  • The Essay As Art Form
    The Essay as Art Form Emily LaBarge A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Royal College of Art for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2016 Royal College of Art 2 Copyright This text represents the submission for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Royal College of Art. This copy has been supplied for the purpose of research for private study, on the understanding that it is copyright material, and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgment. 3 Abstract Beginning with Montaigne’s essayistic dictum Que sais je? — ‘What do I know?’ — this PhD thesis examines the literary history, formal qualities, and theoretical underpinnings of the personal essay to both investigate and to practice its relevance as an approach to writing about art. The thesis proposes the essay as intrinsically linked to research, critical writing, and art making; it is a literary method that embodies the real experience of attempting to answer a question. The essay is a processual and reflexive mode of enquiry: a form that conveys not just the essayist’s thought, but the sense and texture of its movement as it attempts to understand its object. It is often invoked, across disciplines, in reference to the possibility of a more liberal sense of creative practice — one that conceptually and stylistically privileges collage, fragmentation, hybridity, chance, open-endedness, and the meander. Within this question of the essay as form, the thesis contains two distinct and parallel strands of analysis — subject matter and essay writing as research.

  • ENC 1136: Multimodal Writing & Digital Literacy ENC1136
    ENC 1136: Multimodal Writing & Digital Literacy ENC1136 (Section 9122, Class 23684, SP20) Brandon Murakami MWF:3 (9:35-10:25a) [email protected] Room: M: WEIL 408D / WF: WEIL 408E OH: TBA COURSE DESCRIPTION Multimodal Composition teaches digital literacy and digital creativity. This course teaches students to compose and circulate multimodal documents in order to convey creative, well- researched, carefully crafted, and attentively written information through digital platforms and multimodal documents. This course promotes digital writing and research as central to academic, civic, and personal expression. COURSE OBJECTIVES Multimodal writing objectives are designed to teach students how to compose, revise, and circulate information in digital forms. The course emphasizes: • Applying composing processes in digital forms • Demonstrating invention/creativity approaches when working with digital resources and tools • Choosing which digital tools best serve contextual needs • Creating documents in six different forms that contribute to multimodal production (see below) • Using problem-solving methods to navigate digital tools • Appraising methods for self-guided learning about emerging digital tools (i.e. learning how to learn) REQUIRED MATERIALS Note: Many of the “readings” assigned in this class will be online tutorials for using the digital tools needed to compose, produce, and circulate the assigned documents. Because the course focuses on hands-on, active production, the focus of readings often will be tutorials and student work for critique. All texts will be provided on our course website on Canvas. GENERAL EDUCATION OBJECTIVES: COMPOSITION (C) Composition courses provide instruction in the methods and conventions of standard written English (i.e. grammar, punctuation, usage) and the techniques that produce effective texts.

  • ULMER - Introduction: Electracy 1 to Comment on SPECIFIC PARAGRAPHS, Click on the Speech Bubble Next to That Paragraph
    ULMER - Introduction: Electracy 1 To comment on SPECIFIC PARAGRAPHS, click on the speech bubble next to that paragraph. There is an analogy for what we are doing when we collaboratively explore the possibilities of new media. We are to the Internet what students of Plato and Aristotle were to the Academy and Lyceum. When the Greeks invented alphabetic writing they were engaged in a civilizational shift from one apparatus to another (from orality to literacy). They invented not only alphabetic writing but also a new institution (School) within which the practices of writing were devised. Here is the salient point: all the operators of “science” as a worldview had to be invented, by distinguishing from religion a new possibility of reason. Electracy similarly is being invented, not to replace religion and science (orality and literacy), but to supplement them with a third dimension of thought, practice, and identity. “Electracy” is to digital media what literacy is to alphabetic writing: an apparatus, or social machine, partly technological, partly institutional. We take for granted now the skill set that orients literate people to the collective mnemonics that confront anyone entering a library or classroom today. Grammatology (the history and theory of writing) shows that the invention of literacy included also a new experience of thought that led to inventions of identity as well: individual selfhood and the democratic state. Thus there are three interrelated invention streams forming a matrix of possibilities for electracy, only one of which is technological. There is no technological determinism, other than the fundamental law of change: that everything is mutating together into something other, different, with major losses and gains.
