In this section of the essay I will briefly answer these questions in connection to the Lumiere Ghosting Project and the invention and construction process for the CompuObscura.

While there are elements of this new media development project that are quite similar to many new media rhetoric, writing and critical theory projects currently underway around the country (Liestol, Morrison & Rasmussen, Hansen, Samsel & Wimberley), my colleagues and I feel that with the Lumiere Ghosting Project, we have stumbled on a useful pedagogy and technological development model that may help inform and possibly improve how a diverse range of new media theory and practice can be combined into one large scale, collaborative production.
