0:29in my technique
0:32disdain system site

0:54e fee
0:57they want to do is just simply him
1:01what sort of gene
1:04welcome as my pet supply acceptable level of digital story
1:08uh... and watching asking if the jewel history
1:13he
1:14sort
1:15is i suppose it's a response to the challenge of ones
1:18traditional historical methods
1:20stock to have trouble dealing with the past the masses source material is
1:23coming along
1:25uh... have responded had to be used just understand often into some sort of
1:31context
1:33so digital history helps provide
1:35uh... neutrals in new technologies and that was to make sense of all these
1:39wonderful reaches
1:40but of course uh... as well as there's also some new possibilities which in
1:44managed uh... or having all these
1:47wonderful material available
1:49we can start to see new patents across these lines

2:46actually uh... nineteen fifties mostly
2:49uh... and really exchanging historical acts having open source material
2:55at the last few years i've been looking at ways that we could see used to stop
2:59the sort of mikhail beyond
3:01just discovery
3:02go beyond using the search box
3:04to stop to think about how we can build analyses which take advantage of these
3:08collected
3:09wealth of material documentation culture
3:12different licensee using
3:14cheery
3:17side you have to redo south of moscow analysis using this material
3:21but you know if it's what we have to start getting together we believe that
3:24we can actually do stuff we
3:26so one of those things i did was i could
3:28of middle parten script
3:30which just went and harvested lots and lots and lots of articles site give it a
3:34query
3:34he would go off and it worked out loud
3:37the articles with hundreds of thousands of articles
3:39vanass convenient for them
3:41uh... admitted not of the text of the articles and tedious if you had a lot of
3:45time
3:46love dispensed
3:47um...
3:48and once you get back to you
3:50uh... in sort of convenience for mucus dot
3:54to apply you sort of text analysis software at various times on the texas
3:58dot looking for the suspects
4:00and one just one example
4:02uh... uses an online to full-court uh... boiled
4:06on
4:07which
4:08he basically just for a whole lot of text edit and it gives you a number of
4:11ice is starting to explore that text
4:13anne thank you for that
4:16useful small sample
4:19off please
4:20included the fries contact from nine forty five to ninety six
4:24uh... so it is possible and stop through loyalton heating
4:28incentivize looking at knows analyzing the case
4:32that's a pretty cool
4:34was in a sense that
4:36it took a long time to download google as ours
4:39and i thought speaker otherwise
4:41of creating big pictures sort of large-scale analyses
4:45uh... why is it just sort of
4:46not following up on ch
4:48having a party and is doing it without having to download thousands and
4:50thousands bugs
4:52side will free
4:56critics think through various visions uh...
4:59these is uh... a crash
5:01showing the number articles within the newspaper dot i submit to the copyright
5:06by the time
5:07my trade for
5:10uh... what it does instead of having to download only articles adjustment
5:14susmita
5:15just grabs
5:16uh... the title of article three chia sorry for the titan
5:20help to something
5:22he can get this in a few minutes
5:24you can get it back
5:30online
5:32it's public
5:33in its current form it's it's basically a web applications
5:37here
5:38uh...
5:40or
5:42the senate
5:42over a hundred or so
5:44graphs that people have got there at the moment
5:47uh...
5:49one of the things wickedly at critic
5:53it's that's also said
5:56d
5:59on that
6:01actually goes back off to triumph
6:03aniket specter's three matching articles
6:06sake anxious not to explore looked under all those
6:09points on the crash
6:10so the comes alive actually getting in
6:12tonight's ideally happens entrada
6:15white which is framed around to a particular research interests
6:18something that you could share something that you can whipped cream collaborate
6:21around
6:25need for what this country
6:27but
6:28douglas
6:29now disney's other experiments which well it's been a lot of time
6:40this example if you're interested in the front pages please type is this is a
6:44psychiatric
6:45uh...
6:47but you might not realize is that from pledges batboys head news on them
6:52for a long time friend just advertising
6:55and forthrightness unknown reasons i actually was quite interested to try and
6:59recapping that change happen
7:01advertising returnees
7:03so what you'd call us was i downloaded formulated newspaper articles from fraud
7:08on
7:09that it's
7:11out what was the end of the morning
7:14uh...
7:15and into the response because i should say if you're a interested you can
7:19actually tell me
7:20you can start to look at act way that i just happened at the nineteen you'll
7:23notice is that it's not uniform you look at the different used by the tunnels
7:27at different times at different times
7:30uh... and you know i i think there's a killer with
7:33to be done actually looking at the sort of cultural
7:35circumstances around some of those changes which
7:38ones that one thing i want to get to that
7:43it looks like
7:44this little guy not react using tried
7:47court headline lead
7:48all of us is around a newspaper article from the tardis bypass
7:53presented to you without the dutch and you have to get it back to your trip up
7:59uh...
