Love Data: Meme Epigraphy: Student-made Graffiti in RIT Campus Culture
Event Image
Bees? Good and you? Memes are ubiquitous in RIT campus culture, and student-made graffiti is a means for understanding our sense of place and shared identity. Participants in this interactive session will learn how digital technologies are being used to document, preserve, and interpret graffiti and other ephemeral markings (e.g., stickers, chalk art) found across campus, and how they can contribute to a collaborative dataset with RIT Archives and Dr. Jim Rankine’s DHSS-101/103 classes. Come leave your mark at RIT!
