=== Week 6: Oct 2 ===
Two options - select one
- 1. Create a treatment of a text - analogue or digital or a combination - that illustrates / exemplifies / illuminates / extends an idea from Hayles. Create a technotext. It doesn't have to start with a literary text. A comic version of a page or two from a scholarly essay? Others? You might want to share ideas on Twitter.
- B. Invent your own writing medium, using materials from nature or around the house, and write a text of 20 words or so. Invent something to inscribe with, and inscribe on. Be prepared to discuss how the medium shapes the message - and it's meaning. Is what you have written a techotext?

=== Week 3 ===
Discussion of Shirky, //Cognitive Surplus//.
- Part i: Amateurs. Low-barrier publishing. Publish first, filter later and other models for publishing. Intrinsic rewards in sharing Groups. Combinability. Sharing: personal, communal, public, civic.
- Part ii: Implications for and applications in DH. Projects in the DH.
=== Week 4 ===
Shirky, part 2. Focus mainly on Shirky's chapter on Personal, Public, Communal and Civic Sharing for ideas.
Find examples of communal or civic sharing projects in the humanities - that is, the arts, philosophy, history, etc. Online, off line, present or historical. Create a poster, set of blog posts, page, timeline, video, PPT (!) - something digital or physical to post or bring to class so you and we can talk about the project and connections between the projects. Something visual that you will supplement with explanation and comment. Your collecting and curating of this material might itself become a publicly shared artifact. That is, the narrative of curating this project might be what you present.
This will require some study - some research to find a project, some reading and even email exchange to become familiar enough with the project that you could participate, some reading to make an argument for it as civic sharing. That's the level of engagement I'm looking for: Enough familiarity that you could participate.
But our focus is on humanities projects that move into communal and civic sharing. We're testing Shirky's sense of what kind of real world work sharing of cognitive surplus can do.
Post questions, advice, ideas, progress using #en4709.

==Follow up activity for week 2: Refer to Lanham, [[http://www.rhetoricainc.com/eofa/e_of_a/index.html What's Next for Text]]==
Combine word and image in such a way that they become bi-stable. Distribute your artifact in some way: Print out and bring in, post on twitter, post to your blog and link and tweet the link...
And so we have two kinds of “seriousness.” In alphabetic seriousness, we concentrate on //looking through// the notational system to the abstract reasoning beneath it. We build a monopolistic attention economy. In pattern-poetry seriousness, we accept a bi-stable seriousness which allows us to toggle from word to image, from //at// to //through// and back again. Digital expression, the familiar computer screen, creates, and assumes, a bi-stable seriousness. Perhaps that is why it often seems, to all of us print-readers, distinctly unsettling.

Example: [[http://www.flickr.com/photos/mcmorgan/7909598730/in/photostream/ Print books as dead trees]]
== Prepare for Week 3 ==
Read Shirky, //Cognitive Surplus//. Take notes with an eye to questions, discussion, connections with other readings, and ideas on what we might engage as a project for week 4. Collect illustrations that might supplement Shirky's ideas. Ideas, comments, examples, extras, use #en4709.
