The new issue of Drunken Boat is out. It was designed and programmed by 2 of ELL's Undergraduate Researchers, Marilyn Gable & Von Miller. We thank Ravi Shankar for the opportunity to develop this great addition for born-digital literature and for commissioning the lab to work on it. drunkenboat.com

With the demise of Conifer, ELL has steadily been moving as many of the Flash works held at The NEXT into Ruffle. This article points out the irony of this situation and provides detail about the process we are following to do it. View our article here: tr.ee/dqU1sN
A person with long curly hair and glasses sits at a desk working at a dual-monitor computer setup in an office or lab space. A whiteboard covered with sketches and notes fills the background, while code and software windows are visible on the screens. A keyboard, mouse, and drawing tablet rest on the desk, suggesting a technical or creative workflow.ruffle logo. Yellow text on a blue background.
