I’d like to talk about a free, open source software application called Sophie, which is designed to support media-rich authoring. I’d like to do this in the context of a broader discussion/viewing of online texts that consider design, kinetic typography, database aesthetics, interface and motion graphics as forms of – potentially – scholarly communication. Finally, all of this relates to Sophie, and notions of composing in spatial and temporal modes, where the book meets video…

    Very much looking forward to this, Holly — I’ve been using Sophie 1 in my digital media studies classes, and am excited about seeing what Sophie 2 can do!

    And the phrase “where the books meets video” is very resonant!
