Re-Mediation Assignment

Our final assignment in the Gateway course was one in which we were asked to “re-mediate” a previous assignment.  The goal behind this, unlike the re-purposing assignment, was to take something we had done and present it in an entirely new medium, rather than just write a paper with a different audience in mind.

For my re-mediation, I chose to take a research paper on the Roman Coliseum and Greek Theatre of Dionysus and make a visual presentation via a poster board.  The goal behind this was to create a work that would take what had been written in the original paper and present it primarily through contrasting images so that viewers could see the differences for themselves rather than need to conceptualize the differences with a mental image.  Additionally, the layout of the poster board allows for a form that creates a Venn-diagram of sorts.
