  • Space and movement : dance, art, and the poetry of William Carlos Williams

    Creator:
    Hoch, Jamie

  • Abandoning the girl show ghetto : introducing and incorporating care ethics to girls' animation

    Creator:
    Hughes, Adam C.
    Abstract:
    In regards to animation created and aimed at them, girls are largely underserved and underrepresented. This underrepresentation leads to decreased socio-cultural capital in adulthood and a feeling of sacrificed childhood. Although there is a common consensus in entertainment toward girls as a potentially deficient audience, philosophy and applied ethics open...
