Workshop – Network Graphing for Humanists (David Roh, Director, Digital Matters)
Visualizing relationships can reveal hidden connections, leading to interesting research questions or new lines or inquiry. But how can a non-specialist build those relationships in a quick, efficient, and painless way? In this workshop, we will learn how to use Gephi, a free and open-source software platform, to build a network graph of character relationships. The examples we will use are drawn from popular and literary culture, but the same principles could be applied to historical figures, geographic locations, academic relationships, and social media connections. We will build a network graph from the ground up, and explore various configurations and customizations based on user needs.
Participants are encouraged to download and install Gephi prior to their arrival to the workshop. It is also advised that participants have access to a spreadsheet program such as MS Excel or Google Sheets.
