In this project, which is funded by Higher Education Structural Funds (Hochschulraumstrukturmittel), seven university partners and three other institutions deal with theoretical and practical aspects of the Digital Edition from different perspectives.

At the SPSC Lab we are exploring tools to do new ways of analysis of editions containing text and audio. Those tools should enable researchers from the Humanities to analyse material in new ways that have not been possible without a digital edition.

Specifically we currently explore the following topics:

• Network analysis of theater plays, comparing e.g. different edition of the same play.
• Directed information in literature based on information theroetic approaches
• Cross-layer analysis of radio plays by taking in count e.g. the original script, the actual production, paralinguistic information.
