Under the Surface

The Under the Surface archive aimed to build an archive to surface authors, composers, and artists who for one reason or another have slipped under the surface of public perception. It does not hold any data itself, but uses automated tools to link together data from a variety of sources.

The Old Joke Archive

The Old Joke Archive aimed to build a digital archive of historic jokes published in books, newspapers, and other materials. The archive will be accompanied by a suite of tools to aid with the transcription, classification, and annotation of the jokes and also to support complex analysis of the jokes and the way ideas and punchlines travel between jokes.

The Gutzkow Digital Edition is a digital edition of the works of 19th century author Karl Gutzkow. It includes modern web-based applications for user-friendly editing and reading of the digital edition.

Experiment Support System

The Experiment Support System is a python-based web-application for building online surveys, questionnaire’s, and crowdsourcing-style experiments. The project has completed in its current form, but a simpler, more maintainable version is currently in development.
