Taking a break at the Digital Humanities Oxford Summer School 🥸
Thank you @dhoxss for giving me the opportunity for this full week of learning and sharing.

Day 3 at Humanities Data @dhoxss
This first session starts with OpenRefine, a powerful free, open source tool for working with messy data: cleaning it, transforming it from one format into another; and extending it with web services and external data.

What is a map? 😍
A design that communicates any aspect of a real or theoretical location beyond our immediate comprehension by preserving spatial arrangements and simplifying detail.
#HumDat#DHOxSS2024@dhoxss
Proximity matters when we build an archive or repository. Archivists and curators are clorser to the creator/s than other reserachers.
#DH#HumDat#DHOxSS2024@dhoxss
An artifact derives much of its meaning from attributes that are not intrinsic to the artifact itself. We need to look for its context and provenance.

How could technologies and techniques be used to enhance a reserch project?
