New! My English 138 students have begun to publish their hypertexts. See some work in progress below. Earlier this term they remixed Cory Doctorow's novel Little Brother in machnima (animated film) shot in the Second Life virtual community. About ten films have been produced; they're all available on this YouTube playlist. I learned about the novel from Henry Jenkins, and thought that it would help students get more out of the machinima-in-SL assignment. These machinima are a first pass at video composition for the students, who will eventually compose other video (as PSAs, interviews, dramatizations, etc) for embedding in academic hypertexts like these:
convict labor child labor and migrant farm workers
sweatshops in the bay area strippers as low-wage workers
