Dana Gavin deposited Expect Resistance (To the Message): Effective Design in Protest Signs from 2017 Women’s Marches in the group
Humanities Commons Summer Camp on Humanities Commons 5 years, 3 months ago
An examination of images of protest signs carried at Women’s March protest marches in the United States on January 21, 2017, reveals that these signs are certainly visual arguments, and that they represent a new and cogent extension of fourth-wave feminism that attempts to address a variety of feminist concerns that is dependent on social media o…[Read more]

@mollief I write about Sherlock Holmes whenever possible — but the paper I am preparing to upload is about a Holmesian video game. I haven’t delivered a paper on the Doyle stories yet, but as soon as I do, I hope to help populate the field.
@caitlinduffy49 I look forward to reading your Dracula article! Right up my alley.
I’ve uploaded my vis…[Read more]

This is the challenge I have been waiting for, because I have felt utterly unsure what work I could/should share. This is fantastic.
I think today I am going to clean up and upload two papers I presented at two conferences. I have only presented them, not even tried to publish them, which made me leery for some reason about putting them on CORE.…[Read more]

Dana Gavin replied to the topic Maps and Speculative Fiction – Research Recommendations in the discussion
Speculative and Science Fiction on Humanities Commons 5 years, 5 months ago
One of the notes I made as I was thinking about your original query is the ethics of map-making (of imaginary worlds as well as “real” ones). It sounds like both Tally and Harvey might be helpful with that? I’m thinking about my own biases as I try to make up my own maps, assumptions, that sort of thing. Have you run into any of those issues in…[Read more]

Dana Gavin replied to the topic Challenge #2: Networking (6/11-24) in the discussion
Humanities Commons Summer Camp on Humanities Commons 5 years, 5 months ago
This challenge was difficult for me at first — until @kirstenbussiere posted about completing the challenge on Twitter, was retweeted by HC, and I found out how networking can manifest!
Like everyone (I imagine), I felt awkward starting a new conversation in groups that seemed inert, but I understand that if no one overcomes the awkwardness,…[Read more]

I am so interested in this topic — thank you for introducing it!
You are probably well familiar with this online article, but I found it really helpful to get myself situated: https://bookriot.com/2015/09/02/making-maps-books-two-cartographers-tell-us-done/
I find the idea of the back-and-forth between the map-makers and the authors really…[Read more]

Caitlin,
My profile picture was the clearest photo I could find that had been taken in the last 10 years. 😀
My cover photo is a picture I took in the British Museum several years ago, and it’s relevant to my Victorian/British studies research. I use these two pictures across all of my social media platforms as well as my website.
I’d like to…[Read more]

Dana Gavin replied to the topic Welcome! in the discussion
Humanities Commons Summer Camp on Humanities Commons 5 years, 6 months ago
Hi there! I’m Dana Gavin, wrapping up coursework in my PhD studies at Old Dominion University while I teach at Marist College. I am excited to learn more about being a very deliberate and thoughtful online communicator. For example, academic Twitter has been a joy for me, but I want to make sure I am proceeding forward with best practices in mind.…[Read more]
