We believe that humanistic inquiry, grounded in interpretation, has much to contribute to the development of technologies if they are to help us reveal ambiguity and paradox, allowing human-scale exploration of complex systems.</p> <p>In the laboratory environment, theoretical and methodological discussions happen side-by-side with hands-on work with digital materials. Humanities scholars and students, designers, engineers, and computer scientists engage together in ongoing tool design as defined by the specific needs of participating humanities projects.</p> <div class="col-sm-8"> <div class="row responsive"> <h2>We build open source tools for research.</h2> <div> <br/> <br/> <a class="" href="#"> <img src="http://hdlab.stanford.edu/img/data-pen.png" alt="Breve" width="300" class="img-rounded"> </a> <div class="media-body"> <h3 class="media-heading">Data Pen</h3> <p>2017 – ongoing <br /> Data Pen is an instrument for building data sets that draws from linked data sources. <br /> <a href="https://humanitiesplusdesign.github.io/data-pen/">App</a> | <a href="https://github.com/humanitiesplusdesign/data-pen">Code</a> </p> </div> </div> <br/> <br/> <div> <br/> <br/> <a class="" href="#"> <img src="http://hdlab.stanford.edu/img/breve.png" alt="Breve" width="300" class="img-rounded"> </a> <div class="media-body"> <h3 class="media-heading">Breve</h3> <p>2015 – ongoing <br /> Breve is a meta-visualization for tables with editing built in.
