Media Mappers on the Globe
Come learn about how media scholars use interactive maps to enrich their research in film, media, and communication studies in a mini-symposium organized by me, Ennuri Jo. The event and the project are supported by Center for Advanced Research in Global Communication at UPenn.
As a postdoctoral fellow at CARGC since 2024, I have developed Media Mapper, an open-source interactive mapping tool, and Aqueous Earth Catalog, its flagship map and my own digital humanities project. Liang Wu (postdoctoral associate at Cornell University) and Weilin Zhu (Ph.D. student at University of Virginia) will present their own media maps created using Media Mapper.
The event is open to the public. RSVP here.
You can find out more about Media Mapper here. Media Mapper is an open-source application. If you want to collaborate on the Aqueous Earth Catalog or make your own media mapper, please write to me.
