Tutorial: Curating Oral Histories with Data

Averaging one to two hours in length, oral history interviews produce vast amounts of unstructured or semi-structured human language. The archives that house oral history interviews can be rich sites of exploration-if visitors can avoid getting overwhelmed. In this workshop, we will discuss strategies for curating vast amounts of audio for the public using artificial intelligence and statistical methods. Using our Obama Presidency Oral History and the Elders Project digital archives as case studies, together we will work through key processes and decision points, as well as their implications. Workshop participants will develop a sense of what tools are available when using data to curate, strategies for working with large audio archives, and ways of thinking about how to make these tools work toward a project's design goals.No prior experience in oral history or programming necessary.

Chris Pandza is a designer and oral historian at Columbia University whose practice focuses on making oral history archives more interesting, accessible, and equitable. Pandza has led public-facing design for the Obama Presidency Oral History and Elders Project. Madeline Alexander is a public historian and Project Manager for the Elders Project. With a Masters in Public History from the University of York and extensive experience in historical narrative and media ethics, she has served in various roles, including Engagement Coordinator for Black Communities at History Colorado and Co-creator/Historical Consultant for the award-winning documentary short "Isle of Mine".
