Charting the American Bottom

http://theamericanbottom.org/

“Charting the American Bottom” is a multi-platform project in digital humanities that looks to define a new category of narrative geography and landscape curation. Pulling equally from the legacy of illustrated County Atlases of the late 19th century, the “tour” structure of the 1930s WPA American Guides, and the evolving interconnectivity of online frameworks, this project provides an urgent model for the construction of landscape publics. Importantly this website is designed to serve as an invitation that facilitates actual navigation of this region—a threshold between the world out-there and the world of the archive—and as such promotes a kind of spatial encounter with an empowered, literate, landscape public. Our goal, then, is to provide a framework for deciphering the irreducible geography we find today.

Feminist Search Tool*

https://feministsearchtool.nl/

In collaboration with Utrecht-based art & research collective Read-in Hackers & Designers developed a Feminist Search Tool*,–a digital interface that invites users to explore different ways of engaging with the records of the Utrecht University Library, putting forth the question: Why are the authors of the books I read so white, so male, so Eurocentric?.
