NETWORKS THEORY, ANALYSIS, VISUALIZATION Network analysis – a term encompassing a wide
variety of practices with applications throughout (social) scientific and digital humanistic domains
“Network theory concerns itself with the study of graphs as a representation of either symmetric relations or, more generally, of asymmetric relations between discrete objects.” (Wikipedia, 6 italicized words are mine—all debatable in humanist circles)
Network theory has its own conceptual vocabulary to express relationships between objects (e.g. betweenness, centrality, density, path length, modularity) – how can we interpret these analytical terms for humanities data?

NETWORK THEORY, ANALYSIS, VISUALIZATION (2) Social network analysis SNA looks at
relationships between actors – what is the nature of interaction?
Latour adds objects in actor-network theory ANT – what could the relation of an actor and an object be?
Networks once drawn (drawn by Moretti- Network Theory, Plot Analysis), are now digitally created and manipulated
Powerful way of exploring multidimensional multi-scalar data (Brughmans)

SOME BEGINNING REMARKS

@ELIJAHMEEKS ON THE NETWORK
"The network is not a social network or geographic network or logical network but rather a primitive object capable of and useful for the modeling and analysis of relationships between a wide variety of objects."

BASIC PRINCIPLES (1) Not all study of networks is quantitative
(Brughmans on Malkin, 2011), just as every mapping is not made of spatial data onto a map interface
Digital tools for network visualization and analysis use tabular data (quantification can be a challenge, metadata adds qualitative contours)
Digital tools like Gephi allow both for networks to be explored visually, and for static visuals of them to be exported. It does not allow for sharing.
Data visualization is a kind of “problem-posing”; we should avoid fetishizing the final visual. (McCosker/Wilke) – “diagrammatic” thinking

BASIC PRINCIPLES (2) Tabular data used by network viz platforms
are of two basic sorts Nodes (discrete entities in a network, and any
fixed metadata about them – gender, geospatial data)
Edges (specific instances of relations between nodes)
NB: Gephi does generate a nodes table if it is missing (option: create missing nodes)

A BRIEF COMPARISON -
standalone open source Established large user
community = many plug-ins
Takes a while to learn Science/humanities use Not easy to share
without giving away data
Network statistics
web-based free Relatively new Learning curve low Specifically for the
humanities simple to deal with data
multi-dimensionality Data is not kept “without any barriers”
