourth, the constitution and work of algorithms can be empirically studied in a number of ways, each of which has strengths and weaknesses that need to be systematically evaluated. Six methodological approaches designed to produce insights into the nature and work of algorithms are critically appraised.

  • How to Follow Software Users
    How to Follow Software Users Lev Manovich softwarestudies.com March 2012 “Big data” is the new media of 2010s. Like previous waves of computer technologies, it changes what it means to know something and how we can generate this knowledge. Thanks to the efforts of Digital Humanities Office1 at National Endowment of Humanities (U.S. National funding agency for humanities research) which together with other agencies organized Humanities High Performance Computing program in 2008, and Digging Into Data competitions in 2009 and 2011, as well as the few pioneering projects by individual humanities researchers and their labs, big data paradigm has now entered the humanities. An article in New York Times from November 16, 2010 (part of their Humanities 2.0 series) boldly stated: “The next big idea in language, history and the arts? Data.”2 While digitization of historical cultural artifacts seemingly produces such data, representing cultural activities as data which can be analyzed with computers is a challenge in itself. So far, all big data projects in digital humanities that I am aware of used digitized cultural artifacts from the past. If we want to apply the big data paradigm to the study of contemporary interactive software-driven media, we are facing fascinating theoretical questions and challenges. What exactly is “big data” in the case of interactive media? How do we study the interactive temporal experiences 1 (http://www.neh.gov/odh/. 2 http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/17/arts/17digital.html. of the users, as opposed to only analyzing the code of software programs and contents of media files? This article provides possible answers to these questions.
