| === Special Issue #16: Vernacular languages processing ===
| |
|
| |
| ==== Vernacular language processing methods ====
| |
| ===== 00. Mix of Sauces =====
| |
| Reader prototyping project developed in class by Kamo, Supisara & me. We tried the method of taking a complex text and simplifying by putting it in chat bubbles. [https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/~kamo/10-06-2021-chat_reader/ Find out more here.]
| |
|
| |
| ===== 01. Blackout (poetry) =====
| |
| '''def''' Blackout poetry (when a page of text is completely blacked out (coloured over with permanent marker so that it is no longer visible) except for a select few words. When only these words are visible, a brand new story is created from the existing text.)
| |
|
| |
| Blackout (poetry) is an intervention in someone else's work to create new meanings, express new ideas, find new directions. It can also be a way to annotate and focus on the big picture. Or not?
| |
|
| |
| Example: [https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/~alnik/xpub1/lab/week%2002/LP_ideas/hod_reading1.PNG Blackout poem from the first page of the "House of dust" journal, see here.] There are at least two ways to read the annotated result - [https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/~alnik/xpub1/lab/week%2002/LP_ideas/hod_reading1.PNG 1 here] and [https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/~alnik/xpub1/lab/week%2002/LP_ideas/hod_reading2.PNG 2 here].
| |
|
| |
| [[File:House-of-dust-blacked-out.png|thumb]]
| |
|
| |
| ===== 02. Repetition and new meanings =====
| |
| By printing a short sentence a hundred times, repeating itself, we can discover a new meaning. We can start from a different word every time and construct several meanings. Pretty simple, but fun to try.
| |
| Example: [https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/carrier-bag-of-notebooks/week-2/alnik/07-3-BEES-free-project-experiments.html Welcome to the World of Bees]
| |
|
| |
| ===== 03. Petition comments processing =====
| |
| Experimenting with my first steps in processing natural language with Python. For this exercise I took a petition tackling the housing crisis in the Netherlands and the comments of people who signed it. In order to get to know their stories, real problems and reasons for participation, I copied their comments in a pad and then ran a function to extract the adjectives - the words they used to describe the situation or their feelings. See the [https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/pad/p/alnik-petitions petition comments pad here] and [https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/pad/p/alnik-petitions-processed the pad with the extracted adjectives]. [https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/carrier-bag-of-notebooks/week-8/alnik_pad-lab_petitions.html Here is the processing code].
| |
|
| |
| Challenges not solved: we see the adjectives out of context; you don't see when an adjective had also a negative "no/not" before it. How do you get what was the sense behind the adjective when filtering them like this? What can you do with this output?
| |
|
| |
| ===== 04. Rejection as a self-care =====
| |
| Together with [[User:Miriam|Miriam]], we elaborated on the idea of looking at the rejection as a self-care mechanism. Here are our [https://pad.xpub.nl/p/self_care_glossary concept] and [https://pad.xpub.nl/p/self_care_glossary_archive brainstorming].
| |
|
| |
| ==== 05. Final project: Annotation Compass ====
| |
| As part of our "Learning How To Walk While Catwalking" themed special issue, together with Kamo, Jian, Kim, Supi and Emma, we created and explored the "[https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/si16-app/projects/annotation-compass/ Annotation Compass]": a tool for gathering situated impressions in order to create individual, vernacular and poetic readings of various inputs (such as space, image, text).
| |
|
| |
| ===== Rotterdam Impressions =====
| |
| These illustrated subjective maps represent the impressions of the first year master students of Experimental Publishing at the Piet Zwart Institute. Their situated experiences trigger various ways to describe their new home: Rotterdam. They were invited to reflect on the way they remember some of the areas in the city and to describe how they feel about them. In words, in their own vernacular English - the common language that is not native to anyone of them but the main language they communicate between each other. Afterwards, their descriptions were filtered by a Python function to extract the most common words they used whilst describing their perceptions of the selected areas on the map, divided in three main categories - adjectives, nouns and pronouns. The final outcome is this short list of the most common impressions of various places and illustrated maps as an artistic expression of the author.

| ==== Research ====
| |
| What is vernacular language? Before, now, tomorrow. When was the first time anyone came with the concept of vernacular? How can it be processed? What interventions can be done and why?
| |
|
| |
| In the world of abstract, whilst trying to orientate myself, I am looking for familiar things and starting points. [https://pad.xpub.nl/p/alnik-vernacular-research A little side-gig exploration on my own is available here] and [https://app.mural.co/t/alnik5592/m/alnik5592/1633689058345/21c75ee0cc133173d676c176cf75ce43d2916015?sender=u1aafa7cce812be5c11623158 here].
