<div class="">The Call for Proposals (<a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf3iW9S6ZuKLA3TaOP89c9sLrQVDV4C7nktyEh6xatZoXk-hw/viewform?usp=sf_link__;!!HXCxUKc!lOaAhTQ_Ar13Weff7XSmVkdZUcvQhVjiBO0lRJRJY_YrtwqCL6GLWCDZb5R2vqs$" class="">CFP</a>) for <a href="https://digitalhumanities.msu.edu/dh-locus-fall-2021-spin-offs-the-mi-diaries-as-a-starting-point/" class="">Locus:
Spin Offs: The MI Diaries as a Starting Point</a> has been released, and is due <b class="">

<div class=""><strong class="">What are all the ways that an existing Digital Humanities project can be adapted, grafted, remixed, and spun off into other projects? How can we creatively employ methods, ideas, data, and tools from one research group and use
them to feed something new?</strong></div>
<div class="">
<p class=""><a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://mi-diaries.org/__;!!HXCxUKc!lOaAhTQ_Ar13Weff7XSmVkdZUcvQhVjiBO0lRJRJY_YrtwqCL6GLWCDZGGVv-ns$" class="">MI Diaries</a> has been collecting self-recorded audio reflections from Michigan residents since
the Covid-19 lockdowns began in spring 2020. Participants respond to weekly questions like
<em class="">What are you grateful for this week? </em>and <em class="">Are there any news stories that have stood out to you lately?
</em>MI Diaries was developed to capture the effects of social distancing on everyday language. But it has since proven to be fertile ground for the nurturing of other kinds of research as well. The MI Diaries mobile recording app has been adapted for a study
of what people learn about Judaism from watching television. The audio reflections and their transcriptions are being employed to teach learners of English about grammatical structures. Youth participants in a photovoice project have used the app to orally
respond to questions related to the images they have captured.</p>
<p class="">We invite colleagues across MSU to engage with the MI Diaries website and app to see if they can use its audio archive, app infrastructure, transcriptions or other materials – or perhaps just be inspired in ways that we cannot yet imagine.</p>
<p class="">This LOCUS will provide a collegial forum for presentation of MI Diaries-related projects and for broad discussion of how interdisciplinary research can benefit from the spin-off process. We encourage wide participation from scholars in any discipline
to share developments in their research at any stage (including brainstorming, works in progress, and/or fully developed projects). </p>
