Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

This experiment with annotation and a video trailer constitutes one of the earliest experiments associated with this project. While a quality of remix is obvious in the sampling of an archive of clips featuring South Broadway as a background location, remix also determined the very form the experiment takes. Borrowing a template from Jonathan McIntosh, this annotated remix trailer explored one approach for displaying sources, expanding the possibilities of citation in connecting disparate networked materials. The use of Popcorn.js, an HTML5 javascript library allows the annotation to unfold in real time which gives the video a dynamic quality. Video and media annotation has since been incorporated into the Scalar platform and is used in the Scalar project you are currently reading.
