The Epic Highs and Lows of Building a Digital Archive
When I was setting goals at the beginning of the summer, I thought processing and uploading the entirety of the Lowell Offering’s 5-year run would be reasonable. I was so wrong. I underestimated exactly how time-consuming the data entry would be and, around the halfway point, I realized I had to move along. Getting theContinue reading “The Epic Highs and Lows of Building a Digital Archive”
[Data] Mining For Medieval Messengers: Part 2
Coming into the Summer Fellowship, the aspect of my project that I was most worried about was the coding.

Workshop: A Creativity Podcast – Post #1
I used to love NPR’s Fresh Air with Terry Gross. Her smooth calming voice paired with her insightful questions motivated me on multiple occasions to purchase the book of her guest, be it Ocean Vuong’s poetry collection about grief after his mother’s death or Michael Pollan’s tome on psychedelic drug treatments. But ever since startingContinue reading “Workshop: A Creativity Podcast – Post #1”
Blog Post 2: Susa Imports
When I first began this fellowship I had hoped that this post would be one of celebration, one that highlighted the fact that I was finished with my Omeka project. Unfortunately that is not the case. I’m not finished, and I’m a little disappointed that I didn’t reach my initial goal. I started with theContinue reading “Blog Post 2: Susa Imports”
