{K}DH is our virtual Digital Humanities Colab at Kenyon College. Students and faculty work side by side to explore new computational approaches and create innovative research projects.
The 2019-2020 project will center on developing an interactive website that graphs emotional arc in narrative using the latest sentiment analysis techniques.
Over the course of the academic year, our student Digital Humanities Research Fellows will work alongside faculty to hone computational methods, create an interactive website, and seed the website with sample narratives. As a public digital humanities project, the goal is to make sentiment analysis easy and accessible to a wide audience of students and scholars interested in storytelling, narrative, and emotion.
The lead faculty researchers are Katherine Elkins, Jon Chun, Jesse Matz, Matthew Suazo and Kathleen Fernando.
