Believe it or not, there are very few DH projects that explicitly take Memphis as a subject. How much can we do to fix that today? I suggest working in groups to come up with ideas for Memphis-themed DH projects or websites and then doing as much as we can in a single session to make the project a reality.
Here are just a few of the resources that feature Memphis data or content:
