  • Lyon says speech act theory is big among rhet-comp students at SUNY-Buffalo. She was surprised @ how little it's used by OSU grad students. #
  • Lyon adds that J.L. Austin is more "playful" and "funny" in Philosophical Papers. But HTDTWW lectures are slimmer, easier to understand. #
  • Lyon hands out crash course handout re: J.L. Austin. Suggests Wikipedia entry, the "How to Do Things With Words" lectures as starting place. #
  • Lyon suggests that Burke's discush of Austin and Hannah Arendt's discush of in-the-moment performativity are useful for sussing this out #
  • Lyon continues: But even if you can't identify to the point of "being" Trayvon Martin, why do ppl like to say it? Performative question. #
  • Lyon questions rhetorical identification in phenomena like "We are Trayvon Martin." Questions whether we can truly identify @ that level. #

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2012-05-04

  • Hey #cw2012 Magnolia Grill in Durham is 3-time James Beard award winner and it's *closing* on 5/31. Reservations FTW. http://t.co/MTGAIEKy #
  • Amazing. Video game based on Thoreau’s ‘Walden’ promises to be extremely ironic http://t.co/ZxQ6LhNz via @grist #
  • This Q&A was so active that it had to be cut off. How often does that happen! Pls feel free to send ?s, I'm doing dinner w/ Lyon & can ask #
  • Cynthia Selfe says something helpful: so, votes or solutions as Heideggerian technologies that are like "fixes"? #
  • rhetoricians have been so constrained by definitions of deliberation handed down from Aristotle that haven't pursued alternative defs (2/2) #
  • Lyon acknowledges that "enactment of power in the moment thru discourse" is not new really. Foucault. Wittgenstein. But argues that (1/2) #
  • Lyon: "I have other approaches to identification, but [for today] I'm trying not to muddy the water." #
  • I would be curious to see Lyon's quote/citation from Burke about this alleged end game. Will ask her about that at dinner. #
  • Lyon: will allow us to be "alike" or completely "understanding the mind of" al-Obeidy, who was raped by Libyan government. (2/2) #
  • Lyon argues that Burke has an end game: we'll talk long enough and identify enough that we'll all be alike. But no amount of talking (1/2) #
  • Lyon claims that identification is based on premise that you understand the other person's mind. Hesford responds, "That's way beyond Burke" #
  • .@LeslieABC wisely asks Arabella Lyon, "Can you tell us more about why identification is violence?" Eager to hear this answer. #
  • Yeah. RT @LeslieABC I think Lyons is just arguing that she wants a different terministic screen. One that, I'd say, is synonymous with Burke #
  • Lyon on Aristotle saying that persuasion is not force: "He lies! Persuasion is force. Identification is violence." #
  • Cynthia Selfe asks Lyon to clarify what she means by "political." Lyon says "the struggle over the life world." #
  • Lyon clarifies that she's talking about in-the-moment, right-now deliberation. "For long-term change, you'd need a different theory." #
  • Lyon: al-Obeidy is operating way outside her norms in this event. Journalists are more w/in their norms but are still negotiating them. #
  • Lyon: Suggests that this event was public deliberation "even though we're not used to thinking of it that way." (Umm…I think I was?) #
  • Lyon: By bursting into journalist's breakfast time at hotel, Al-obeidy creates space for engagement, creates shared interest. #
  • Argues that al-Obeidy (in the video) illustrates positioned potential. She knows the hotel is where she can find journalists, goes there. #
  • Lyon suggests that Facebook, listservs, etc. are "minimally deliberative" because there may not be "hard issues" there. #ouch #
  • Lyon's now showing Youtube clip of Libyan woman bursting into hotel to tell story of her rape to CNN. The clip: http://t.co/jb4JhIPR #
  • .@LeslieABC asks Lyon for def of deliberation: "The many coming to action … action as close to teleology as I'm willing to get" #
  • Suggestions so far: Stuart Hall on identity thru representation, Ratcliffe's Rhetorical Listening. Thx @paschkejohannes @warhetor #
  • and grad students in room are eager to consider alternative models, put finger on what exactly is new/different here. (2/2) #
  • PS, those responding w/ reading suggestions/alternative critiques of Burke, please keep those coming! Grad WS w Arabella is tomorrow (1/2) #
  • Re: identification as idealistic, Wendy Hesford asks about role of imbued normativity in the alleged alternative of participatory space? #
  • Cindy Selfe suggests that social media (Facebook?) may be just such an open deliberative space–there is no terminus like "publish the book" #
  • Lyon argues that persuasion inherently implies terminus, therefore it is not useful theory for deliberation. #
  • Lyon: We have usually thought of deliberation as a process with a terminus (which is usually concensus). And that's the mistake, she says. #
  • Only diff I've elicited so far: Arendt's inter-est = a search for shared agency, Burke's identification allows for that but it's not auto. #
  • Lyon interprets Arendt: inter-est as '"something … which lies betw. people & therefore can relate and bind them together" #feelsburkey #
  • Lyon now turning to Hannah Arendt's concept of "interest" as alternative to Burke's identification, but they sound very very similar to me. #
  • Lyon: identification as"a relationship of transcendent violence and exploitation." I'm still working on how this stuff diverges from Burke. #
  • Lyon acknowledges that Burke's dialectic of identification/division, at its best, is unstable and muddy. Even for Burke not always clearcut. #
  • Lyon: rhetorical theory of identification ignores difference, too monologic, privileges sameness. I'm not sold yet but giving it a chance. #
  • Live-tweeting for the next 1.5 hrs from Arabella Lyon's talk "Performative Deliberation: Deliberative Theory for the Twenty-First Century" #
  • Oh Lunchbox Awesome Tumblr, you're so lunchy and awesome. Bento boxes that look like ninja turtles, etc. http://t.co/6A5AYH8h #

