"This scene of fishermen casting their net in front of a moated fortress catered to a taste for picturesque and ancient architecture. Working on the smooth surface of an oak panel allowed Van Goyen to achieve a variety of painterly effects and enliven a limited color palette as he evoked crumbling masonry, rippling water, or cottony clouds. Although the artist studied medieval monuments in preparing such scenes, the castle shown here is imaginary, pieced together from both observation and fantasy." https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/436559?searchField=All&showOnly=openAccess&ft=jan+van+eyck&offset=40&rpp=20&pos=41

Killer Entertainments displays 33 viral videos of military actions in the War on Terror shared between three viewing windows. In order to generate micro-narratives on political and economic dialogue, military activities, real persons, places, and video strategies, points of concern are taken from the recordings. By creating a network of common themes to stimulate discussion about the war, the project attempts to contextualize the videos. In addition to scholarly printing, references are obtained from numerous film, news, and government websites.
In order to explore what the project has to offer, visitors are encouraged to actively participate. Visitors acquire information from interactions through the mix of music, voice, and visual interactive structures. Be it terror, panic, excitement, adrenaline and calm, the raw video captures the full spectrum of human emotions. Viral videos encourage the viewer to bear witness through the sights caught on film and the sounds of gunfire, orders and profanity to war at it's most real form. The videos chosen for review are intentionally transient in nature and can be found on any variety of popular video sharing sites.

It includes links to scholarly outside sources; maps of where major Native American tribes and their territories; removal routes; etc. This project also displays materials that give a better understanding or overview, such as maps of where tribes were located, and the routes in which they may have been forced off of their land. There also appears to be an article that leads to several sources relating to the subject at hand, including Google Books and other articles from Native American authors.

The project covers the void in written content by interpreting the texts, collating them with others, and providing search indexes, as King John's fine rolls are still in print editions along with the european parliament records up to 1272. Within a hyperlinked list, the key references are arranged chronologically, allowing for the simple location and search of particular years.Hyperlinks for Zoomify-enhanced facsimile manuscript images are placed at the top, and duplicated in the transcribed text, until a fine roll is opened from the list. This structure provides convenient access to a wide variety of content formats for the user.
The material is provided in a minimaliic sdesign, interspersed with just a few footnotes to include the logic behind the precise date of an entry, reference to another document, or judgment on an editorial translation, since the original document was in Latin. As a multimedia archive, the Henry III Fine Rolls Project delivers an important service, expanding analysis through different index search tools not present in the print media. However, the project is, of course, closely related to the printing activities of the rolls.

Manuscripts and articles are available to view, as well as personal letters from Alleyn. There’s even various entries of his diary found within this vast collection.
