Blogging&#8211;whatever else<br \/>\ncan be said of it&#8211;gives folks a fuller presence at the conference (judging by<br \/>\nthe last two Cs); this idea&#8211;of quasi-professional connection&#8211;is what we were just beginning to get at in the <a href=\"http:\/\/kairosnews.org\/node\/4642\">SIG<\/a> on<br \/>\nFriday evening.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I made it to the<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/33032196@N00\/118211381\/\">chair&#8217;s address<\/a><br \/>\nand <i>E.28 Why Plagiarism Makes Sense in the Digital Age: Copying, Remixing and<br \/>\nComposing<\/i> on Thursday. I would&#8217;ve liked to catch the sessions on<br \/>\nblogging and\/or podcasting, but I hadn&#8217;t eaten much before my session in<br \/>\nComputers Connection, and the fifteen minute interlude between sessions wasn&#8217;t<br \/>\nlong enough to get that accomplished. The chair&#8217;s address&#8211;&quot;Riding a One-Eyed<br \/>\nHorse&quot;: Reining In and Fencing Out&#8211;worked through a few entangled claims about<br \/>\nthe field&#8217;s ocular turn&#8211;the vis-rhet push, if we want to call it that.<br \/>\nWooten&#8217;s framing of technologies was hyperbolic and overtly negative in some<br \/>\ncases (even if she was only suggesting a critical framework rather than clearly<br \/>\nendorsing such positions). It was a mix of literary reference, personal<br \/>\nanecdote, and critique of privileging visual modalities in our teaching.<br \/>\nShe told about her own first experience of the &quot;tyranny of the image&quot;: a<br \/>\nnewscast about trees that featured a clipart image of a tree in the display&#8217;s<br \/>\ncorner. I wasn&#8217;t comfortable with the tie between the images in Guaman<br \/>\nPoma&#8217;s <i>First New Chronicle and Good Government<\/i> (a staple in Pratt&#8217;s<br \/>\nfamous address on contact zones) and the computer. I&#8217;ll have to wait for<br \/>\nthe <i>CCC<\/i> version to make sense of that. And the reference to<br \/>\ntechnology as a hobby horse was enough to leave me thinking I was missing<br \/>\nWooten&#8217;s broader point. Noticed that near the end of the talk &#8220;one-eyed horse&#8221; showed on the teleprompter as &#8220;one idea horse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>E.28 <i>Why Plagiarism Makes Sense in the Digital Age<\/i> offered primer to<br \/>\ncopyright and remix, including examples of the remix: a tangelo and Sprite<br \/>\nRe-mix. My notes are thin, and it wouldn&#8217;t add anything to get it wrong.<br \/>\nSelber&#8217;s stuff on parodic trailers (<i>The Shining<\/i> trailer redone), design<br \/>\npatterns as micro-genres (and copyright considerations of design patterns), and<br \/>\nalso breadcrumbing, a term that has come up in cybercartography (rel. to traces,<br \/>\npaths), too, left me with some good stuff to think about. The panel also<br \/>\nprovoked questions about just what constitutes re-mix. What distinguishes<br \/>\nre-mix from revision or one-text alteration? When does re-mix become an empty<br \/>\nsignifier for change or modification?<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, I caught <i>F.15 The Rhetorics of Identification: Or, Me and You<br \/>\nand You and Me, So Happy Together?<\/i> followed by <i>G.23 Mediating Genres:<br \/>\nExamining Antecedent Genres as Discursive Resources in Academic Public Spheres<\/i>.<br \/>\nEach of these panels was extraordinary in its own right, but they also shared an<br \/>\nuncanny and surprising coordination. Two of the three papers on F.15<br \/>\ninvolved mirror neurons, the recent neurophysiological discovery of synapses<br \/>\nthat fire the same way for an action whether it is carried out by you or by me<br \/>\n(your hand grasps, the synapses fire <i>as if<\/i> my hand grasped). Mirror<br \/>\nneurons are an exacting exemplar for consubstantiality. The first paper<br \/>\ngot at this issue through film&#8211;specifically &quot;inducements to identify,&quot; and<br \/>\nresolving the propositional quality of identity and suggesting identity as an<br \/>\nacting together of subject and object (here, a tie to genre and uptake).