Toxic Livelihoods: A Transmedia Monograph

John Michael-Davis, Assistant Professor of Teaching, Department of Integrative and Global Studies

2020-2021

Project Description

My Global Lab Fellowship produced audio-visual materials for a transmedia monograph rooted in community-based activist research that details the causes, consequences, and corrections to the Israeli-Palestinian e-waste economy. By working closely with Global Lab staff with multi-media expertise, we curated pictures, infographics, maps, audio recordings, and videos to add a vibrant audio-visual supplement that brings elements of the book to life. This media supplement will expand the readership of the book by creating an immersive and visually rich storytelling experience.

Highlight of your experience

I loved working closely with Jeremiah to collaboratively think through and iterate creative and visually rich ways to share the book’s story in a way that reaches a broader audience.
