Workshop on Voyant and Spyral

The Erasmus+ project DigiPhiLit has organized a basic course on Digital Humanities for the Study of Hispanic Literature. As it must be done online, we have opened it to anyone interested. Most of the sessions are in Spanish, but on February 16, Geoffrey Rockwell and Kaylin Land from the University of Alberta (Canada), will deliver a session on Text-Mining with Voyant Tools and Spyral in English (Geoffrey Rockwell is one of the two creators of Voyant tools, together with Stéfan Sinclair. Kaylin Land is a former PhD student of Sinclair who is now being supervised by Rockwell).

The synchronous session will take place via Blackboard Collaborate on February 16 from 9:00 to 11:00 CET.

The session is free and open to anyone. Interested researchers should write down their name and email address on this form https://forms.gle/FG1BMBd2xFyGkErN9. They will then receive a link to the Blackboard Collaborate classroom where the session will take place, as well as the required training materials. The workshop was designed as a flipped classroom, with some preparations required for participants before our synchronous session — so please do contact us in time if you are interested in participating.