<br \/>\nThe third paper&#8211;so theoretically rich that my notes were soon forgotten&#8211;dealt<br \/>\nwith the equalization of identification, consubstantiality and sociality, while<br \/>\nworking toward a &quot;constitutive mimesis&quot; and &quot;mimetico-affective contagion.&quot;<br \/>\nAnd the second paper&#8211;also very strong and worthwhile&#8211;engaged an &quot;emergent<br \/>\nrhetoric of randomness&quot; through matters of causality, randomness and<br \/>\nbluffing&#8211;particular to poker. The panel on genre was an<br \/>\neasy choice because we&#8217;re reading Devitt&#8217;s book for tomorrow&#8217;s 712 (Spinuzzi&#8217;s<br \/>\n<i>Tracing Genres<\/i> is up next week). Bawarshi led off with a paper on<br \/>\nuptake&#8211;the space between genre and context. Uptakes are oftentimes<br \/>\nconceptual and so, as was resolved in the Q&amp;A, they&#8217;re difficult to study using<br \/>\nempirical frameworks. Uptakes correlate to the perlocutionary effects<br \/>\n(from speech act theory), but rather than applying to utterances, uptakes name<br \/>\nthe living memory of a genre&#8211;a genre&#8217;s persistence. He also suggested<br \/>\nuptake profiles&#8211;sketches of sorts that would characterize &quot;coordinated uptake&quot;<br \/>\nor &quot;learned recognitions of significances&quot; that are also shared. Because<br \/>\nimitation involves uptake (in typified social action), I sensed a connection&#8211;an<br \/>\necho&#8211;between these papers and the previous panel. In the second paper, Devitt<br \/>\nworked at the problem of how genres interact: genre intertextuality or &quot;intergenerality.&quot;<br \/>\nSpecifically, Devitt dealt with individuals and their genre<br \/>\nrepertoires&#8211;especially important for her larger interest in teaching genre<br \/>\nawareness. Students, she said, come in with genres, and this genre<br \/>\nportability\/transfer can be useful for teaching genre awareness. She<br \/>\nre-emphasized two points when wrapping up: 1) People do not write in a genre<br \/>\nvacuum; and 2) People adhere to known genres even while adapting to new genres.<br \/>\nThe final two papers on the panel looked at the evolution of the petition as a<br \/>\ngenre and the genealogy of email, particularly student-professor email<br \/>\ninterchanges in the context of Anne Freadman&#8217;s work on uptake. <\/p>\n<p>Later in the day I went to <i>J.13 Brining Techne Front and Center: Examining<br \/>\nthe Material of the Art of Writing<\/i> and then the blogging SIG. Saturday<br \/>\nmorning it was <i>K.23 From Panel to Gallery: Twelve Digital Writings, One<br \/>\nInstallation<\/i> and <i>L.04 New Media, New Curricula<\/i>. <\/p>\n<p>Attended six panels, not counting my own slot at Computer Connections, the<br \/>\nchair&#8217;s address, and the SIG. Not bad. I missed a bunch that I<br \/>\nwould&#8217;ve liked to attend, but I felt like crud on Friday and so opted for a<br \/>\nmid-day nap rather than grinding myself into conference dust. <\/p>\n<p>Travels home were safe and good for pushing through a bit of reading.<br \/>\nEven if the flight home on United (a.k.a. Sauna Skyways) was delayed an<br \/>\nhour-and-a-half and also turned out to be the warmest flight I&#8217;ve ever suffered<br \/>\nthrough (plus 90F in the cabin, I swear), it was much better<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.earthwidemoth.com\/mt\/archives\/000752.html\">than last year&#8217;s<br \/>\ntrip<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">\u23f3 Approximate reading time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 4<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">mins<\/span><\/span>Finally I&#8217;m resetting the needle to a groove, settling in for the intensive few weeks until semester&#8217;s end, and shaking off the thrill of conversation and catching up throughout the stay in Chicago.
