I've acquired a massive amount of materials on all sorts of topics related to this class that we aren't going to be using. I'm going to share some of those here, organized roughly by primary topic, in case you are interested in exploring more (or want to search for mixtape items). I will add to this as I have time, so check back for more. Also look at the Group Project Resources pages, as I'm not reposting any of those items here.