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2012-03-23

  • Sweet, someone finally mentioned that "not seeing an activity as collaboration/writing/thinking" radically predates social media #4c12 #e3 #
  • .@cgerben "Don't think any of my study participants would leave Facebook and say 'I just collaborated today.'" #4c12 #e3 #
  • Just asked @cgerben a question that @ErikaTJ sent to me from elsewhere. Sweet. #4c12 #e3 #
  • Surprised no one has mentioned yet that every f2f conversation, too, has unique set of constraints/affordances/context. #4c12 #e3 #
  • Hope @cgerben is talking to @Aesthetically about rhetorical affordance/constraint (talk amongst urselves re Facebook "Like" button) #4c12 #
  • .@cgerben Also how soc media conversations "die" collaboratively–everyone stops talking bc enough has been said/been talked out? #4c12 #e3 #
  • .@cgerben Points to face that if convo is happening on *your* Facebook page, *you* can stop or delete the convo. Or let it ride. #4c12 #e3 #
  • .@cgerben suggests that soc media features like the "Like," ability to chg profile pic, timestamp may up potential 4 collaboration #4c12 #e3 #
  • .@cgerben's whole prez on his web site! Redefining the Texts: Expanding Spectrum of Collab thru Discourse Analysis
    of Online Writing #4c12 #
  • Remember when @prezi was new enough that you could make a Tweet joke about dramamine etc.? #missthosedays #4c12 #
  • Re: collaboration metaphors, I want to see multiplicity. Convo metaphor is good, but need others: Techne, network, jazz @kstedman #4c12 #
  • John Pell suggests that social media is not ontologically real. #provocative #e3 #4c12 #
  • W. Duffy seeking other/more metaphors for collaboration. I'm with him on that one. He's rollin' w/ Byron Hawk's techne metaphor #e3 #4c12 #
  • W. Duffy: "We don't need a def of collaboration to police it. We need rhetorical framework 4 productive techniques/dispositions." #4c12 #e3 #
  • Wow, it's like this guy is reading my Program of Study. But I sense two roads about to diverge. #4c12 #e3 #
  • William Duffy: Our field's over-reliance on 80s metaphor of conversation as model for collaboration, social constructionism. #agreed #4c12 #
  • W. Duffy leaning on Ede and Lunsford re: complication of defining collaboration. (Don't we all? I do). #4c12 #e3 #
  • William Duffy asks us to think about collaboration itself as a technology…but also asks, what is collaboration? #e3 #4c12 #
  • Okay, with that out of the way, onward to #E3 Inventing the Infinite Text: Social Media as Gateway to Theories of Collaboration #4c12 #
  • .@wallsdouglas "Ecologies aren't metaphors anymore. They are knowable and traceable." Literacy narratives/metadata to see it. #4c12 #d27 #
  • .@wallsdouglas Suggests FBbook creates user presence even when user not there FB. On Twitter ur not present when ur not present. #4c12 #d27 #
  • Soc med ecology example from @wallsdouglas: X updates Facebook. Y reports news to non-FB-user Z who emails X about the update. #4c12 #d27 #
  • My wireless sucked during @wallsdouglas' prez so ur getting the tweets now, sorry! Looking @ ecologies of literacy thru soc media #4c12 #d27 #
  • Without naming names here…if Youtube videos are critical to your presentation, you shoulda downloaded stable copies. KeepVid it. #4c12 #
  • Hawisher cont: Calling them ebooks devalues them. @selfe2 responds "It's not that I don't like books!" Everyone laughs. #4c12 #c14 #
  • Gail Hawisher talking about one of very few things she disagrees with @selfe2 on: She feels what's on CCDP are *books*, not ebooks. #4c12 #
  • Hey Miller, I want to see studies on that to verify. Personally doubt young ppl THAT unaware of public/private nature of online space #4c12 #
  • R. Miller says students "largely not aware of what they're publishing." Says they think it's private. #4c12 #
  • Dammit, never got a chance to tweet the word "capacious" from @selfe2's title “A More Capacious Conception” #4c12 #capacious #
  • C. @selfe2 adorably slips up at end: "Let's see what we can invent together re: long-form scholarly books–I mean projects." #4c12 #c14 #
  • Personal note here re: C. @selfe2's point: she's also huge advocate of *accessible* multimodality. TLL vids all have text transcripts. #4c12 #
  • C. @selfe2 Frames using multiple semiotic channels as increasing likelihood of communicating transnationally across cultures/contexts #4c12 #
  • Cynthia @selfe2 arguing that "new digital environments offer affordances [like] animation, audio … and this is no minor matter" #4c12 #c14 #

