A crazy week. I had a workshop with the Centre for Digital Inquiry and the Centre for Interdisciplinary Methodologies at Warwick about Leviathan’s Ear. The project and YouTube stream are available. I am not a screen god. I began work on identifying the challenges for the App Studies workshop that will need to be written […]
I spent some of this week working on Gephi plugins. After a conversation with a colleague, I started porting the Image Preview plugin to the latest version. I thought of doing this earlier this year, but no direct need. I did use some AI help for some of the Java an the port. Next up […]
A long couple of weeks. The main task for this week has been to develop the App Histories toolkit and begin updating the documentation as well. It now needs some testing and beginning to use it for some actual work. Next steps will be to develop some tools to interact with the data, but I […]
Software tasks for this week have focused on a new project tracing AI in mobile applications. This is part of a fellowship project to develop a wider toolkit for app studies to run on High Performance Computers. While I have an existing toolkit, it is designed for laptops or High Throughput processes. The current project […]
Started teaching this week and the world still moves. Having had conversations with the other staff (that will be ongoing), I sketched out some ways of donating data from the Unheard City project and using phones around it. It is a challenge. No doubt the work will change and move, but it raises some interesting […]
After a holiday, it has been slow in getting back into gear. I picked up an administration task to help identify the courses that students had chosen. It was for our administration team and I had a few hours to complete it and get it live. It does need some work and there are a […]
It’s been a while. I did submit my first grant but unsuccessfully. I can take that on board for future. I did write a lightweight scraper for the Internet Archive to do some digging around after getting some files for a sonification project. I also updated some Scopus and Crossref scripts to query for a […]
I submitted my first proposal this week. I am hopeful (or I would not have submitted) but it has brought things into focus. I do not want to say anything else yet but it has clarified a few things and directions. I now need to finish some other work – as the Audio Mostly deadline […]
I’ve been wrapping bits and pieces of the HackRF base app to have some fun. One of the challenges was updating some old code in the AAR that needed a new flag. Next up is to make the gradle build a bit nicer and to add in the name again. I also need to update […]
Less weeknote and more occasional update … I celebrated passing my Viva without corrections by putting in a workshop proposal. I heard last night that it was accepted. Now to organise it. While I was working on the proposal and a paper, I wrote a prototype sonification plugin for Gephi. Now that the workshop exists, […]
