Apparently there's currently discussion in science (humanities in particular) about whether video essays could be accepted as academic writing on par with the academic papers we currently have

I think that's awesome as fuck tbh

#brief ramble #a lot of “texts” these days are visual media #it only makes sense that discussion of it should be able to emulate this #and so many video essayists already do academia level research and writing #philosophy tube #hbomberguy #defunctland #come to mind especially #and a lot of media analysis these days comes in form of video essays #same with sociology #jessie gender #sarah z #alexander avila #cj the x #and so many more #obviously academic video essays would have a bunch of extra requirements and citation guidelines #and you probably cant put in that many jokes #but maybe itll also help make academia more accessible??#oh hey and maybe the whole plagiarism thing wouldnt go as unchecked #honestly the day 'cj the x' becomes an academic source i am rejoining the science #that guy just makes my brain vibrate on the exactly right frequency
