My Digital Labor, Urban Space, and Materiality class will be using the drag-and-drop framework Scroll Kit to create multimedia “device narratives.” Here’s the tutorial I’ve created to teach them to use Scroll Kit.

- “An Oral History of the March on Washington” (Smithsonian Magazine)
- “Brooklyn Took It” (Contently)
