- PROBLEM: Begin with a problem that you feel has not been sufficiently addressed. Explain why you, an EMAC student, are best suited to address this issue.
- SUMMARY: Craft a one-sentence description. Summarize your project in a memorable phrase that others can easily repeat.
- SIGNIFICANCE: Explain how your project contributes to the greater good, whether that be technical knowledge, a scholarly field, or a social issue,
- UNIQUENESS: Briefly describe how your project is a new, novel, or innovative approach.
Problem: When adaptations are made how much of the iconography of the character still reflects the authorship of the writer/creator? As an EMAC student, I can examine this question from our program’s study of Foucault’s authorship-function, Saussure’s signs/semiotics with language and remediation.
Summary: Authorship and Adaptations: Deducting Sherlock’s signs.
Significance: This project offers significance within our digital culture to reflect on the original authorship of the adaptations that we view or read across mediums.
Uniqueness: This project is new because it’s specifically looking at designated adaptations, three stories from the Sherlock Holmes’s Canon, and specific Doyle “signs”.
