Tinderbox Meetup, Sat. Jan. 18, 2025 (Video): Analyzing Literature (QDA), Intro to New View

This Tinderbox Meetup podcast features a co-hosted discussion among Tinderbox users and its designer, Mark Bernstein. The podcast begins with introductions and a brief overview of upcoming events, then transitions into a discussion about a student's challenges using Tinderbox's MapView for writing hierarchical articles. Malcolm MacGarvin then presents his project, a Tinderbox-based analysis of Lawrence Durrell's *Alexandria Quartet*, demonstrating a method for extracting themes and relationships from text using custom attributes and functions. The discussion concludes with further exploration of Tinderbox functionalities, including the use of stamps, prototypes, and the hyperbolic view for text analysis, along with a preview of a new Tinderbox view under development. A key takeaway is the demonstration of how Tinderbox can be used for qualitative text analysis, creating linked notes for themes, characters, and locations, enhancing text exploration and analysis.
