This is the class blog for Multimedia Lit Journal Entries. This course will focus on literature that allows the reader to use multiple senses to understand the text and “interactive” literature that forces the reader to be an active participant.

Immersed Into the Dark Art
I completely fell into the story of this book. I read for about 6 hours straight in the car on a road trip because I couldn't put it down. Personal Effects pulls the reader into the story mentally and visually. Following the unfolding mystery led me to different websites that explained a few things that the book in front of you couldn't show you. Zachary Taylor's myspace page was an active account with some information that you wouldn't get without going beyond the book. I finished the book and was mind-boggled by that one sheet of paper with the colorful drawing in the book that you could hold and look at yourself. It showed an unexpected twist that literally made my jaw drop. Really reading into this book and fully immersing yourself by reading the files, looking at the pictures, finding the websites will get you wrapped into the story more than you thought possible.
