  2. Highways of the Mind

    Highways of the Mind explores the history of the interstate highway system and its transformative impact on the physical and cultural landscapes of America. Beginning with the 1939 New York World’s Fair and
    tracing the development of America’s automotive culture, Highways of the Mind combines interactive
    multimedia features with original scholarly content to provide new insight into the figure of the
    superhighway as a metaphor for social progress through technology. We show that the
    superhighway is a compelling 20th-century metaphor that reveals the complex nature of humankind's
    fascination with technologies of transportation, from our fantasies of techno-utopianism to our
    anxieties about the disappearance of nature and the dehumanizing impact of modern technology.

    A scholarly multimedia work exploring the rhetorics and cultural impact of the American superhighway system in urban planning, urban/environmental criticism, ecological studies, infrastructural studies and science fiction.

  7. The Future of Russian: Language Culture in the Era of New Technology

    This project deals with a phenomenon of global relevance, and its results will therefore be of interest to a wider audience than exclusively Russian studies.

    New media technology has radically changed the conditions of linguistic communication worldwide. In Russia, the technological revolution has taken place at a time of dramatic political and social upheaval, which further reinforces the process and its consequences in several areas, including language development, text production and text dissemination. Traditional forms, means and contexts of communication are challenged as new genres and media develop, and these developments have an impact on language change and linguistic culture. Trends in the centralization and censorship of the more conventional media compound the effects of new technologies: as television stations and newspapers become increasingly controlled by interests controlled by or sympathetic to the political leaders, the Internet is rapidly becoming the outlet of choice for voices of opposition.
