Special Issue #16: Vernacular Language Processing
Group exercises
Date | Pad | Description | Output |
---|---|---|---|
22/09/21 | RW&RM | Intro, first reading and writing workshop | Emoji markup with Jian, Kamo, Erica. Annotating a reader with emojis to indicate the beginning and endings of each person's side notes, questions, distractions, references, etc. Annotations became interruptions that were woven into the original reader and transformed it into reader 2.0. |
28/09/21 | SI16 | On orientation & navigation | Text traverse + keyword geotag with Alex, Jian: selecting, combining, and rearranging texts from multiple readers to create a new one to perform with. Keyword repetition is used as a text navigation tool/method, so performance can vary (for example, start/stop reading at specific word). |
05/10/21 | SI16 | Text processing | 1.) Soliloquy slow processing with Chae, Miriam, Carmen (lines 111-156): selecting a linguistic pattern to apply to a literary device 2.) Magic words glossary with everyone: text processing with special customized commands/incantations for a collaborative spell book |
06/10/21 | RW&RM | Reader prototypes | From pad to bubbles with Kamo, Alex: converting chaos to calm in the form and flow of chat bubbles |
12/10/21 | SI16 | Transcription processes | Multilingual multitasking with Mitsa: transcribing while recording, listening, thinking, editing, then generating translations in two more languages |
01/11/21 | Prototyping | Custom corpora | Concrete Label (pad, tool (WIP)) with Kamo: manually filtering/annotating concrete poetry |
Observations
and/or reflections, side thoughts, curiosities, rabbit holes
- processing is time and environment-based
- rejection as a vernacular processing method: masks, magnetic field, compressed directions/decisions, simultaneous selection + omission, frame rates of events/active-inactive states, physics (collision/energy)
Experiments
1.) Prototyping for carrier-bag-of-notebooks (to be linked)
