Map of SXSW talks by Jenkins and Johnson
Here’s a link to an image of the keynote talk at the 2008 SXSW conference by Henry Jenkins and Steve Johnson. I’d post the image itself, but it’s pretty dang big.
It’s kinda cool, kinda makes me want to go to SXSW (though it also makes me think that I might be in the wrong age demographic), but it actually makes me think that I might have students in ENGL 516 do some kind of “end of the semester” project where they make a “map” like this of the course so we can post them someplace. As long as it’s something that would fun and not too much busy work.
If this is what I think it is, I’ve been to a conference where the artist sits in the back of the room and draws the illustration as the speakers speak. It’s pretty darn cool.
