@fotisjannidis.bsky.social's stay at @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social also involved students in 1:1 sessions and at the Cultural Analytics Research Lab #CARL, where we co-taught a workshop on systematic manual and automated #CLS annotation and output evaluation through #IAA and model-as-judge checks.

#CCLS2026 came to a close with a fun tour through Potsdam’s Sanssouci Park. Sans souci means “no worries” or “carefree” — and after two intense days of talks, posters, discussions, and conversations over coffee, we wish exactly that to all participants😎🍹

From the Tagus to the Volga, from Rome to China: how does poetry imagine geography? At #CCLS2026, @tonyamart.bsky.social, @artjomshl.bsky.social & @plechac.bsky.social trace the “from A to B” formula across 6 European poetic corpora. Seems many poets liked the east-west axis: doi.org/10.26083/tud...
