Visualizing Santa Anna’s Networks: Introduction to Gephi
Friday, March 3, 11:30-1:00pm, CLA Computer Lab 1.404

Keeping track of individuals and their relationships in research can be a daunting task. In this workshop, we will introduce Gephi, a free network visualization and exploration software. Collectively, we will look at correspondence between 19th-century Mexican politicians from the Benson’s archives to reconstruct President Santa Anna’s social network. Using these letters, you will learn how to create data sets for network analysis, bring them into Gephi, and explore some of the platform’s powerful features and plug-ins.

Presented in conjunction with the 37th annual ILASSA Student Conference in Enlish and Spanish.
