Digital Scholarship Showcase - Curating Juano Hernandez's Radio Career with AI Technologies - Digital Humanities Project

Nick's project archives and contextualizes the radio career of Juano Hernandez, a prolific Black actor in the 1930s and 40s. Nick uses modern algorithms useful for the archival of audio media and discusses the historical entwining of data science into the folk genre and primitivized depictions of marginalized groups. He examines implicit biases and potential ways of contextualizing those stories in the present day.
