I think the discussion we need to continue shoud be driven by both concrete examples of uses in higher ed _and_ playful 'discoveries' of the potentiai of these tools. Exciting times ahead I think! Thanks Lee and Jean-Claude.

McGann discusses visiting with a friend and playing with an image of Rosetti's "The Blessed Damosel" on Adobe Photoshop: "We...began filtering it in a series of playful and random ways. At a certain point we generated an image that startled me. The arbitrary distortion had suddenly clarified a chromatic organization I had never noticed in the picture, familiar as it was."
