Research

AADHum continues to deepen its commitments to broadening the landscape of Black digital humanities, while also highlighting the numerous places where Black DH intersects with electronic literature, digital storytelling, computational poetics, and public humanities more generally. Through our own boundary-pushing research collaborations with leading scholars in the arts and humanities, AADHum serves as a vibrant center for Black DH research both in the greater Washington, DC area as well as nationally and internationally.

LiteraryDJ

LiteraryDJ is a creative research platform for digital remixing at the intersection of electronic literature, human-computer interaction, and experimental design. Inspired by the logic and interface of DJ decks and turntables, it treats remixing as a method for exploring, analyzing, and recomposing literary texts and archival collections through natural language processing, data visualization, and emerging computational techniques. By making advanced computational methods legible, interactive, and accessible, LiteraryDJ creates new opportunities for interpretation, experimentation, and public engagement with literary archives.
