Digital Humanities, research-creation, and emerging hybrid media publication platforms: reimagining Public Journal

Academic journals rarely feature research-creation projects: as such, they are often limited by conventions inherited from print publishing. Recent efforts to create digital and/or online journals can potentially result in new publishing opportunities for scholars and artists. This project will examine how international online f journals in art history, visual studies, and film and media studies deal with hybrid media and research-creation. Public, a Canadian journal known for featuring both scholars and artists, is currently looking to increase its digital presence and to launch a new website that will enable it to better integrate research-creation projects and hybrid media scholarship. This project will enable Public to look at best practices and to design an effective digital publication strategy.
