The UBC talk was around 7pm in my timezone and made for a perfect lockdown evening entertainment. Needless to say, I was very enthused by this cool project which was publishing down-to-earth DH experiments and giving ‘girly’ literature the attention it deserves. As a more or less self-taught DH scholar, accessible and beginner-friendly DH tutorials also have a special place in my heart.

I was a very avid reader as a kid and have strong feelings about many children/YA book series to this day. Although I’m ashamed to say I had never read the Baby-Sitters Club series, I thought the project was pure genius. And it took a new addition to the DSC Multilingual Mystery team to get us out of our rut.īefore attending the UBC talk, I had been following the Data-Sitters Club from afar for a while and read some of the books they had published. Lee and I exchanged hundreds of text messages, but one thing we never confronted was the fact that we both were just stuck, the way Anouk and I got stuck on DSC #9: The Ghost in Anouk’s Laptop around the same time. (All made possible thanks to Katia, who left her self-isolation for the first time in four months to retrieve an errant package of Quebecois graphic novels, and her husband John, whom she enlisted to scan the graphic novels.)īut we didn’t write a multilingual mystery. the books they were based on, in English and French. We used some of the methods from DSC #9: Text-Comparison-Algorithm-Crazy Quinn to compare the graphic novels vs. Scanning and OCRing the whole original English BSC corpus was one thing in fall 2019 (when, in retrospect, all things felt attainable) slogging through so many French translations during 2020 was another matter.Īt the beginning of the fall, Lee and I took a look at the French translations of the graphic novels that we’d explored in DSC #5: The DSC and the Impossible TEI Quandaries for a talk called “ Layered Adaptation and Warped Nostalgia: Francophone Translations of the Baby-Sitters Club Graphic Novels” at virtual Flyover Comics.

Other days, I shuddered at the prospect of fixing apostrophes and characters with accents on the clunky Windows laptop running ABBYY FineReader. Some days scanning and then proofreading the OCR seemed attainable. (Her daughters are fans of the French graphic novels.)īut the pandemic wore on and on.

The Czur ET 16 plus showed up on my 35th birthday and was the best present I could imagine many thanks to Cécile Alduy, my department chair, for making it happen. Cut off from the flatbed scanner I’d used at work due to the lockdown, I inquired if my department could buy me a document camera / scanner that I’d seen on an Instagram ad, of all places. Lee arranged for a used bookseller in Quebec to ship every one of their Les Baby-Sitters books to my house. We raced forward into April 2020, adopting translation corpus-building as a pandemic hobby. While everyone else was buying up all the yeast and flour and baking bread with it, Lee and I were scraping a fan wiki and making the ultimate metadata sheet for our corpus. In retrospect, it’s easy to recognize that book for what it was: 10,000 words of early-pandemic stress energy. It’s been over a year since Lee and I cleaned up ghost cat data-hairballs with webscraper.io and OpenRefine.
