In “Visualizing the Archive: Actors, Agency, and Infrastructure,” Dr. James Harr will argue that network visualizations can help articulate the incredibly complicated history of these archives. Visualizing these archives can provide a window into the life of a collection, and more importantly, give insights into how history was constructed by archivists. Furthermore, by not viewing these moments in archival history as antiquarian missteps, he asserts that we can begin to understand these shifts as contributions to the scholarship of media history and the archive.

Dr. Harr is a Postdoctoral Teaching Scholar with the Data Science Academy.

Please note that there will be two sessions of this talk, each limited to 25 people. The first session will be from 9:30am to 10:30am, and the second will be from 11:00am to 12:00pm. Due to limited space, registration is required for this talk.
