One quick answer:

Here are the ePub+Mobi versions of same content:

isawnyu.github.io/isaw-papers-

Longer:
The "standalone" files have RDFa + other metadata. They remain as parseable as any html file. More amenable to various forms of computational analysis.

Longer, longer:
In general, ISAW Papers (the journal) avoid pagination. Each paragraph is directly citable as a more fine grained solution. E.,g.,

dlib.nyu.edu/awdl/isaw/isaw-pa

Many thanks for responding/asking!

On an experimental basis, I'm working with a visiting student to distribute born-digital html-based articles as "stand alone" files that include all assets and are easily downloaded. See:

isawnyu.github.io/isaw-papers-

They key is that images are included as base64-encoded data urls. The strategic goal is to explore as an open and easily parseable equiv to PDF. More work to do, but I'm pleased with her progress.

Small updates to my popup in maps mini-project.

1) There is now a simple one-marker map at the start. To demo the basic idea.

2) The more complex map now has two folium.FeatureGroups. One for amphitheaters with known sizes, one for amphitheaters for which that info now known. You can turn them on and off.

Github repo:
github.com/sfsheath/holoviews-

Output:
sfsheath.github.io/holoviews-i

@gekitsu Yes. Course this term was "Mapping and Data Visualization". I teach at a place called "Institute for the Study of the Ancient World" so every DH course has an implicit "for the Ancient World" in its title. isaw.nyu.edu .

@electricarchaeo W/o meaning to seem like a stalker... GitHub repo updated to reflect that I can: loop through a selection of amphitheaters in order to make an embedded popup for each that indicates its size in relation to all known sizes.

Folium interactions a little wonky. You sometimes have to click twice. Might depend on window size?

[I think I have now scratched this itch and can get back to work...]

@electricarchaeo almost got it working before class, then worked on it with students in class so they could understand hoops. They got to see me Googling for holoviews help (). After a few dead-ends, here's the result:

As noted earlier in thread, now up to them to make it useful. And do tell if there's a better way...

@electricarchaeo I've decided that in the next 71 minutes I'm going to make a proof-of-concept demo. Or try. And then say, "This can work, take it from here...." And it's not that hard. Point is to get them thinking about combinations of previous work that multiply the impact of their efforts. (Now 70 minutes...)

The big question for my teaching this year is, "Will a student incorporate a visualization in a pop-up as part of their final project, with the combo being implemented in an notebook that I can execute after downloading their work." I've strongly hinted that this is one way to show me they can wrangle and share data and results.

My teaching paradigm this semester has been to share iPython notebooks every week and work though them with students. Only one more to go...

My 12-year old says he doesn't play Fortnite, a game that I hadn't heard about until reading nytimes.com/2018/04/30/well/fa. And he doesn't think the 16-year old does. We'll see...

@sandro Morning Edition. I checked clock when I heard it. 07:17 Eastern Daylight Time. I figure this one, right? npr.org/2018/05/01/607321023/w (though I haven't listened to that stream)

I'm listening to NPR. briefly mentioned in a story on FaceBook alternatives.

Anybody using "Alice Vision"? Looks to be open-source "Photogrammetric Computer Vision Framework" github.com/alicevision/meshroo & alicevision.github.io .

@luka Every recent, public, original (non-reply) toot that becomes known to your instance makes it into the federated timeline - and that includes toots that are boosted or entered into the search box.

Hold on I think I have a diagram that might help...

@paregorios @ryanfb @sgillies @steko

I look forward to engaging in deep back-and-forth with the (soon to exist?) @pleiades bot.

I shall ask it how it feels when I say 'Alexandria'.

More seriously, it actually could respond to lat longs (direct?) tooted at it??

I've been collaborating with a visiting Masters student, Fanny Mezard from the @ecoledeschartes@twitter, on generating ePubs for a born-digital journal (ISAW Papers, which covers the Ancient World). You can see a very early version of her work at isawnyu.github.io/isaw-papers- .

It's worth reading this NYTimes article about a massacre at an early Medieval village on the web because the color pictures are very cool and add to the narrative. nytimes.com/2018/04/25/science (That might be pay-walled, though I think there's free access to a limited # of articles so link may work for all.)

I put a bit of hv code online at github.com/sfsheath/amphitheat . To get full effect, click through on links in first cell to see rendered HTML for the viz and map (which is folium). This is a cleaned-up version of a longer notebook I used in class.

tl;dr: using '+' and '*' to combine outputs is wicked cool if you ignore the annoying config mechanism for hv.
