In particular, the interconnected and open nature of the web has greatly increased the dimensions, sources, comparisons, remixes, etc., that we process as information in our (re)making meaning of the world. Our tools and frameworks for these kind of multi-modal, contextual, productions of knowledge and meaning making, school based reading comprehension and critical engagement skills being the most primary site of these occurrences, however, are still largely one dimensional and simply text based. The Animated Annotations project, using Audre Lordes seminal piece “The Transformation of Silence into Language and Action,”attempts to remedy this by building in animated annotations which allow the designer of an interactive text module, to put the source material into conversation with other articles, authors, videos, sounds, interaction, and the rest of the contextual world that makes up the constellation of meaning in the piece.

Users can access each contextual module by clicking on the analogous passage, which will “flip” around to reveal its annotation module on the back. Alternately, as shown in this demo, ‘creators’ can choose an accordion animation, where the contextual module will reveal and hide itself in an accordion style instead of the default flip.
