    Not to self-promote, but as long as we are considering non-traditional research presentation and visual methods for thinking through the world, I would like to put in for comics as one place to do that. Here are some links of (mostly) online projects that are doing awesome work in comics and research.

    First mention: http://adventureschoolforladies.com/

    This is the program I will be attending in two weeks. Though it is not focused on producing non-fiction comics, it's an interesting nexus of production and research.

    Second mention: Drawmedy https://drawmedy.wordpress.com/

    This fantastic blog uses cartooning, collage, and writing to explore academic themes. I am in love with this project - you should heck it out!

    Fourth mention : book length treatments of various sorts - these are not strictly speaking academic, but they engage with similar conversations about meaning, memory, and representation.

    Joe Sacco's work: http://www.amazon.com/Safe-Area-Gorazde-Eastern-1992-1995/dp/1560974702

    Logicomix : http://www.amazon.com/Logicomix-Apostolos-Doxiadis/dp/0747597200

    If we think about memoirs as auto-ethnography, there are many more to add..
