digital archives

A couple of thoughts here, Michelle. First, while I see how it makes good sense for this purposes of this project to keep yourself to the digital (to see its edges and ghosts, politics and problems), I think most of us now understand there to be no pure digital outside of or in opposition to the real (where you ask your advisor to make the connection...) There's something so false and yet so true in your method (one which I was often taken to task for, rightly, in Learning from YouTube, where to better understand its architecture, ownership, norms, and practices, I chose not to leave it and not to let my students leave it: but who uses YouTube (or archival research) like that!?!)
