ABSTRACT

This chapter focuses on multimedia scholarship by analyzing project-oriented, remixed, and expanded modes of writing in the Digital Humanities (DH). The projects aim to provide an expanded understanding of remix practices within DH, beyond typical uses of computational tools and data-driven approaches; the focus is on expanding traditional methodologies and writing platforms, rather than replacing them. It has been written in a collaborative, interconnected, and experimental manner, and each section can be navigated in a different order via thematic hashtags. Finally, so as not to essentialize practices in the digital humanities and remix studies as primarily digital in their logic and/or nature, the people wanted to emphasize instead their experimental and humanities-oriented commonalities that propel innovative disciplinary cross-pollinations. Digital humanities projects can be both theory and praxis: they can transcend narrative arguments and rhetorically adopt the forms they seek to elucidate.
