Visualizing The #NewRigor

This is a repo for data visualizations emerging from The New Rigor, an ongoing conversation at Five College Digital Humanities about linking digital scholarship to useful structures of support and evaluation. We started this effort with a one-day mini conference in May 2015, and we're continuing work throughout the summer and into the fall. You can learn more about The New Rigor here.

So what is this all about?

During The New Rigor, we had lots of great conversation happening on Twitter. These visualizations are an attempt to look at that conversation in new ways, and share our work with a broader community.

How are they made?

D3, y'all, as well as some very useful and straightforward visualization templates from the twarc and twarc-report repos. I'm Jeffrey Moro, a post-bac with 5CollDH and a novice to all things visualization, so follow along if you want to see me fumble around, or if you want to pitch in and fork this repo!

Where can I see them in action?

Go to http://thenewrigor.5colldh.org/visualizations to check them out. So far, I've made a timeline of all of the tweets sent out during the conference and a force-directed layout that gives the tweets some sproingy action.
