(13/n) Day 4 of #NEHNetResearch As we swiftly move from methods like CDA to DDA, and Data Viz, I keep coming back to the area that always haunts me as a DH-er: the tangible loss/gains when we shift from the specificity of close textual analysis to the behemoth of big data... (14/n) #NEHNetResearch Maybe it is analogous to questions on what remains untranslatable from offline worlds into online spaces. Can the virtual reveal the traumatic kernel of the "real"? Or if there is one?

Little did I know while co-hosting the #DHARTITwitterConf earlier this year, that online academia would be a new “normal.”Privileged to be awarded a NEH fellowship to be part of the #NEHNetResearch institute. Amazing work by the organizers and instructors at UCF in setting it up. @dh_dharti

1/n Started, a crowd sourced (live) archive for documenting (state-wise) the mediated Covid19 experience in India. The link (moderated) on Padlet will be found here: padlet.com/dibyadyutir/ms… #Covidarchive #CovidCampus 2/n The methodology for the current map was a simple google search using two key words “Name of Indian state/UT” and “coronavirus.” #Covidarchive #CovidCampus
