ABOUT IN MEDIA RES



In Media Res is dedicated to experimenting with collaborative, multi-modal
forms of online scholarship.



Each day, a different scholar will curate a 30-second to 3-minute video
clip/visual image slideshow accompanied by a 300-350-word impressionistic
response.



We use the title "curator" because, like a curator in a museum, you are
repurposing a media object that already exists and providing context through
your commentary, which frames the object in a particular way.



The clip/comment combination are intended to both introduce the curator's
work to the larger community of scholars (as well as non-academics who
frequent the site) and, hopefully, encourage feedback/discussion from that
community.



Theme weeks are designed to generate a networked conversation between
curators. All the posts for that week will thematically overlap and the
participating curators each agree to comment on one another's work.



Our goal is to promote an online dialogue amongst scholars and the public
about contemporary approaches to studying media.



In Media Res provides a forum for more immediate critical engagement with
media at a pace closer to how we typically experience media



In Media Res is a publication of MediaCommons. MediaCommons is a strong
advocate for the right of media scholars to quote from the materials they
analyze, as protected by the principle of "fair use." If such quotation is
necessary to a scholar's argument, if the quotation serves to support a
scholar's original analysis or pedagogical purpose, and if the quotation
does not harm the market value of the original text -- but rather, and on
the contrary, enhances it -- we must defend the scholar's right to quote
from the media texts under study.

Carnelia Gipson   (Research Assistant)
