Border Visions: Image Portfolio Activities
Web Connections for the Image Portfolio

The Image Portfolio in Beyond Borders complements all of the chapters and therefore has connections to all of the thematic Web Research Activities. Patricia Rodriguez's "La Fruta del Diablo" relates very well to "How Many Sides Does a Border Have?" while Hulleah Tsinhahjinnie's "Damn, There Does the Neighborhood" will pose new questions in relation to "Electronic Frontiers: Cyberspace and the West." The "Turning from the Millenium" images are an excellent piece to examine in conjunction with "The Web and a Sense of Place and Commmunity." Peter Menzel's "Robo-Babies" provokes questions about technology and globalization and would make interesting viewing in relation to "The Shape of Stories: Digital Storytelling, Hypertext Poetry, and New Multimedia Expressions." Pedro Meyer's "Biblical Times and Biblical Times Annotated" is probably the best match with "The Shape of Stories," however. The "Black Pantheon" series of photographs works well with "Identity in Cyberspace." The images by Martha Rosler, Dang Ngo, Peter Menzel, and the Benetton Ads all relate well with "Democracy, Difference, and Globalization" and "Virtual Tourism."
