There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

"Design really embodies what we don't use, what doesn't get transferred from an object to its reader, viewer, player, or user. This is also why design is the register on which things become cool. Coolness isn't consumable. Cool isn't what something is about, but just what it is, all at once," writes Ian Bogost, professor in the School of Literature, Media, and Communication.
