Still one of my favorite collaborations to date. A lot of work surrounds death, even on Wikipedia.

Falk prompts us to “dream of a queer computer” — hitting at the underlying motivation of our work. If structured databases are “straight” (I might use the term “normative”) what might queer data and computing look like? Have some examples? I’d love to see them!

As a qualitative-leaning scholar, I tend to think of my computational tools as collaborators that let me see the world through different lenses. I am so excited that this work on Qual+ML+Vis is getting out there!

How can ML+VIS support qualitative data analysis? Scholastic, a tool developed at @cu_visualab, unites interactive text clustering with interpretive research! Link to pre-print:

@olamitundunsi But concretely I imagine in most cases this would involve being temporarily adopted by another lab with research overlap while focusing on course work.