  • Now C. @selfe2 chatting up Transnational Literate Lives from Selfe/Hawisher/Patrick Berry. http://t.co/dE8v9XOt #4c12 #
  • Love how C. @selfe2 always seems to be full of wonder, fun, purpose. On her slide about Delagrange: "Whee! How cool is that!" #4c12 #c14 #
  • Delagrange's project focuses on embodiment visual rhetoric + canon of arrangement in actual visual practice. A must-read IMO #4c12 #
  • C. @selfe2 showing Susan Delagrange's "Technologies of Wonder", just won the 2012 Horner Oustanding Book Award http://t.co/eo0L6Gud #4c12 #
  • Will admit my bias: I'm a big fan of CCDP (thru Utah State). That will color my upcoming tweets. #4c12 #c14 #
  • C. @selfe2 giving pep talk re peer-reviewed Computers and Composition Digital Press, only born-digital projects http://t.co/omHulpT3 #4c12 #
  • Ah, here comes Cindy @selfe2. Feel privileged to work with her day-to-day at Ohio State, but she still rivets me at conferences. #4c12 #c14 #

  • R. Miller: Now ranting about Chat Roulette, fastest growing web site of 2011. Asked audience how many had tried it. About 6 of us. #4c12 #
  • R. Miller: "And that whole news story did nothing to stop that sort of thing from happening" [Re: Twitter spying] #4c12 #
  • R. Miller discussing guy who invited others to spy on his roommate via Twitter. Was billed as "tech genius." For having Twitter acct? #4c12 #
  • R. Miller Was thinking about "ethics of the virtual world" and living in a "present where there is no privacy" a la Wikileaks etc #4c12 #c14 #
  • R. Miller now talking about interactive Al Gore Inconvenient Truth iBook that integrates your location into the weather narrative #4c12 #c14 #

  • Ceraso draws attention to Audacity as visually representing sound, making sound's multimodality explicit. #4c12 #b16 #
