Traversing Digital Boundaries: Inappropriate Covers

Submitted by Julie on Apr 11, 2009, 10:37 PM

Curators Braxton Soderman and Justin Katko discuss how their art show Inappropriate Covers traverses digital boundaries. They write, "Inappropriate Covers includes multi-media works by eleven established and emerging artists, chosen for the aesthetic tensions they generate through acts of appropriation, reconfiguration, and erasure." I'd also like to thank director Jo-Ann Conklin and the rest of the staff at the David Winton Bell Gallery at Brown University for allowing me to film there.

This is a profile of one new media studies classroom at Brown University as an exemplar of a flexible and positive learning environment. With thanks to Mark Tribe. My course: http://tvhere.livejournal.com

First, I'd like to belatedly point any blog readers to my November HASTAC contribution, a forum discussion that I co-hosted with Chris Hanson:

Second, I'd like to know if any fellow Scholars will be attending the MLA conference? I will be putting in an appearance as a total neophyte (it's not really my field), so I thought I'd bring Peep the bunny along for some vlogging. I'd love to interview you if I can find you!

I'm also seeking pointers to interesting uses (or non-uses) of technology by/at the MLA. For example, Dave Parry blogged about a "'grassroots' funding" initiative.

Hello! I plan to make some of my contributions to the HASTAC Scholars community in videoblog form. In this installment: What is twitter? What is its appeal? How are people using it? How are people using it creatively? The Battlestar Galactica RPG twittercast and twitter in the classroom.