8:00arguing it really is
8:01uh... pilots that flew across the current price is right behind me
8:05and
8:07and people tell me that you strangely activity
8:13the strife
8:15missiles for the future of the past
8:17uh... which
8:20is is that would be fine trucks in this case which included the phrase the
8:24future
8:26electron describe what it doesn't just invite you to junk pirate into just
8:30went up to you that once you get to a particular year leading that resource
8:34we can actually use it to create your own fridge poetry
8:37uh... people writing poetry
8:40from the words reading those articles i mean the whole point of it was to
8:42release for the poor people keep out the words themselves
8:46robin possibly trying to reduce them to doctor appointment
8:50and that was my point contract like that
8:53okay so you know it's tougher basically working with newspapers published
8:58before ninety four
9:00uh... subsidized
9:01in populations
9:03because the problem is that you see ends in nineteen fifty four when you don't
9:05expect switches
9:07excuse it but uh...
9:08and you know their problems and try the link that up to
9:11other news by two data bases around the world of technical legal problems
9:14would be great if we could do these comparisons
9:17across of the country's it does great because it's i also includes new zealand
9:21you can actually sits prospect as possible as they can do some comparison
9:24between strains even eager to be doing
9:27for president pertinent as well
9:31tried as an economic crisis of the stuff
9:35but when i started to get that didn't happen akio
9:37so what that meant was i had to resort to all sorts of horrible things like
9:41screen striking
9:42basically replacing city and engineering interfaces
9:46falling h_t_t_p_ heads what sort of fun stuff
9:49uh...
9:52but then the reality is that uh... sort of ritalin
9:55too
9:56you tried to expect
9:57machine readable docking cultural heritage sources and
10:00i still have to resort to those objects
10:03so that's something off the streets banking
10:06talks tough
10:07uh... most recently for example i was uh...
10:10tried to strike
10:11information about what one records from a variety of sources including the
10:14national archives abstract
10:16worldcom what's
10:19instructors for particular well
10:22ill-equipped to put this together and i think we face
10:26so that's what i did
10:28attendees thought we'd like to nine
10:30also spa salon continued xox
10:33so subpoenaed records that you can log
10:36which are just built on top of the souzas inspectors
10:39has become very very popular with them historians perhaps not surprisingly
10:45in doing sort of reverse engineering this basically backing
10:48i think i'm doing anything wrong but i think a breaking any laws
10:51uh...
10:52in each of the serb student
10:55he said
10:58inaugurate topic but she is the products i see it coming on estimate
11:05but still feel so guilty
11:07doing something for the stuff from sneaking around
11:10arether rhetoric that you know we we've been getting recently about tricks of
11:14sort of terrorism
11:16effective
11:17and the horrible horrible circumstances are different schwartz
11:22it makes you feel like doing anything other than using split in two places
11:25you've been
11:28uh... and that really suggesting that it's not just a question of mortal
11:31suppression of culture and politics
11:33and we'd
11:36the christian nikki came back to me is what we really mingled with axes
11:41notepad
11:43is something called invisible as friends
11:47invisible threads about fishing records relating to the administration of the
11:50website policy
11:51to help strike
11:53they sort of it
11:59as part of the practically credit
12:07had
12:09statistics
12:11one thing's spot
12:16st
12:18typical monthly rickles because images that come from
12:21so in order to practice for downloaded
12:25that twelve thousand meters from the national archives
12:27begin reducing the engineering it first
12:30are in effect citrus to those images
12:33or that the portrait
12:35and that was a case of the night reading about the base
12:38subject re re smoke and mirrors and to spread into place
12:42answered
12:42to be a great weekend
12:46and what we ended up with you something which is you know i think compelling
12:51but challenging
12:52and uh... what discovered
13:02that were not present this
13:04often off
13:05what's the popular
13:08outside
13:10uh... but he said
13:12uh...
13:14and ripped up the question i wanted to talk which was given by markowitz
13:17guarantees that the national digital for new zealand cheap enough to live in
13:20but what he did was he tells
13:23so it'll be on the problems that we see you know why
13:26in order to find up deficit of problems
13:30what's the copyright status of these documents
13:33a big problem
13:35is the responsibility yet we have towards the people whose lives have
13:38document
13:41their problem
13:43the more important problem
13:45you know and that's weird intellectual energy should be pointed
13:49we have to remember that these power in the bureaucratic categories
13:52the two tend to be fun
13:54seems to be walked
13:56is power in the record keeping system which contains the remnants
13:59of this bureaucratic system
14:02is pal
14:03aggregations of opened dot
14:05every idealize or not
14:08and sometimes you have to confront that
14:11we have to ask the difficult questions
14:13cost down please
14:16seek more
14:18active defenses
14:20because ultimately i think
14:21yet exits
14:22can never seems to be given
14:24on some level has to be taken
14:28x estimate is not connected gratitude
14:31compliance with consumption
14:33but the resistance
14:36really have to find ways encouraging those people who struggled with the
14:39power of dr
14:41and he tried tight this new prices on eugene
14:45we have to give them
14:46the support
14:47incompetence to explore
