DIGITAL METHODOLOGIES RESEARCH SERIES
Faculty, Students and Staff Welcome
Monday, October 24, 2011
2:30-3:30 pm
Digital Methodologies Presentation
SRSC Innovation Room A
Dr. Shannon Carter, Literature and Languages, will present her project,
Remixing Rural Texas, in the first of the Digital Methodologies Research
Series.
Remixing Rural Texas is an innovative project, funded by a grant from
the National Endowment of the Humanities, which will develop an
interactive prototype to allow the combination of popular remix culture
with academic research and citation practices. The project which is
grounded on critical race narratives in rural, northeast Texas, will
utilize the digital methodologies of aggregation, remixing and
geomapping to enable community and student participants to collect
primary materials (including video documentaries) from historically
inaccessible and underrepresented communities while enabling humanities
scholarship and analysis of the materials.

Increasingly, researchers in all disciplines are drawing upon digital
methodologies to facilitate research. National grant sources are funding
such research, especially when interdisciplinary collaborations and
partnerships can lead to the development of new programs and tools, or
the innovative use of existing programs.
The Digital Methodologies Research Series plans to present two events a
semester, beginning Fall 2011, to allow faculty, staff, and students who
are interested in digital methodologies or who are already involved in
such research to share ideas and make connections.
If you would like to present on your research, please contact Robin Anne
Reid (Robin_Reid at tamu-commerce.edu), Literature and Languages.
